Brief Summary:
This Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, masked, controlled, parallel group study is designed to demonstrate that suprachoroidal (SC) CLS-TA administered with intravitreal (IVT) anti-VEGF agent in subjects with treatment naive RVO is superior to IVT anti-VEGF agent used alone.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Macular Edema Retinal Vein Occlusion Drug: suprachoroidal CLS-TA Drug: suprachoroidal sham Drug: Lucentis or Avastin Phase 3

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of Subjects Demonstrating ≥ 15 Letter Improvement From Baseline in Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) [ Time Frame: 2 months ]
    Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) refers to the measurement of the best possible vision that can be achieved following refraction or correction. BCVA was assessed following the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) protocol and was measured in the number of letters read correctly on an ETDRS eye chart. An increase from the pre-treatment state in BCVA of 15 letters or more represents a clinically meaningful improvement.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) refers to the measurement of the best possible vision that can be achieved following refraction or correction. BCVA was assessed following the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) protocol and was measured in the number of letters read correctly on an ETDRS eye chart. A positive change from baseline value represents an improvement in vision.

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in Central Subfield Thickness [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    Central subfield thickness (CST) is a diagnostic measurement used in identifying the presence of edema in the circular area 1 mm in diameter centered around the fovea. CST was measured using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). A masked reading center graded the SD-OCT digital images. A negative change from baseline value represents a reduction in macular edema.
