Overview

Brief Summary

This is a Phase III, randomized, open-label, active-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of subretinal injection of LX102 in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration. The study will evaluate a single subretinal injection of LX102 compared to an active comparator. The primary endpoint of this study is the mean change from D0 in BCVA based on an average at weeks 40 and 48.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mean change from D0 in BCVA based on an average at weeks 40 and 48.

Time Frame: Weeks 40 and 48

  • Proportion of participants without SRF/IRF on OCT at week 48(Week 48)
  • Proportion of participants who were supplemental anti-VEGF injection-free(Through 48 weeks)
  • Proportion of participants who received 1 or 2 aflibercept injections(Through 48 weeks)
  • Supplemental anti-VEGF injection annualized rate after LX102 administration through Week 48(Through 48 weeks)
  • Incidence of ocular and nonocular AEs and SAEs(48 weeks)
  • Immunogenicity characteristics of LX102(48 weeks)
