Summary
The primary objectives of the study are to determine the safety of high-dose aflibercept (hereafter referred to as HD) and to determine if HD provides greater intraocular pharmacodynamic (PD) effect and/or longer duration of action compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (hereafter referred to as IAI).
Eligibility Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria
- Men or women ≥50 years of age with active subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to nAMD
- Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter score of 78 to 24 (Snellen equivalent of 20/32 to 20/320) in the study eye
Key Exclusion Criteria
- Evidence of CNV due to any cause other than nAMD in either eye
- Evidence of diabetic macular edema (DME) or diabetic retinopathy (defined as more than 1 microaneurysm) in either eye in diabetic patients
- Prior use of IVT anti-VEGF agents (aflibercept, ranibizumab, bevacizumab, brolucizumab, pegaptanib sodium) in the study eye
- Prior IVT investigational agents in either eye (eg, anti-ang-2/anti-VEGF bispecific monoclonal antibodies, gene therapy)
- Previous use of intraocular or periocular corticosteroids within 120 days of screening or treatment with an IVT steroid implant at any time in the study eye
- History of vitreoretinal surgery (including scleral buckling) in the study eye
- Any other intraocular surgery within 12 weeks (84 days) before the screening visit
- History of corneal transplant or corneal dystrophy in study eye
