(THE FOUNDATION) FUNDED RESEARCHERS ARE ACHIEVING REMARKABLE SUCCESS IN DISCOVERING, TESTING AND DELIVERING TO PATIENTS A WIDE RANGE OF PROMISING THERAPIES TO PREVENT, STOP THE PROGRESSION OF, AND CURE BLINDNESS DUE TO RETINAL DEGENERATIVE DISEASES. THE FOUNDATION HAS ENCUMBRANCES OF $39 MILLION, NOT INCLUDED ON OUR JUNE 30 FINANCIAL REPORT, FOR ACTIVE RESEARCH PROJECTS THAT HAVE FUTURE RESEARCH MILESTONES. OUR RESEARCH OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE'S SPENDING PLAN INCLUDES SPENDING AT AN AVERAGE OF $21 MILLION ANNUALLY TO SUPPORT FUTURE RESEARCH.AS OF THE END OF OUR FISCAL YEAR 2022, THE FOUNDATION'S RESEARCH GRANTS PROGRAM IS FUNDING 81 GRANTS BEING CONDUCTED BY MORE THAN 105 INVESTIGATORS AT 70 INSTITUTIONS, EYE HOSPITALS AND UNIVERSITIES IN THE U.S. AND AROUND THE WORLD. A SAMPLING OF THE RESEARCH PROJECTS FUNDED ARE LISTED BELOW.HOMOLOGY-INDEPENDENT GENOME EDITING FOR TREATMENT OF STARGARDT DISEASEIVANA TRAPANI, PHD, UNIVERSIT DEGLI STUDI DI NAPOLI "FEDERICO II" NAPLES, ITALYGENE THERAPY DEVELOPMENT FOR STARGARDT DISEASE IS CHALLENGING BECAUSE ABCA4, THE MUTATED GENE CAUSING STARGARDT DISEASE, IS TOO LARGE FOR MOST VIRAL DELIVERY SYSTEMS. DR. TRAPANI IS EVALUATING A HIGHLY EFFICIENT CRISPR/CAS9 GENE-EDITING TECHNOLOGY - HOMOLOGY INDEPENDENT TARGETED INSERTION (HITI) - TO ADDRESS MUTATIONS IN ABCA4. HER EARLY PROOF-OF-CONCEPT STUDIES ARE BEING PERFORMED IN A STARGARDT DISEASE MOUSE MODEL AND A THREE-DIMENSIONAL RETINAL ORGANOID IN A DISH.ADAR-BASED RNA EDITING AS A POTENTIAL THERAPY FOR INHERITED RETINAL DEGENERATIONSDROR SHARON, PHD, HADASSAH-HEBREW UNIVERSITY MEDICAL CENTERMANY EMERGING THERAPIES TARGET MUTATIONS IN OUR GENES - OUR DNA. DR. SHARON IS INVESTIGATING A NEW TOOL FOR EDITING RNA - THE GENETIC MESSAGES DERIVED FROM DNA WHICH ARE USED BY OUR CELLS TO PRODUCE PROTEINS. KNOWN AS "INTRINSIC ADENOSINE DEAMINASE ACTING ON RNA, OR ADAR, THE TECHNOLOGY SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSES G-TO-A MUTATIONS. DR. SHARON BELIEVES THAT ABOUT 30 PERCENT OF THE MOST COMMONLY REPORTED IRD-CAUSING MUTATIONS CAN BE TARGETED FOR ADAR EDITING (MAINLY IN RELATIVELY LARGE GENES SUCH AS ABCA4 AND USH2A). HIS LAB IS EVALUATING THE TECHNOLOGY IN CELLS AND MOUSE MODELS OF RETINAL DISEASE.PRIME EDITING FOR USHER SYNDROME TYPE 2ABENCE GYORGY, MD, PHD, INSTITUTE OF MOLECULAR AND CLINICAL OPHTHALMOLOGY BASELDR. GYORGY IS DEVELOPING A GENE CORRECTION STRATEGY KNOWN AS PRIME EDITING, A NOVEL TECHNOLOGY THAT IS IN SOME WAYS SIMILAR TO GENE EDITING WITH CRISPR/CAS9, BUT POTENTIALLY MORE PRECISE AND EFFICIENT. INSTEAD OF CUTTING THE DOUBLE STRANDS OF DNA, IT NICKS THE DNA, WHICH MAY BE A PREFERRED APPROACH TO CORRECTING SINGLE-LETTER MUTATIONS. DR. GYORGY IS DEVELOPING A PRIME EDITING TREATMENT TO INSERT THE MISSING G NUCLEOTIDE INTO RETINAL CELLS WITH THE RELATIVELY COMMON USH2A MUTATION DEL2299G. IN ORDER TO FACILITATE TRANSLATION OF THIS CONCEPT TO THE CLINIC, HE WILL EVALUATE THE THERAPY IN HUMAN RETINAL EXPLANTS, HUMAN ENGINEERED RETINAL ORGANOIDS AND HUMANIZED MOUSE MODELS. IF THE APPROACH IS SUCCESSFUL, IT MAY BE APPLIED TO OTHER MUTATIONS AND IRDS.	Desc
