Phase II/III Study of the Efficacy and Safety of MacuCLEAR MC-1101 in Treating DryAge-Related Macular Degeneration

Status unconfirmed · Phase 2/Phase 3

Conditions studied: Non-Exudative Age Related Macular Degeneration

In brief

This is a Phase II/III,vehicle controlled, double masked, single center study. A single eye of 60 individuals with mild to moderate non-exudative Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) will be randomly assigned to receive either topical 1% MC-1101 or a vehicle control over 2 years. The study design will assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of MC-1101 for these patients. An analysis of the primary and secondary endpoints will be conducted when all subjects have completed Baseline, 1, 3, 6, 12,18 and 24 months.
