progression of macular atrophy compared to placebo in subjects with Stargardt disease.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Macular atrophy secondary to a disease other than STGD

- Mutations of genes, other than ABCA4, that are associated with retinal degeneration

- Surgery in the study eye in the past 3 months

- Prior participation in a gene therapy or stem cell clinical trial for STGD

- Recent participation in a clinical trial for STGD evaluating a complement inhibitor or
vitamin A derivative
