Wet Age-related Macular Degeneration (wAMD)

The purpose of this study is to compare two treatment frequencies using EYLEA® HD (aflibercept 8mg) in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) that are currently treated with EYLEA® (aflibercept 2mg). EYLEA® HD is approved by Health Canada has been tested in large clinical trials involving thousands of patients around the world and has been shown effective in the treatment of wAMD. The treatment regimen used in these trials involved 3 initial monthly injections of EYLEA® HD followed by an extension of the treatment interval on the 4th visit. This was necessary since all patients in this study did not previously have treatment injections for wAMD. Currently there is not enough information on the best treatment regimen to use for patients that are switched to EYLEA® HD from EYLEA®. Health Canada currently recommends that EYLEA® HD is administered every month for the first 3 doses, followed by a treatment every 8 to 16 weeks. A total of 180 patients \>18 years of age will participate in this study, which will be conducted at the Clinique de Retine de l'Est in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of intravitreal injection of EXG202 in subjects with neovascular age-related Macular Degeneration (nAMD).

This Phase II study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AL-001 ophthalmic injection in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration. Eligible patients, who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria and have shown an anatomic response to an anti-VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) injection, will be randomized in Cohorts 1 and 2 to receive AL-001 administered via suprachoroidal space injection, Cohort 3 to receive Aflibercept.

This study is designed to evaluate long-term safety and efficacy of AL-001 ophthalmic injection following suprachoroidal space(SCS) administration in subjects with wAMD. Eligible patients, are those who were previously enrolled in a clinical study in which they received a single dose of AL-001 administered via suprachoroidal space injection.
