The development of PRIMA accepted in the dry form of Macular Degeneration Related to Age (dry AMD), a major medical need not covered

Paris, June 13, 2017 – 7:00 CET – Pixium Vision (FR0011950641 – PIX), a company that develops vision systems bionics innovative to enable patients with vision loss to live more independently, continuing its discussions with the u.s. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in a favourable context, in order to prepare the first settlements clinical human of PRIMA, her second system incorporating an implant photovoltaic subretinal miniaturized.

All of the clinical data, reinforced by the evidence presented during the world congress of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO) in may 2017, in particular the data of behavioral analysis in the non-human primate, has been discussed with the FDA in the context of the review of the regulatory process in the United States. Pixium Vision is working to complete a record of assessment for a clinical study of feasibility early (Early Feasibility Study) in the dry AMD. The feasibility program of early assessment, in a limited number of patients, medical devices, and in order to validate the concept of therapy and safety.
