Phase III: Ranibizumab in Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (Sightspire)

Clinical Trial Overview

Clinical Trial Overview

Recruiting

A Phase IIIb, Multicenter, Single-arm Study Assessing the Effectiveness, Safety and Patient Reported Outcomes of a 36-week Refill Exchange Regimen for the Port Delivery System With Ranibizumab in Patients With Neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration

Objective

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, and PROs of the port delivery system with ranibizumab 100 milligrams/milliliters (mg/mL) refilled every 36 weeks (Q36W) in participants with nAMD.

Primary Endpoints

  • Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) Score Averaged Over Weeks 68 and 72, as Assessed Using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Chart at a Starting Distance of 4 Meters

Secondary Endpoints

  • Change From Baseline in BCVA Score Over Time
  • Percentage of Participants Who Lose ≤ 15, ≤ 10, ≤ 5, or Gain ≥ 0 Letters in BCVA Score From Baseline Over Time
  • Change From Baseline in Center Point Thickness (CPT)
  • Change From Baseline in Central Subfield Thickness (CST)
  • Proportion of Participants Who do not Undergo Supplemental Treatment With IVT Ranibizumab Before Each Refill-exchange Procedure
  • Number of Supplemental Treatments Participants Received in Each Refill Cycle
  • Frequency of Study Visits in Each Refill Cycle
  • Proportion of Participants Who Report Preferring PDS Compared With IVT Ranibizumab Treatment as Measured by the PDS Patient Preference Questionnaire (PPPQ) at Weeks 24 and 72
  • Proportion of Participants With Bilateral Disease Who Report Preferring PDS Compared With IVT Ranibizumab Treatment Measured by the PPPQ at Weeks 24 and 72
  • Number of Participants With Ocular and Systemic (Non-ocular) Adverse Events (AEs)
  • Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interests (AESIs) and their Severity, Including Ocular AESIs
  • Number of Participants With Ocular AESIs and Severity of Ocular AESIs During the Post-operative and Follow-up Period
  • Number of Participants With Adverse Device Effects (ADEs) and Severity of ADEs With PDS
  • Number of Participants With Anticipated Serious Adverse Device Effects (ASADEs) and Severity of ASADEs With PDS

  • Use of any systemic anti-VEGF agents
  • Chronic use of oral corticosteroids
  • Active cancer within 12 months of enrollment except for appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin carcinoma, and prostate cancer
