Summary

Dysregulation of the Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2)/Tyrosine kinase with Immunoglobulin-like and EGF-like domains 2 (Tie-2) signaling pathway has been implicated in choroidal vascular instability and RPE dysfunction in Central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) and pachychoroid-associated neovascularization.

This study prospectively evaluates the efficacy and safety of faricimab compared to sham in CSCR with and without secondary neovascularization, using standardized anatomical and functional endpoints. The results of this trial may help define the role of dual pathway inhibition in CSCR and inform future treatment strategies for this challenging and vision threatening condition.

Conditions

  • Central Serous Chorioretinopathy (CSC)

Interventions

DRUG

Faricimab

Intravitreal faricimab 6 mg at baseline, month 1, and month 2, followed by protocol-defined Pro Re Nata (PRN) dosing at monthly visits through Month 6.

DRUG

Sham

Sham injections at baseline, month 1, and month 2. After assessment of the primary endpoint at Month 3, participants randomized to the sham arm who demonstrate persistent intraretinal and/or subretinal fluid will switch to intravitreal faricimab treatment by protocol-defined PRN dosing at monthly visits through Month 6.
