Phase II/III Randomized, Double-Masked, Trial, to Establish the Safety and Efficacy of Intravitreal Injections of EYE001 (Anti-VEGF Pegylated Aptamer) Given Every 6 Weeks for 54 Weeks, in Patients With Exudative AMD).

This will be a randomized, double-masked, controlled, dose-ranging, multi-center comparative trial, in parallel groups. Patients will be stratified by clinical center, by percentage of classic CNV vessels: [predominantly classic (>50%) vs. minimally classic (1-49%) vs. purely occult (0%)], and according to whether, or not, they have received prior PDT with Visudyne (no more than once). All patients will be re-randomized after 54 weeks of treatment to either, continue or discontinue therapy for further 48 weeks.
