Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Zimura and Avastin

Participants receive three monthly Avastin treatments (Day 1, Month 1, and Month 2) followed by Zimura administered on the same day. All participants will receive treatment every 3 months for a total of 18 months. If there is a loss of visual acuity during the intervening visits, participants may be retreated with Avastin and Zimura.

Drug: Zimura
Zimura 2 mg, administered by intravitreal injection
Other Names:
  • Avacincaptad Pegol
  • ARC1905
  • Drug: Avastin
    Avastin 1.25 mg, administered by intravitreal injection
    Other Names:
  • Bevacizumab
  • Experimental: Zimura and Lucentis

    Participants receive three monthly Lucentis treatments (Day 1, Month 1, and Month 2) followed by Zimura administered on the same day. All participants will receive treatment every 3 months for a total of 18 months. If there is a loss of visual acuity during the intervening visits, participants may be retreated with Lucentis and Zimura.

  • Experimental: Zimura and Eylea

    Participants receive three monthly Eylea treatments (Day 1, Month 1, and Month 2) followed by Zimura administered on the same day. All participants will receive treatment every 3 months for a total of 18 months. If there is a loss of visual acuity during the intervening visits, participants may be retreated with Eylea and Zimura.

    6. Percentage of participants with >10 letter loss [Month 12]

      Vision testing is performed using retroilluminated modified Ferris-Bailey ETDRS charts at 4 meters.

    7. Percentage of participants with >10 letter loss [Month 18]

      Vision testing is performed using retroilluminated modified Ferris-Bailey ETDRS charts at 4 meters.
