Phase 4 Study: Long-term Safety and Efficacy of NT-501 in MacTel Type 2, Including Sham Procedure Participants
What this study is about
The purpose of this global, conducted at multiple hospitals, where both patients and doctors know the treatment given, Phase 4 clinical extension study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of revakinagene taroretcel-lwey (Encelto™; hereinafter referred to as NT-501), in participants with macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel) who previously received the intraocular implant in a Phase 1, Phase 2, or Phase 3 clinical study.

Inclusion criteria
- To be eligible to participate in this study, an individual participant must meet all the following criteria: 1. Male or female adult participants who previously completed an NT-501 MacTel clinical study and: 1. Arm 1: received NT-501 intraocular implant in either Phase 3 study (NTMT-03-A or NTMT-03-B) 2. Arm 2: received NT-501 intraocular implant in the Phase 1 study (NTMT-01), Phase 2 study (NTMT-02), or in the substudy of the Phase 1 and Phase 2 extension study (NTMT-01/02E) Note: participants who received NT-501 in both eyes (ie, participated in study NTMT-02B) will be enrolled in either Arm 1 or Arm 2 based on the study in which the first NT 501 was implanted (ie, participants who received the first implant in a Phase 3 study will be enrolled in Arm 1 and those who received the first implant in the Phase 1 study or Phase 2 study will be enrolled in Arm 2). 3. Arm 3: underwent the sham procedure in either Phase 3 study (NTMT-03-A or NTMT-03-B) 2

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
