Safety Study of Zimura™in Combination With Anti-VEGF Therapy in Patients With Neovascular AMD
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective is to assess the safety of intravitreal (IVT) Zimura® administered in combination with anti-VEGF Therapy (AVASTIN®, EYLEA®, OR LUCENTIS®) in anti-VEGF treatment experienced subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

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. |

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. |

Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Treatment experienced subjects defined as subjects with 1 prior dose of same intravitreal anti-VEGF therapy given within the past 8 weeks for neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD) in the study eye. There must be < 0 letters of improvement in Snellen (not ETDRS Snellen equivalent) visual acuity since the start of anti-VEGF treatment.
-

-
Presence of other causes of choroidal neovascularization, including pathologic myopia, ocular histoplasmosis syndrome, angioid streaks, choroidal rupture, and multifocal choroiditis.
-
Non-pharmacologic treatment (intraocular surgery or thermal laser) within three months of trial entry.
-
Prior thermal laser in the macular region, regardless of indication.
-
Ocular or periocular infection in the past twelve weeks.
-
History of any of the following conditions or procedures in the study eye: rhegmatogenous retinal detachment, pars plana vitrectomy, filtering surgery, glaucoma drainage device, or corneal transplant.
