Information provided by:	Pfizer
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:	NCT00324116

Purpose

To evaluate the efficacy, based on the best-corrected visual acuity (using the ETDRS chart), of a 0.3 mg/eye pegaptanib sodium intravitreous injection given every 6 weeks for 54 weeks in patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration and evidence of recent onset, subfoveal and/or juxtafoveal choroidal neovascularization.

Study Type:	Interventional
Study Design:	Treatment, Non-Randomized, Open Label, Single Group Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title:	A Prospective, Open-Label Multi Center Trial Evaluating The Safety And Efficacy Of 0.3 Mg/Eye Pegaptanib Sodium (Macugen) Intravitreous Injection Given Every 6 Weeks For 54 Weeks In Patients With Small Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Lesions

Further study details as provided by Pfizer:

Primary Outcome Measures:

Proportion of responders at 54 weeks, defined as patients having lost from baseline less than (<) 15 letters of the best-corrected visual acuity expressed as an ETDRS score ; this includes patients with visual acuity gain from baseline. [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Changes from baseline in patient reported vision-related functioning and quality of life as measured using the NEI-VFQ 25 at 54 weeks. [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Proportion of patients with severe visual loss at 54 weeks (loss from baseline of more than 30 letters of visual acuity) [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Proportion of patients maintaining vision at 54 weeks (gain from baseline of more than 0 letters of visual acuity) [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Proportion of patients gaining vision at 54 weeks (gain from baseline of more than 15 letters of visual acuity) [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Mean change from baseline in visual acuity at 6, 12 and 54 weeks [ Time Frame: after 6, 12 and 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Proportion of patients progressing to a visual acuity of < ou = 20/200 at 54 weeks of those who had a visual acuity of > 20/200 at baseline [ Time Frame: after 54 weeks of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
