Authorised Therapeutic confirmatory (Phase III) Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD)

A Study of the Efficacy, Safety, and Pharmacokinetics of A 36-Week Refill Regimen for the Port Delivery System with Ranibizumab in Patients with Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Velodrome)

EU CTIS ID: 2023-507130-24-00

What this study is testing

To evaluate the efficacy of ranibizumab 100 mg/mL delivered via the port delivery system with ranibizumab (PDS) every 36 weeks (Q36W) compared with every 24 weeks (Q24W) on the basis of change from baseline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) score averaged over Weeks 68 and 72

  • Prior Ocular Treatment: Either Eye Prior participation in a clinical trial involving any therapies for nAMD, within 9 months from the time of nAMD diagnosis
  • CNV Lesion Characteristics: Study Eye Subretinal hemorrhage that involves the center of the fovea, if the hemorrhage is greater than 0.5 disc area in size at screening
  • Concurrent Systemic Conditions: Uncontrolled blood pressure
  • Concurrent Systemic Conditions: Use of any systemic anti-VEGF agents
  • Concurrent Systemic Conditions: Use of antimitotic or antimetabolite therapy within 30 days or 5 elimination half-lives of the enrollment visit
