Importance: Limited studies have assessed the long-term benefit/risk of gene therapy for Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON).

Objective: To determine the safety and efficacy of lenadogene nolparvovec in patients with LHON due to the MT-ND4 gene variant for up to 5 years after administration.

Design, Setting, And Participants: The RESCUE and REVERSE Long-Term Follow-up Study (RESTORE), conducted from 2018 to 2022, is the 5-year follow-up study of the 2 phase 3 clinical studies RESCUE (Efficacy Study of Lenadogene Nolparvovec for the Treatment of Vision Loss Up to 6 Months From Onset in LHON Due to the MT-ND4 Mutation) and REVERSE (Efficacy Study of Lenadogene Nolparvovec for the Treatment of Vision Loss From 7 Months to 1 Year From Onset in LHON Due to the MT-ND4 Mutation).

Article Synopsis
  • - In the DREAMM-2 study, belantamab mafodotin showed significant effectiveness and a manageable safety profile for patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), particularly those who had failed multiple previous treatments.
  • - Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) indicated that while some patients experienced ocular symptoms (like difficulties with vision, driving, and reading), these symptoms improved over time with recovery times ranging from 23.5 to 44 days.
  • - Overall health-related quality of life (HRQOL) and core symptoms of multiple myeloma, including fatigue and pain, were maintained during treatment, supporting the use of belantamab mafodotin in RRMM patients and suggesting potential for
