Overview

Autologous iPSC-derived RPE is a cell therapy designed to treat geographic atrophy (GA) associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). This therapeutic approach involves generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a patient's own somatic cells, differentiating these iPSCs into retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, and subsequently transplanting these autologous RPE cells into the subretinal space of the same patient. The primary objective is to replace degenerated RPE cells, thereby aiming to rescue the overlying neurosensory retina from further degeneration. In some clinical applications, the RPE cells are grown as a monolayer on a biodegradable poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) scaffold prior to transplantation. Immunosuppressive medications are also administered to mitigate the risk of transplant rejection.
