Clinical trials

Researchers are looking for new ways to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD). Available standard (usual) treatments for NVAMD, such as aflibercept, may not work for every person. Researchers want to learn if a trial medicine called tiespectus (also called MK-8748 or EYE201) can treat NVAMD. The goal of this trial is to learn if tiespectus works as well as aflibercept to treat NVAMD.

EYE-RES-104 is a randomized, dose-masked study of intravitreal EYE103 in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD) or macular edema following branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). The study will consist of 4 patient cohorts, with participants in each cohort randomized (1:1) to either a low dose of EYE103 via IVT or a high dose of EYE103 via IVT. 40 participants will be enrolled in each cohort. Enrollment timing for each cohort will be sequenced into specific arms of the study at the Sponsor's discretion. All participants in the study will receive a total of 3 injections of EYE103 into the study eye, spaced at 4 weeks apart. All participants will return at designated time points following each injection for safety and efficacy assessments. The Week 12 Visit will serve as the end of study visit for all participants.
