Phase IV Study of the Port Delivery System with Ranibizumab for Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration in Adults 50 and Older

What this Trial Is About

The trial investigates the corneal endothelial cells in adults aged 50 and older with neovascular age-related macular degeneration nAMD who are treated with the Port Delivery System PDS implant delivering ranibizumab. This Phase IV, open-label study aims to monitor changes in corneal endothelial cell density over time, comparing the treated eye with the fellow eye to evaluate the effects of this device-based treatment approach. Participants will have a PDS implant surgically inserted in the study eye, initially filled with ranibizumab before implantation. Following this, the implant will be refilled every 24 weeks. Supplemental intravitreal ranibizumab injections may be given if the participant stops study treatment, based on investigator discretion. The study monitors participants for at least 48 weeks, focusing on corneal cell changes and ocular safety events. During the study, participants undergo assessments including specular microscopy to measure corneal endothelial cell density and morphology at baseline and at weeks 24 and 48. Researchers will track ocular adverse events, device-related effects, and serious safety concerns throughout the approximately one-year follow-up. The study collects visual acuity data, imaging results, and historical treatment records to support evaluation. Participants remain under close observation to assess treatment impact and safety.
