Pharmacokinetics of CLG561 in Patients With Advanced Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Age-related Macular Degeneration
• Interventions: Drug: CLG561

• Registration Number: NCT01835015
• Lead Sponsor: Alcon Research

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and serum pharmacokinetics of CLG561 in subjects with advanced age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Detailed Description

Subjects were divided into 5 cohorts, with the subjects in each cohort being administered a single IVT dose of CLG561 in 1 of 5 concentration levels A-E, where A=lowest and E=highest. All subjects received active CLG561. Progress from one cohort to the next was time-lagged to allow for safety review. Dosing was also time-lagged within each cohort. Only one eye (designated as the study eye) was dosed per subject. Post-dose safety assessments and ocular examination occurred immediately after the IVT injection and continued throughout the outpatient visits at pre-determined timepoints. Collection of post-injection blood samples began after the IVT injection at pre-determined timepoints. Subjects were followed for up to 84 days.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Number of Subjects With a Change From Normal to Abnormal in Ocular Signs at Any Post-Therapy Visit as Compared to Baseline Assessment	Baseline, Day 2, Day 4, Day 8, Day 15, Day 29, Day 57, Day 85	A slit-lamp biomicroscopy examination was performed to evaluate the anterior segment of the eye. Subjects having a normal baseline evaluation were examined at subsequent visits, and any change from normal to abnormal was recorded. Criteria for reclassifying from normal to abnormal were left to the opinion of the investigators. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. None of the abnormalities were deemed related to the study medication.
Mean Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) by Visit - Study Eye	Baseline, Day 2, Day 4, Day 15, Day 29, Day 57, Day 85	BCVA (with spectacles or other visual corrective devices) using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) testing was reported in letters read correctly. Improvement of BCVA was defined as an increase (gain) in letters read from the baseline assessment. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Mean Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP) by Visit - Study Eye	Baseline, Day 1, Day 2, Day 4, Day 15, Day 29, Day 57, Day 85	IOP was measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry or tonopen, at the discretion of the Investigator, and reported in mmHg (millimeters of mercury). A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Number of Subjects With Change From Normal to Abnormal in Fundus Examination at Any Post-Therapy Visit as Compared to Baseline Assessment	Baseline, Day 2, Day 4, Day 8, Day 15, Day 29, Day 57, Day 85	A dilated fundus examination was performed to evaluate the health of the retina, macula, choroid, and optic nerve. Subjects having a normal baseline evaluation were examined at subsequent visits, and any change from normal to abnormal was recorded. Criteria for reclassifying from normal to abnormal were left to the opinion of the investigators. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. None of the abnormalities were deemed related to the study medication.
