The same post notes that CMO Dr. Jayashree Sahni will present on “Design and Early Clinical Insights from LUCE: Dual‑Vector MYO7A Gene Therapy in Usher Syndrome Type 1B,” focusing on early clinical learnings and practical aspects of bringing dual‑vector gene therapy into the clinic. This visibility at a specialized retinal and gene therapy forum suggests that AAVantgarde is positioning its LUCE program and broader retinal pipeline as emerging clinical-stage assets, which may be relevant for assessing future partnering, funding prospects, and the company’s competitive standing in inherited retinal disease therapeutics.
