Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Evaluate the change in BCVA of the study eye from TAB014 and ranibizumab treatment groups. [At week 52]
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) letter score as measured by the ETDRS chart
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Evaluate the change in BCVA of the study eye [At week 12, 24 and 36]
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) letter score as measured by the ETDRS chart
- Evaluate the proportion of subjects with an increase in BCVA of >5, >10, and >15 in the study eye [At week 12, 24 and 52]
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) letter score as measured by the ETDRS chart
- Evaluate the proportion of subjects with a BCVA loss of <5, <10, < 15 letters in the study eye [At week 12, 24 and 52]
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) letter score as measured by the ETDRS chart
- Change in central subfield thickness（CST) in the study eye [At week 12, 24, 36 and 52]
CST measured by SD-OCT as assessed by independent central reading center
- Change in Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) area of study eye [At week 12, 24 and 52]
CNV as assessed by independent central reading center
Other Outcome Measures
- Safety Evaluation [Baseline and every month up to week 52]
Ocular and non-ocular adverse events, serious adverse events (SAEs), adverse events of special interest (AESI), etc. will be graded according to the Ophthalmic Adverse Event Grading Scale and NIA Guidelines for Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events (September 2018 Edition).
- Immunogenicity Evaluation [At week 12, 24 and 52]
Detection of anti-drug antibody and/or neutralizing antibodies will be examined in approximately 80 patients with monocular nAMD and no prior anti-VEGF therapy in the non-study eye for detection of immunogenicity evaluation.
