An Open-Label Study of the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Intravitreal Administration of VEGF Trap-Eye (Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection) in Patients With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

This is a phase 4, open-label, single arm, multicenter, clinical study in patients with
neovascular AMD designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Intravitreal Aflibercept
Injection (IAI) administered over 2 years , and to provide clinical information from the
first year in the trial evaluating the adverse effects, if any, on the corneal endothelium
following administration of IAI.


Inclusion criteria include but are not limited to:

1. Men or women great than or equal to 50 years of age with unilateral neovascular AMD

2. BCVA ETDRS letter score of 73 to 24 (20/40 to 20/320) in the study eye

3. Active primary subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesions secondary to AMD,
including juxtafoveal lesions that affect the fovea as evidenced by FA in the study
eye

4. The CNV area must be at least 50% of total lesion size

5. Willing and able to comply with clinic visits and study-related procedures

6. Provide signed informed consent

7. Provide signed Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)
authorization

Exclusion criteria include but are not limited to:

1. Neovascular AMD in the fellow eye

2. Corneal endothelial measures as judged by an independent reading center

3. Any prior use of intraocular anti-VEGF treatment for neovascular AMD in either eye

4. Structural damage to the center of the macula in the study eye that is likely to
preclude improvement in BCVA following the resolution of macular edema

5. History of cataract surgery, or other intraocular surgery in either eye, within 1 year
of screening

6. History of cataract surgery, or other intraocular surgery in either eye, within 1 year
of screening, or yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) Capsulotomy within 3 months of
screening

7. Contact lens wear in either eye within 6 months of screening

8. History of angle closure glaucoma in either eye

9. Intraocular laser therapy including selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), YAG,
prophylactic peripheral iridotomy (PI) in either eye within 1 year of screening, or
YAG Capsulotomy within 3 months of screening

10. History of cataract surgery requiring an anterior chamber intraocular lens implant at
any time in either eye

11. Any prior ocular trauma (blunt or penetrating) in either eye

12. Embedded corneal foreign body in either eye

13. Evidence of infectious blepharitis, keratitis, scleritis, or conjunctivitis in either
eye

14. Ocular media of insufficient quality to obtain fundus and OCT images in the study eye

15. Any prior ocular inflammation/infection in either eye within 3 months of the screening
visit

16. Any prior use of amantadine

17. Significant pre-retinal fibrosis involving the macula in the study eye (where, in the
opinion of the investigator, the pre-retinal fibrosis is causing distortion or
traction on the central macular region which may be limiting vision, or inducing
retinal edema/thickening, beyond that due to underlying CNV)

18. Intraocular pressure (IOP) greater than or equal to 30 mm Hg in the study eye at
screening

19. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM) (HbA1c ≥8)

20. Current treatment with systemic anti-VEGF therapeutics at screening

21. Known serious allergy to the fluorescein sodium for injection in angiography

22. Participation in an investigational study within 30 days prior to the screening visit
that involved treatment with any drug (excluding vitamins and minerals) or device.

23. Positive serum hCG pregnancy test at the screening visit
