Safety Tolerability and Efficacy of Intravitreal LMG324 in the Treatment of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Stopped early · Phase 1/Phase 2 · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
In brief
The purpose of this first-in-human study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of LMG324 to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nvAMD) subjects. Enrollment will be expanded at a safe and tolerated dose in treatment naïve nvAMD subjects to compare a single intravitreal (IVT) dose of LMG324 to ranibizumab 0.5 mg administered every 4 weeks for change from baseline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at Week 12 (Day 85).

Who can join
Age: 50 and older. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.
You may qualify if…
- Must give written informed consent, be able to make the required study visits and follow instructions.
- Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 34 letters (approximately 20/200 Snellen or better) in the non-study eye.
- SAD population only:
- Subject's study eye must have a choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesion due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), either treatment naïve or previously treated, that can be expected to benefit, in the opinion of the investigator, from anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy.
- Previously treated eyes must have a history of least 3 administrations of any intravitreal (IVT) anti-VEGF therapeutic for the treatment of CNV with the last injection administered ≥ 1 month prior to the planned administration of the study drug.
- Enrollment expansion population only
- Subject's study eye must have untreated and active CNV lesion due to AMD.
- BCVA, between 73 - 23 letters, inclusive (approximate Snellen equivalent 20/40 - 20/320) in the study eye.
You may not qualify if…
- SAD and enrollment expansion population
- Both eyes: any active ocular or periocular infection or active intraocular inflammation (eg, infectious blepharitis, infectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis, endophthalmitis).
- Study eye: current vitreous hemorrhage or a history of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.
- Study eye: uncontrolled glaucoma (intraocular pressure [IOP] >25 mmHg on medication or according to Investigator's judgment).
- SAD population only
- Presence of any contraindications, in the Investigator's opinion, to IVT anti-VEGF therapeutic administration.
- Enrollment expansion population only
- Study eye: subject has received any approved or investigational treatment for exudative (wet) AMD other than vitamin supplements.
- Study eye: any current or history of macular or retinal disease other than exudative AMD
- Study eye: serous pigment epithelial detachment (PED) under the foveal center or retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear/rip.
- Study eye: any concurrent intraocular condition (eg, cataract, diabetic retinopathy) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, could either require medical or surgical intervention during the course of the study.
- Study eye: other ocular diseases that, in the opinion of the Investigator, can compromise the visual acuity
- Study eye: Surgery, as specified in the protocol.
