Name Time Method Main Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of IVT (intravitreal) injections of faricimab on change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ;Secondary Objective: • To evaluate the efficacy of faricimab on additional BCVA outcomes<br>• To evaluate the frequency of study drug administration<br>• To evaluate the efficacy of faricimab on anatomical outcome measures using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA)<br>• To evaluate the ocular and non-ocular safety and tolerability of faricimab<br>• To characterize the systemic pharmacokinetics of faricimab<br>• To evaluate the immune response to faricimab<br>• To evaluate potential effects of anti-drug antibody (ADA)s;Primary end point(s): 1. Change in BCVA from baseline to average at Weeks 40, 44 and 48<br><br><br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1. Baseline (Day 1), Weeks 40, 44, and 48
