  • Key

Who cannot join

About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double Masked, Active Controlled Phase III Study of the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Repeated Doses of Intravitreal VEGF Trap in Subjects With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

This study is a phase 3, double-masked, randomized, study of the efficacy and safety of VEGF Trap-Eye in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration. Approximately 1200 patients will be randomized in the US and Canada.

Being tested
ranibizumab, aflibercept injection (VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321)
Medical subject headings
Macular Degeneration

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ranibizumabBiological

    Also called Lucentis

    Participants received a 0.5mg dose of ranibizumab via intravitreal (IVT) injection every 4 weeks for the first year. Thereafter a dose may be administered as frequently as every 4 weeks, but no less frequently than every 12 weeks.

  • aflibercept injection (VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321)Biological

    Also called VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321

    Participants received a 2.0mg dose of aflibercept injection every 4 weeks for the first year. Thereafter a dose may be administered as frequently as every 4 weeks, but no less frequently than every 12 weeks.

  • aflibercept injection (VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321)Biological

    Also called VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321

    Participants received a 0.5mg dose of aflibercept injection every 4 weeks for the first year. Thereafter a dose may be administered as frequently as every 4 weeks, but no less frequently than every 12 weeks.

  • aflibercept injection (VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321)Biological

    Also called VEGF Trap-Eye, BAY86-5321

    Participants received a 2.0mg dose of aflibercept injection every 8 weeks (including one additional 2.0 mg dose at Week 4) for the first year and were to receive sham injections at interim monthly visits. Thereafter a dose may be administered as frequently as every 4 weeks, but no less frequently than every 12 weeks.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Percentage of Patients Who Maintained Vision at Week 52 - Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF)

    Defined "maintenance of vision" as patients who lost fewer than 15 letters in Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter score compared to baseline.

    Measured: Baseline and at week 52

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Mean Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) as Measured by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Letter Score at Week 52 - LOCF

    Defined study baseline range of ETDRS Best Corrected Visual Acuity of: letter score of 73 to 25 (20/40 to 20/320) in the study eye; a higher score represents better functioning.

    Measured: Baseline and at week 52

  2. Percentage of Patients Who Gained at Least 15 Letters of Vision in the ETDRS Letter Score in the Study Eye at Week 52 - LOCF.

    Defined study baseline range of ETDRS Best Corrected Visual Acuity of: letter score of 73 to 25 (20/40 to 20/320) in the study eye; a higher score represents better functioning.

    Measured: Baseline and at week 52

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in National Eye Institute Visual Functioning Questionnaire (NEI VFQ-25) Total Score at Week 52 - LOCF

    The NEI VFQ-25 total score ranges from 0-100 with a score of 0 being the worst outcome and 100 being the best outcome. The NEI VFQ questionnaire is organized as a collection of subscales which are all scored from 0-100. To reach the overall composite score, each sub-scale score is averaged in order to give each sub-scale equal weight.

    Measured: Baseline and at Week 52

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) Area at Week 52 (LOCF)

    CNV area values measured in square millimeters (mm^2); lower values represent better outcomes.

    Measured: Baseline and at week 52
