[New possibilities in the treatment of Stargardt disease].

Stargardt disease is a hereditary retinal dystrophy associated with mutations in the ABCA4 gene. Currently, no etiopathogenetic drugs nor treatment methods for Stargardt disease have completely passed clinical trials. The review summarizes experimental and clinical studies of drugs aimed at reducing the accumulation of vitamin A dimers, lipofuscin, complement inhibition and RPE regeneration by stem cell transplantation, as well as gene therapy studies with intravitreal vector injection of the ABCA4 functional gene.
