Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) at Final Visit
Time Frame: Baseline, Final Visit (Week 104 or early termination [ET])
Visual acuity (VA) measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. Decimal VA data presented as Logarithm of Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR), logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss, while negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts (85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results were based on study eye for which medication was given.
Baseline, Final Visit (Week 104 or early termination [ET])

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) at Each Visit
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
VA measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. Decimal VA data presented as logMAR, logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss, while negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts (85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results were based on study eye for which medication was given.
Baseline, Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
Number of Participants With Change in Visual Acuity (VA) as Compared to Previous Examination
Time Frame: Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
VA measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss,negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts(85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results based on study eye for which medication was given. Number of participants with VA improved, unchanged or worsened as compared to previous examination reported.
Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
Physician's Assessment of Efficacy
Time Frame: Week 104 or End of study (EOS)
Efficacy was based on the study eye for which pegaptanib treatment was given. Number of participants with each grade of efficacy of treatment, as assessed by the physician was reported on the 5 point categorical scale: excellent, very good, good, fair, poor.
Week 104 or End of study (EOS)

Other Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Procedures for Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Diagnosis and Monitoring
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
Procedures used for diagnosis of AMD and monitoring of the course of treatment included fluorescein angiography (FA), optical coherent tomography (OCT), or other (Ot) procedure apart from FA and OCT. OCT, FA, and other are not mutually exclusive, hence same participant may be included in more than 1 procedure for AMD diagnosis and monitoring at a particular time point.
Baseline, Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102
Number of Participants Who Discontinued Treatment Due to Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship.
Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Duration of Treatment
Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Duration of treatment (in weeks) was calculated as: (date of the last injection of study medication minus date of the first injection of study medication plus 1) divided by 7.
Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Mean Number of Doses of Study Medication Received
Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Physician's Assessment of Tolerability
Time Frame: Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
Number of participants with each grade of tolerability of treatment as assessed by physician was evaluated on the five point categorical scale: excellent, very good, good, fair, poor.
Baseline up to Week 104 (EOS)
