Summary

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability, and the effects of treatment on ocular outcomes following a single intravitreal administration of ESBA1008 compared with LUCENTIS® in patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Provide written informed consent.
  • Primary subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to AMD, including predominantly classic, minimally classic or occult lesions, in the study eye.
  • New diagnosis of wet AMD or evidence of recent disease progression within the last 3 months in study eye.
  • Evidence of subretinal fluid or retinal cystic changes with a CSFT of > 340 μm using a Spectralis SD-OCT (Heidelberg Engineering) imaging system.
  • Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of Snellen equivalent 20/200 or better in the non-study eye.
  • Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Previously administered therapy, approved or investigational, for wet AMD in the study eye.
  • Any current or history of macular or retinal disease in the stuy eye other than wet AMD.
  • Lasik or cataract surgery within the last 3 months in the study eye or expected to have cataract removal surgery during the study.
  • Uncontrolled or advanced glaucoma in the study eye.
  • Use of systemic or topical ocular corticosteroids.
  • History of a medical condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude scheduled visits, completion of the study, or safe administration of study medication.
  • Abnormal or unsuitable laboratory results at Screening visit.
  • Lactating or pregnant. Women of childbearing potential must use adequate birth control for the duration of the study.
  • Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria may apply.
