A Multicenter, Prospective Epidemiologic Study of the Progression of Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration

This study seeks to better characterize relationships between visual function and the
progression (worsening) of geographic atrophy (GA) due to age-related macular degeneration
(AMD). The study also will generate new information on the relationship between genetics and
GA progression. This is a global, prospective, multicenter, epidemiologic study enrolling 200
participants with GA secondary to AMD. The study visits are scheduled to occur every 6
months. The anticipated duration of the study is up to 60 months.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Well-demarcated area of GA secondary to AMD

- Women of childbearing potential and men must agree to use adequate contraception for
at least 30 days after fluorescein dye administration

- The study is recruiting participants in two different cohorts:

Cohort 1: Participants with unilateral GA OR Cohort 2: Participants with GA in one eye and
CNV (active or treated) with or without GA, in the contralateral eye

Exclusion Criteria:

- Previous participation in any studies of investigational drugs for GA / dry AMD
(exception for studies of vitamins and minerals)

- GA in either eye due to causes other than AMD

- History of vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, or any surgical intervention for
AMD

- Previous laser photocoagulation for CNV, diabetic macular edema, retinal vein
occlusion, and/or proliferative diabetic retinopathy

- Any ocular/systemic medical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, could
contribute to participant's inability to participate in the study or interfere with
study assessments.

- Requirement for continuous use of therapy indicated in Prohibited Therapy
