Genetic Ophthalmology Disorders Drug Development Pipeline Market Review To 2017 : Radiant Insights,Inc

This report provides an overview of the pipeline landscape for genetic ophthalmological disorders. The report provides comprehensive information on the therapeutics under development and key players involved in therapeutic development for Stargardt disease, Leber congenital amaurosis, Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy, Usher Syndrome and Retinitis pigmentosa, and features dormant and discontinued projects.


Juvenile macular degeneration is a series of inherited eye disorders that affects children and young adults, with the most common form being Stargardt disease, an inherited autosomal recessive syndrome. Leber congenital amaurosis primarily affects the retina, which is the specialized tissue at the back of the eye that detects light and color. It is the most common cause of inherited blindness in childhood. Leber’s hereditary optic neuropathy usually begins in a person's teens or twenties, rare cases may appear in early childhood or later in adulthood. Usher syndrome is characterized by hearing impairment and progressive vision loss. The major symptoms of Usher syndrome are hearing loss and secondary retinitis pigmentosa. Finally, retinitis pigmentosa refers to a group of diseases which cause a slow but progressive vision loss. Symptoms include night blindness and loss of peripheral vision.

The size of these pipelines ranges from six products in Usher syndrome to 54 in retinitis pigmentosa. Gene therapies represent the most common type of therapy among these diseases, followed by small molecules. This reflects the therapeutic aim of repairing the defective gene in order to correct the patient’s phenotype. Likewise, the molecular targets which are acted on are typically clustered around the causative gene within each disease, although there are exceptions. Within retinitis pigmentosa in particular, there is a diversity of molecular targets.
