Randomized, Single-Masked, Long-Term, Safety and Tolerability Study of VEGF Trap-Eye in AMD
- Conditions
- Macular Degeneration
- Interventions
- Drug: VEGF Trap Eye
- Registration Number
- NCT00527423
- Lead Sponsor
- Regeneron Pharmaceuticals
- Brief Summary
Rollover study for subjects in prior VEGF Trap-Eye Phase I and II studies. Primary objective is to assess long-term safety and tolerability of continuing intravitreal treatment in subjects with wet age-related macular degeneration.
- Detailed Description
Randomized, Single-Masked Phase II study for subjects previously enrolled in Phase I and II studies for wet age-related macular degeneration with VEGF Trap-Eye intravitreal injection as treatment.Long term (3 years) treatment is intended to measure safety and tolerability, as well as frequency of re-treatment and the effect of VEGF Trap-Eye on best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).
