A Phase 1/2 Study of AURN001 in Subjects With Corneal Edema Secondary to Corneal Endothelial Dysfunction (ABA-1)
United States, Canada97 participantsStarted 2023-10-18
Plain-language summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare different doses of AURN001 in patients with corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction. The main questions the clinical trial aims to answer are whether AURN001 effective and safe. Participants will receive a single injection of AURN001. A comparison between low, medium, and high doses of AURN001 against the contribution of each element, cells alone and Y27632 alone, will be conducted to determine the effects on corneal edema.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Have a diagnosis of corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction, requiring surgery (full- or partial-thickness endothelial keratoplasty)
* BCVA between 65 Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters (i.e., 0.4 LogMAR or approximate 20/50 Snellen equivalent) and 5 ETDRS letters (i.e., 1.6 LogMAR or approximate 20/800 Snellen equivalent)
Exclusion Criteria:
* Have pre-operative corneal epithelial, sub-epithelial or stromal scarring or other opacity that is paracentral/central and visually significant, but not suspected to be secondary to corneal endothelial disease with the potential to improve from treatment in the study eye
* Have history or presence of an ocular disease other than corneal endothelial dysfunction that could affect vision or safety assessments
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
