The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Zimura intravitreal administration in patients with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Official Title

A Phase 3 Multicenter, Randomized, Double Masked, Sham- Controlled Clinical Trial to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Intravitreal Administration of Zimura (Complement C5 Inhibitor) in Patients With Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Details

Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the following monthly treatment groups:

  • Zimura 2 mg

At month 12, the patients in the Zimura 2mg treatment group will be re-randomized to receive the study drug either on a monthly basis or on an every other month basis

The patients initially randomized to Sham treatment will continue with monthly Sham injections through Month 23

All patients will have a final follow up visit at Month 24
