About this study
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of GT005 in participants with Geographic Atrophy (GA) secondary to AMD who have been treated in an antecedent study.
Read the detailed description
This is a prospective, multi-centre, long-term, follow-up study for participants who have previously received GT005 in one of the antecedent clinical studies which were prematurely terminated GT005-01 (FOCUS), GT005-02 (EXPLORE) or GT005-03 (HORIZON). Participants from GT005-01 (FOCUS) study with only 1 last study visit to be conducted (Week 240) will remain in the study to complete their last visit. No investigational product will be administered within this study, and participants will be invited to enter ORACLE upon their completion or termination of the antecedent interventional study (whichever is soonest). This study will consist of up to three study visits prior to Week 96, and up to five study visits thereafter, for an overall period of 5-years post-GT005 administration.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
GT005Genetic
GT005 is a gene therapy for GA and is a recombinant adeno-associated viral serotype 2 (AAV2) vector encoding for human complement factor I. GT005 was administered to all participants in an antecedent study prior to enrollment in ORACLE and GT005 is not administered in the ORACLE study.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Incidence and severity of ocular and systemic adverse events (AEs)
An AE is the development of an undesirable medical condition or the deterioration of a preexisting medical condition following or during exposure to a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered causally related to the IMP.
Measured: up to Week 260

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing GT005 in people with Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD), run by Gyroscope Therapeutics Limited at 32 sites in 6 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 32 sites in United States, Spain, France, Germany, United Kingdom and 1 more country. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Incidence and severity of ocular and systemic adverse events (AEs) (time frame: up to Week 260). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Sep 2026.
