Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (Safety and Tolerability) [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
    Safety and Tolerability will be assessed using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events and CTC v4.0 (if available, otherwise protocol defined grading were used)

  2. Phase 2a: Response Rate as Defined by Proportion of Participants Receiving Combination of OPT-302 and Aflibercept Achieving at Least a 5-letter Gain in BCVA Compared to Baseline at Week 12 According to ETDRS Criteria [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
    BCVA will be measured according to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Score (ETDRS) criteria


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Mean Change in BCVA [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
    Mean change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA). BCVA will be measured according to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Score (ETDRS) criteria

  2. Mean Change in CST [ Time Frame: Baseline to Week 12 ]
    Mean change in central subfield thickness (CST) on spectral domain coherence tomography (SD-OCT)
