Study Overview
Brief Summary
This is a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of multiple intravitreal injection TK001 in patients with AMD. It consists of core study (12 weeks) and extension study (40 weeks).
Detailed Description
This is a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of multiple intravitreal injection TK001 in patients with AMD. It consists of core study (12 weeks) and extension study (40 weeks). In the core study, patients will receive their assigned dose in a 50-μL solution administered as an intravitreal injection every 4 weeks. In the extension study, they will be evaluated every 4 weeks and administrated PRN (pro re nata) with their assigned dose. The safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of TK001 will be evaluated in the core study, and will also be assessed in the extension study except pharmacokinetics.

Intervention: TK001 (Biological)
1.5mg
In the core study, patients will receive 1.5mg TK001 in a 50-μL solution administered as an intravitreal injection every 4 weeks. In the extension study, they will be evaluated every 4 weeks and administrated PRN (pro re nata) with their assigned dose.
