---|---|---|
Age-Related Macular Degeneration | Drug: E10030 Drug: ranibizumab Drug: E10030 sham intravitreal injection | Phase 3 |
Subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the following dose groups:
- Fovista® 1.5 mg/eye + Lucentis® 0.5 mg/eye
- Fovista® sham + Lucentis® 0.5 mg/eye
Subjects will be treated for a total of 24 months with active Fovista® or sham in combination with Lucentis® with the primary endpoint at 12 months.
Primary Efficacy Endpoint:
The primary efficacy endpoint is the mean change in visual acuity (ETDRS letters) from baseline at the month 12 visit.
Safety Endpoints:
Safety endpoints include adverse events, vital signs, ophthalmic variables [ophthalmic examination, intraocular pressure (IOP), fluorescein angiogram (FA), optical coherence tomography (OCT)], ECG, and laboratory variables.
Approximately 622 subjects will be randomized into one of the two treatment cohorts (311 patients per dose group).

- Mean Change in Visual Acuity From Baseline to 12 Months [ Time Frame: 12 Months ]The primary efficacy endpoint is the mean change in visual acuity (ETDRS letters) from baseline to the month 12 visit. Higher ETDRS letters represents higher vision and a higher change in ETDRS letters represents better functioning.
