METHODS: PubMed, Embase, and select congress abstracts were evaluated through June 2022. Eligible studies included results specific to RPGR -associated XLRP or populations with ≥80% of patients with retinitis pigmentosa carrying disease-causing RPGR variants. End points of interest included visual acuity, visual field, ellipsoid zone width, progression to blindness, and patient-reported outcomes.
RESULTS: Fourteen studies met ≥1 end point of interest. Progressive declines in visual acuity, visual field, and ellipsoid zone width were reported across studies. Nearly all publications reported annual declines in visual acuity (3.5%-8.2%). Annual visual field declines ranged from 4.2% to 13.3%. Changes in retinal structure were also observed (ellipsoid zone width changes: -177 to -830 µ m/year). Most studies measured blindness using visual acuity; visual field-based definitions resulted in blindness by age ∼25 years. Patient-reported outcome data were limited.
CONCLUSIONS: Published evidence shows that patients with RPGR -associated XLRP experience progressive decline in visual acuity, visual field, and ellipsoid zone width, eventually resulting in blindness. Additional longitudinal data with standardized end points and expanded collection of patient-reported outcomes are needed to assess visual decline in RPGR -associated XLRP.
方法:PubMed,EMBASE,和部分国会摘要在2022年6月之前进行了评估。符合条件的研究包括RPGR-XLRP或≥80%RP患者携带致病RPGR变异的人群的特异性结果。感兴趣的终点包括视敏度(VA),视野(VF),椭球区宽度(EZW),进展为失明,和患者报告的结果(PRO)。
结果:14项研究达到了≥1个感兴趣的终点。VA的逐步下降,VF,和EZW在所有研究中都有报道。几乎所有出版物都报告了VA的年度下降(3.5%-8.2%)。VF年度下降范围为4.2%至13.3%。还观察到视网膜结构的变化(EZW变化:-177至-830μm/y)。大多数研究使用VA测量失明;基于VF的定义导致年龄约25岁的失明。PRO数据有限。
结论:已发表的证据表明RPGR-XLRP患者的VA逐渐下降,VF,还有EZW,最终导致失明。需要具有标准化终点和扩大的PRO收集的其他纵向数据来评估RPGR-XLRP的视觉下降。
