A Single Ascending Dose Cohort Study of AG-73305 in DME Patients

September 29, 2025 updated by: Allgenesis Biotherapeutics Inc.

A Multicenter, Open-Labeled, Phase 2a Study Evaluating the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of Intravitreal AG-73305 in Patients With Diabetic Macular Edema

This is a multi-centered, open-labeled, single ascending-dose-cohort study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 4 dose cohorts of AG-73305 administered by intravitreal injection in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the safety, tolerability, duration of effect, systemic pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity profiles of ascending doses of AG-73305 administered by intravitreal injection to patients with DME. Pharmacodynamic endpoints (e.g., best-corrected visual acuity [BCVA], spectral domain optical coherence tomography [SD-OCT], and optical coherence tomography angiography [OCT-A]) were evaluated over 6 months post-treatment. The maximum tolerated dose or the highest administered dose was evaluated for future studies.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Male or female, 18 years of age or older at the screening visit
  2. Prior diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (Type 1 or Type 2) as defined by World Health Organization or American Diabetes Association
  3. Presence of center-involving DME in the study eye with CST ≥ 325 μm
  4. Visual acuity loss in the study eye attributed to DME with screening and baseline ETDRS BCVA letter score of 20 to 55 (20/400 to 20/80 Snellen equivalent) in the sentinel patients and 35 to 70 (20/200 to 20/40 Snellen equivalent) in the non-sentinel patients
  5. Cohort 1: Previously treated with an anti-VEGF in the study eye; Cohorts 2, 3, and 4: Previously treated or treatment-naïve to the study eye

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus, defined as hemoglobin A1c > 12.0% at Screening
  2. Uncontrolled hypertension with systolic blood pressure ≥ 180 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 100 mmHg at Screening or Baseline
  3. Chronic renal disease
  4. Any active infection in either eye
  5. Any anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment in the study eye within 6 to 8 weeks prior to Baseline
  6. Use of Ozurdex (dexamethasone) within 6 months prior to Baseline or any use of Iluvien (fluocinolone acetonide) in the study eye
  7. Uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP), defined as an IOP > 25 mmHg, despite anti-glaucoma medications in the study eye at the time of screening or controlled glaucoma that requires management with > 2 topical hypotensive medications
  8. Any anti-integrin therapy (e.g., Xiidra) within 60 days before baseline in the study eye

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)
Time Frame: 1 month after dosing
BCVA assessments were performed at all visits utilizing ETDRS charts to assess changes in vision over time. The charts were designed for use at 4 meters. BCVA assessments were performed by certified technicians to minimize bias.
1 month after dosing

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline in Central Subfield Thickness (CST)
Time Frame: 1 month after dosing
SD-OCT imaging was performed at all visits utilizing Heidelberg Spectralis imaging equipment to assess changes over time in the structural details of the posterior segment of the eye. All images were graded by a central reading center.
1 month after dosing
