---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Subject 1 | 5.7 years | F | OD | Unsuccessful | — | 28 days | Prednisolone only | |
OS | 5 organoids implanted subretinally | Organoids remained separate. Some disruption of overlying retinal lamination. | Poor survival, medium-size graft, massive number of Iba1[+] cells | |||||
Subject 2 | 5.7 years | F | OD | 5 organoids implanted subretinally | Organoids present in subretinal space. Lamination of overlying retina preserved | 66 days | Prednisolone only | Poor survival, large graft, patches of surviving HNu[+] cells remaining, massive number of Iba1[+] cells |
OS | 5 organoids implanted subretinally | Organoids present in subretinal space. Lamination of overlying retina preserved | Poor survival, very small patch of HNu[+] cells remaining | |||||
Subject 3 | 7.4 years | F | OD | Unsuccessful | — | 36 days | Cyclosporine A and prednisolone | |
