A Safety and Tolerability Trial of CNTF in Patients with MacTel Type 2
This study is assessing the safety of the NT-501 implant in patients with macular telangiectasia type 2. The device, an implant, is a small capsule of cells that is placed inside the eye. This allows a controlled, sustained release of CNTF directly to the retina.

Study of the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Repeated Doses of an Intravitreal drug in Patients with Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
This Phase 2, year long study will require the recruitment of patients with wet or neovascular age related macular degeneration who are naive to anti-VEGF treatment.The subjects will receive intravitreal injections every 4 weeks of their assigned treatment tier for 3 treatments.

Study to evaluate the use of an implant for patients with macular degeneration
A clinical trial to determine the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ranibizumab delivered through the Implant using three ranibizumab formulation arms compared with the control arm in patients with subfoveal neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study will also evaluate the safety of the RPDS combination product. The study will include screening and randomization visits followed by a treatment period.

Clinical Trial of a new drug for Stargardt’s disease
The purpose of this research study is to find out whether a new drug for Stargardt disease is safe and effective. There are currently no proven treatments for Stargardt’s disease, a disease that leads to blindness in almost all cases.
