Show Outcome Measure 4

5. Secondary:

Number of Subjects With Severe Visual Loss [ 54 weeks or at early termination ]

Hide Outcome Measure 5

Measure Type	Secondary
Measure Title	Number of Subjects With Severe Visual Loss
Measure Description	Subjects with severe visual loss: loss from baseline of >= 30 letters of visual acuity. Best-corrected visual acuity assessed using retroilluminated modified Ferris-Bailey ETDRS charts. When possible to measure visual acuity @ 2.0 m (≥20 letters), visual acuity score for that eye recorded as number of letters correct plus 15; otherwise, score was number of letters read correctly @ 1.0 m plus number, if any, read @ 2.0 m. If no letter was read correctly either at 2.0 or 1.0 m, then visual acuity score was recorded as 0.
Time Frame	54 weeks or at early termination
Safety Issue	No

Population Description

Certain Agreements:

Principal Investigators are NOT employed by the organization sponsoring the study.

There IS an agreement between Principal Investigators and the Sponsor (or its agents) that restricts the PI's rights to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed.

The agreement is:

	The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is less than or equal to 60 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.
	The only disclosure restriction on the PI is that the sponsor can review results communications prior to public release and can embargo communications regarding trial results for a period that is more than 60 days but less than or equal to 180 days. The sponsor cannot require changes to the communication and cannot extend the embargo.
	Other disclosure agreement that restricts the right of the PI to discuss or publish trial results after the trial is completed. Restriction Description: Pfizer has the right to review disclosures, requesting a delay of < 60 days. Investigator will postpone single center publications until after disclosure of pooled data (all sites), < 12 months from study completion/termination at all participating sites. Investigator may not disclose previously undisclosed confidential information other than study results.

Limitations and Caveats

Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
