Study to Evaluate an 8 mg Aflibercept (EYLEA®) Prefilled Syringe (PFS)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals developed a single-dose glass pre-filled syringe (PFS) to deliver 8 mg aflibercept. The PFS is a convenient device that contains the study medication that will be injected in your study eye. A PFS offers a sterile, single dose of study drug within the syringe; this eliminates the need for the retina specialist to prepare the injection syringe from a separate vial.
This Phase IIIb study is focused on patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) and neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
The main aim of the study is to evaluate if the 8 mg aflibercept PFS allows for successful preparation and administration of 8 mg aflibercept by retina specialists. The study will also assess the safety of 8 mg aflibercept PFS use. Regeneron will use the information from the study to better understand if the PFS can be used safely and effectively by retina specialists to administer 8 mg aflibercept.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Number of 8 mg aflibercept injections successfully administered utilizing the PFS [At Day 1]
Participants received a single dose of study drug, administered in the selected study eye with the PFS by a retina specialist. Physician assessed successful aflibercept preparation and administration with the PFS.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of ocular adverse events (AEs) in the study eye [Through Day 29]
- Incidence of ocular severe adverse events (SAEs) in the study eye [Through Day 29]
