Brief Summary

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive disease leading to severe and irreversible vision loss of which the neovascular AMD (nAMD) accounted for 90% blindness in AMD. nAMD is primarily...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Males or females ≥ 50 and ≤ 80 years at the time of signing the ICF
  • Diagnosed of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to AMD in the study eye;
  • Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ranged from 73 to 23 early treatment diabetic retinopathy study (ETDRS)letter score (corresponding to 20/32 to 20/320 of Snellen visual acuity) in the study eye;
  • BCVA in the non-study eye had an ETDRS letter score of 19(equivalent to Snellen visual acuity20/400) and above;
  • Able to perform visual acuity and retinal function tests and able and willing to comply with study procedures for this clinical trial;
  • RESPONSIVE SUBJECTS:
  • History of need for and responsive to anti-VEGF therapy in the study eye
  • NON-RESPONSIVE SUBJECTS:
  • History of receiving anti-VEGF therapy but is resistant to treatment, which is defined as: a. complete or near-complete remission of subretinal fluid after the initial 3 doses of anti-VEGF agents and thenno improvement (less than 50um reduction) or deterioration of CRT by OCT

Exclusion

  • Subretinal hemorrhage, scarring, or fibrosis of greater than 50% of the total lesion in the study eye;
  • Any condition in the Investigator's opinion that could limit visual improvement in the study eye;
  • Other ocular diseases that may affect central vision in the study eye (e.g., retinal vein occlusion, retinal detachment, macular hole, optic nerve disease, etc.);
  • Presence of CNV not due to nAMD in the study eye,
  • Uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye;
  • Active intraocular inflammation or a history of uveitis in either eye;
  • History or presence of corneal dystrophy in the study eye;
  • Subjects with immunodeficiency diseases prone to opportunistic infections;
  • History of other intraocular surgery in the study eye within 3 months prior to baseline that in the Investigator's opinion could impact healing or study outcome interpretation;
  • Prior gene therapy or oligonucleotide therapy;
  • History of acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction, coronary revascularization, cerebrovascular accident, or transient ischemic attack within 6 months prior to the Screening Visit;
  • Other conditions judged by the investigator as inappropriate for the study.
