Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Faricimab in Participants With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (TENAYA) (NCT NCT03823287)

NCT ID: NCT03823287

Last Updated: 2025-07-23

Results Overview

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The Mixed Model of Repeated Measures (MMRM) analysis adjusted for treatment arm, visit, visit-by-treatment arm interaction, baseline BCVA (continuous), baseline BCVA (≥74, 73-55, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (\<33 and ≥33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada, Asia, and rest of the world). An unstructured covariance structure was used. Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were implicitly imputed by MMRM. Invalid BCVA values were excluded from analysis. 95% CI is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Participant Flow

A total of 989 patients were screened, 318 of whom failed screening most commonly due to not meeting inclusion criteria. A total of 671 treatment-naive patients with nAMD were randomized 1:1 into the study: 334 to the faricimab arm and 337 to the aflibercept arm.

Measure
Arm A: Faricimab
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: From Baseline through Week 48

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The Mixed Model of Repeated Measures (MMRM) analysis adjusted for treatment arm, visit, visit-by-treatment arm interaction, baseline BCVA (continuous), baseline BCVA (≥74, 73-55, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (\<33 and ≥33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada, Asia, and rest of the world). An unstructured covariance structure was used. Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were implicitly imputed by MMRM. Invalid BCVA values were excluded from analysis. 95% CI is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, average of Weeks 40, 44, and 48

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. Participants with at least one non-missing, valid assessment at Weeks 40, 44, or 48 were included in this analysis.

BCVA was measured on the ETDRS chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. For each participant, an average BCVA value was calculated across the three visits, and this averaged value was used to determine if the endpoint was met. The results were summarized as the percentage of participants per treatment arm who met the endpoint. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Treatment policy strategy and hypothetical strategy were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=292 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=300 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. At a given timepoint, the number analyzed includes participants with a non-missing, valid assessment at that timepoint.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA letter score from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world; Asia and rest of the world were combined). Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after the occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded from analysis. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=334 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=337 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. Participants with at least one non-missing, valid assessment at Weeks 40, 44, or 48 were included in this analysis.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. For each participant, an average BCVA value was calculated across the three visits, and this averaged value was then used to determine if the endpoint was met. The results were summarized as the percentage of participants per treatment arm who met the endpoint. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Treatment policy strategy and hypothetical strategy were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, average of Weeks 52, 56, and 60

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. Participants with at least one non-missing, valid assessment at Weeks 52, 56, or 60 were included in this analysis.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. For each participant, an average BCVA value was calculated across the three visits, and this averaged value was then used to determine if the endpoint was met. The results were summarized as the percentage of participants per treatment arm who met the endpoint. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Treatment policy strategy and hypothetical strategy were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=277 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).

Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=337 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, average of Weeks 40, 44, and 48

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. Participants with at least one non-missing, valid assessment at Weeks 40, 44, or 48 were included in this analysis.

BCVA was measured on the ETDRS chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. For each participant, an average BCVA value was calculated across the three visits, and this averaged value was used to determine if the endpoint was met. The results were summarized as the percentage of participants per treatment arm who met the endpoint. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Treatment policy strategy and hypothetical strategy were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=300 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. At a given timepoint, the number analyzed includes participants with a non-missing, valid assessment at that timepoint.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA letter score from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (\<69 letters vs. ≥69 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world; Asia and rest of the world were combined). Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after the occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded from analysis. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, average of Weeks 40, 44, and 48

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. Participants with at least one non-missing, valid assessment at Weeks 40, 44, or 48 were included in this analysis.

BCVA was measured on the ETDRS chart at a starting distance of 4 meters. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score), and a gain in BCVA from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. For each participant, an average BCVA value was calculated across the three visits, and this averaged value was used to determine if the endpoint was met. The results were summarized as the percentage of participants per treatment arm who met the endpoint. The weighted percentage of participants was based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Treatment policy strategy and hypothetical strategy were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. Invalid BCVA values were excluded. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=315 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. At a given timepoint, the number analyzed includes participants with a non-missing, valid assessment at that timepoint.

Intraretinal fluid was measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the central subfield (center 1 millimetre \[mm\]). The weighted estimates of the percentage of participants with absence of intraretinal fluid were based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Asia and rest of the world regions were combined due to a small number of enrolled participants. Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after the occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=334 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=337 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Population: ITT Population: all participants who were randomized in the study, grouped according to the treatment assigned at randomization. At a given timepoint, the number analyzed includes participants with a non-missing, valid assessment at that timepoint.

Pigment epithelial detachment was measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the central subfield (center 1 mm). The weighted estimates of the percentage of participants with absence of pigment epithelial detachment were based on the Cochran-Mantel Haenszel (CMH) weights stratified by baseline BCVA (≥74 letters, 73-55 letters, and ≤54 letters), baseline LLD (≥33 letters and \<33 letters), and region (U.S. and Canada vs. rest of the world). Asia and rest of the world regions were combined due to a small number of enrolled participants. Treatment policy strategy (i.e., all observed values used) and hypothetical strategy (i.e., all values censored after the occurrence of the intercurrent event) were applied to non-COVID-19 related and COVID-19 related intercurrent events, respectively. Missing data were not imputed. 95% confidence interval (CI) is a rounding of 95.03% CI.

Arm A: Faricimab
n=334 Participants
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=337 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=336 Participants
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).

Measure
Arm A: Faricimab
n=333 participants at risk
Participants randomized to Arm A received 6 mg of faricimab intravitreally (IVT) once every 4 weeks (Q4W) up to Week 12 (4 injections). At Week 20, protocol-defined assessment of disease activity required Arm A participants with active disease to be treated with a once every 8 weeks (Q8W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab (i.e., injections at Weeks 20, 28, 36, 44, 52, and 60). A second protocol-defined assessment of disease activity at Week 24 required Arm A participants with active disease (excluding those with active disease at Week 20) to be treated with a once every 12 weeks (Q12W) dosing regimen of 6 mg of faricimab IVT (i.e., injections at Weeks 24, 36, 48, and 60). Participants receiving faricimab who did not have active disease according to the protocol-defined criteria at Week 20 and Week 24 were treated with 6 mg of faricimab IVT once every 16 weeks (Q16W) (i.e., injections at Weeks 28, 44, and 60). From Week 60 (when all Arm A participants were scheduled to receive study drug) to Week 108, Arm A participants were to be treated according to a personalized treatment interval (PTI) dosing regimen (Q8W, Q12W, or Q16W).
Arm B: Aflibercept
n=336 participants at risk
Participants randomized to the active comparator (Arm B), a 2 mg dose of aflibercept was administered intravitreally (IVT) Q8W after 3 consecutive monthly doses during the 108-week treatment period. Participants were to receive 15 IVT injections of aflibercept during the 108-week treatment period. This will consist of three initiating injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q4W to Week 8), followed by 12 maintenance injections (2 mg of aflibercept Q8W at Weeks 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96, and 104).
