Summary

The purpose of this trial is to assess the ocular and systemic safety and tolerability of a single intravitreal injection of VEGF Trap in patients with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to AMD.

Conditions

  • Macular Degeneration

Interventions

DRUG

VEGF Trap

Part A: Six successive cohorts of 3-6 patients each with neovascular AMD will receive a single intravitreal (ITV) injection of 0.05, 0.15, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, or 4.0 mg of VEGF Trap into the study eye. Part B: Up to 30 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive a single of 2.0 mg/eye VEGF Trap followed by 1 sham injection six weeks later, or an initial dose of 0.3 mg pegaptanib sodium into the study eye, followed by a second dose six weeks later. Part C: Approximately 30 subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive up to two ITV injections of either 0.15 or 4.0 mg/eye VEGF Trap. After completion of Visit 8 (Day 57), patients from all parts of the study, may be eligible to continue in Open-label Extension and will receive 4.0 mg of VEGF Trap.
