  • Genetic Defects of CHM and Visual Acuity Outcome in 24 Choroideremia
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genetic defects of CHM and visual acuity outcome in 24 choroideremia patients from 16 Japanese families Takaaki Hayashi1,2*, Shuhei Kameya3, Kei Mizobuchi2, Daiki Kubota3, Sachiko Kikuchi3, Kazutoshi Yoshitake4, Atsushi Mizota5, Akira Murakami6, Takeshi Iwata4 & Tadashi Nakano2 Choroideremia (CHM) is an incurable progressive chorioretinal dystrophy. Little is known about the natural disease course of visual acuity in the Japanese population. We aimed to investigate the genetic spectrum of the CHM gene and visual acuity outcomes in 24 CHM patients from 16 Japanese families. We measured decimal best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at presentation and follow-up, converted to logMAR units for statistical analysis. Sanger and/or whole-exome sequencing were performed to identify pathogenic CHM variants/deletions. The median age at presentation was 37.0 years (range, 5–76 years). The mean follow-up interval was 8.2 years. BCVA of the better-seeing eye at presentation was signifcantly worsened with increasing age (r = 0.515, p < 0.01), with a high rate of BCVA decline in patients > 40 years old. A Kaplan–Meier survival curve suggested that a BCVA of Snellen equivalent 20/40 at follow-up remains until the ffties. Fourteen pathogenic variants, 6 of which were novel [c.49 + 5G > A, c.116 + 5G > A, p.(Gly176Glu, Glu177Ter), p.Tyr531Ter, an exon 2 deletion, and a 5.0-Mb deletion], were identifed in 15 families. No variant was found in one family only. Our BCVA outcome data are useful for predicting visual prognosis and determining the timing of intervention in Japanese patients with CHM variants.

Abstract: Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a genetically variable collection of devastating disorders that lead to significant visual impairment. Advances in genetic characterization over the past two decades have allowed identification of over 260 causative mutations associated with inherited retinal disorders. Thought to be incurable, gene supplementation therapy offers great promise in treating various forms of these blinding conditions. In gene replacement therapy, a disease-causing gene is replaced with a functional copy of the gene. These therapies are designed to slow disease progression and hopefully restore visual function. Gene therapies are typically delivered to target retinal cells by subretinal (SR) or intravitreal (IVT) injection.

MacLaren1,2 1Nuffield Laboratory of Ophthalmology, Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Oxford, Oxford, United Kingdom; Oxford Biomedical Research Centre 2Oxford Eye Hospital, John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, United Kingdom Abstract Purpose—Centripetal retinal degeneration in choroideremia (CHM) leads to early visual field restriction and late central vision loss. The latter marks an acute decline in quality of life but visual prognostication remains challenging. We investigated visual function in CHM by correlating best- corrected visual acuity (BCVA), microperimetry and multimodal imaging. Methods—Fifty-six consecutive CHM patients attending Oxford Eye Hospital were examined with BCVA, 10–2 microperimetry, optical coherence tomography, and fundus autofluorescence (AF). Microperimetry was repeated in 21 eyes and analyzed with Bland-Altman. Kaplan-Meier Europe PMC Funders Author Manuscripts survival plots of eyes retaining 20/20 BCVA were created. Intereye symmetry was assessed. Results—Microperimetry coefficient of repeatability was 1.45 dB. Survival analysis showed an indistinguishable pattern between eyes (median survival 39 years). Macular sensitivity showed a similar decline in right and left eyes, with half-lives of 13.6 years. Zonal analysis showed faster decline nasal to the fovea.
