简要总结

This study will investigate the safety and efficacy of treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with a combination of ranibizumab (Lucentis) and verteporfin PDT (Visudyne), as compared with ranibizumab monotherapy.

入选标准

  • Ability to give informed consent
  • Patients with visual acuity of 20/40-20/320 in the study eye
  • Subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) must be at least 50% of the total lesion size.
  • Total area of lesion components other that CNV must be less than 50% of the total lesion size.
  • The lesion must be < 5400microns in greatest linear dimension (GLD).
  • Lesion size < 10 DA
  • Occult with no classic CNV lesions must have presumed recent disease progression:
  • Blood associated with the lesion at baseline
  • Loss of visual acuity in the previous 3 months: a: > 5 letter loss (ETDRS equivalent) or b: 2 or more lines using a snellen or equivalent chart
  • > 10% increase in GLD as assessed by fluorescein angiography in the previous 3 months

排除标准

  • Presence of angioid streaks, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome, pathologic myopia (-8 or more with evidence of posterior segment abnormalities consistent with pathologic myopia), or CNV secondary to causes other than AMD
  • Geographic atrophy in the study eye
  • Tear (rip) of the retinal pigment epithelium
  • Presence of fibrosis, hemorrhage, pigment epithelial detachments, or other hypofluorescent lesions obscuring greater than 50% of the CNV lesion
  • Intraocular surgery within 6 weeks of enrollment
  • Active or history of ocular inflammation or infection in the study eye within the last 30 days
  • Subretinal hemorrhage > 50% of the total lesion
  • History of submacular surgery, or transpupillary thermotherapy in the study eye
  • Patients with intraocular pressure greater than 30 mm/Hg on 2 pressure-lowering medications
  • Patients with severe disciform scarring
  • History of intraocular surgery in the study eye including pars plana vitrectomy, except for uncomplicated cataract surgery within 60 days prior to screening
  • History of YAG laser posterior capsulotomy in the study eye within 30 days prior to screening
  • Inability to make study visits
  • Advanced glaucoma, uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye (defined as intraocular pressure, IOP ≥ 25 mmHg) despite treatment with two or more topical pharmacological anti-glaucomatous medication)
  • Allergies to porphyrins or a known hypersensitivity to any component of Visudyne®
  • Patients with porphyria
  • Pregnancy or lactation
