A RESEARCH PROJECT AT BAYLOR COLLEGE OF MEDICINE IN GENE AND PROTEIN THERAPY FOCUSES ON INAPPROPRIATE CELL DIVISION AND CELL DEATH WITHIN THE HUMAN BODY. MUCH OF THE WORK IS DEVOTED TO INTTAOCULARANGIOGENESIS, WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO: 1) THE SIGNALS THAT CONTROL THIS PROCESS, 2) THE DEVELOPMENT OF ANIMAL MODELS OF HUMAN OCULAR DISEASE, AND 3) DEVELOPMENT OF POTENTIAL THERAPIES. PATENT APPLICATIONS HAVE BEEN FILED BY RDF, ONE OF THE FOUNDATION'S SUPPORTING ENTITIES, ON SEVERAL DISCOVERIES ARISING OUT OF THIS RESEARCH. LICENSING EFFORTS BY RDF HAVE RESULTED IN A LICENSE TO A COMMERCIAL COMPANY THAT, USING PROJECT TECHNOLOGY, HAS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED A PHASE I HUMAN CLINICAL TRIAL WITH GENE THERAPY TO TREAT WET AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION. THE COMPANY ALSO HAS COMPLETED PRE-CLINICAL WORK AND NOW IS SEEKING REGULATORY APPROVAL FOR INITIATION OF HUMAN PHASE I/II CLINICAL TRIAL TO INHIBIT NEOVASCULARIZATION OF CORNEAS FOLLOWING TRANSPLANTATION.
