A Clinical Trial to Explore Safety and Efficacy of Different Doses of Pegaptanib Sodium, Compared to Sham, in Patients With Wet AMD.

May 2, 2006 updated by: Eyetech Pharmaceuticals

A PHASE II/III RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-MASKED, CONTROLLED, DOSE-RANGING, MULTI-CENTER COMPARATIVE TRIAL, IN PARALLEL GROUPS, TO ESTABLISH THE SAFETY AND EFFICACY OF INTRAVITREAL INJECTIONS OF EYE001 (ANTI-VEGF PEGYLATED APTAMER) GIVEN EVERY 6 WEEKS FOR 54 WEEKS, IN PATIENTS WITH EXUDATIVE AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION (AMD)

The purpose of this study is to compare the ability of different doses of pegaptanib sodium to safely and effectively minimize fluid leakage within the eye, thereby stabilizing or impriving vision in patients with wet AMD when compared to placebo injections.
