Brief Summary:
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Zimura intravitreal administration in patients with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Geographic Atrophy Macular Degeneration Drug: Zimura Drug: Sham Phase 3

Detailed Description:

Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the following monthly treatment groups:

  • Zimura 2 mg
  • Sham

At month 12, the patients in the Zimura 2mg treatment group will be re-randomized to receive the study drug either on a monthly basis or on an every other month basis

The patients initially randomized to Sham treatment will continue with monthly Sham injections through Month 23

All patients will have a final follow up visit at Month 24
