Study of AR-14034 in Participants With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (nAMD)

A Phase 1/2 Two-Stage Dose Escalation and Randomized Parallel-Group Study to Evaluate the Safety, Preliminary Treatment Effects, and Durability of AR-14034 Sustained Release Implant Compared to Intravitreal Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Treatment in Participants With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration


Sponsor

Alcon Research

Enrollment

140 participants

Start Date

Dec 6, 2023

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and durability of single- and repeat administration of AR-14034 Sustained Release (SR) in subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).


Eligibility

Min Age: 50 Years

Inclusion Criteria9

  • Presence of an active choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesion secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD);
  • Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) between 80 and 35 letters (20/25 to 20/200 Snellen equivalent) in the study eye;
  • BCVA greater than 20 letters (approximately 20/400 Snellen equivalent) in the non-study eye;
  • Media clarity and pupillary dilation in the study eye sufficient for all planned study procedures;
  • Capable of giving signed informed consent, which includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the informed consent form (ICF) and in this protocol;
  • \[Stage 1\]:
  • Greater than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 6 prior treatments of an ocular anti-VEGF medication within the 8 months prior to Screening in the study eye, with demonstrated anatomic response, as assessed by the Investigator.
  • \[Stage 2\]:
  • Treatment-naïve, or diagnosis of exudative neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in the study eye.

Exclusion Criteria7

  • History or current ocular disease in the study eye other than nAMD, that, might require medical or surgical intervention during the study;
  • Structural damage to the macula that is likely to preclude improvement in visual acuity in the study eye after resolution of the nAMD;
  • Any active intraocular or periocular infection or active intraocular inflammation;
  • Treatment with ocular anti-VEGF product in the study eye within 28 days before Week 1 \[Stage 1\] or within 56 days before Screening \[Stage 2\].
  • Uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye;
  • Uncontrolled blood pressure;
  • Females of child-bearing potential who are pregnant, intending to become pregnant, nursing, or who are not willing to use an acceptable form of contraception for the duration of the study;
