ASRS Meeting Coverage Day 3: DR Biomarkers and Gene Tx for Achromatopsia

Can a quantitative analysis of OCT images detect early diabetic retinopathy in patients without symptoms? New Retina Radio spoke with Jennifer Lim, MD, whose research team sought to learn whether imaging analyses of photoreceptor length and reflectivity parameters could serve as a biomarker for disease detection. 

We also sat down with Lejla Vajzovic, MD, who shared data on a pair of phase 1 studies assessing the safety and efficacy of two gene therapies for achromatopsia. One of those two drugs will be going on for further study. Which one? Stick with us to find out.
