Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participant must have at least one study eye with a positive diagnosis of MacTel Type 2
  • Participant must have an Inner Segment - Outer Segment Junction Line (IS/OS) Photo Receptor (PR) break in the study eye(s) and en face EZ (area of IS/OS loss) as measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SDOCT) between 0.16 mm^2 and 2.00 mm^2
  • Participant's best corrected visual acuity is 54 letter score or better (20/80 or better) as measured by the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participant received intravitreal steroid therapy for non-neovascular MacTel within the last 3 months
  • Participant has ever received intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in the study eye or has, within the past 3 months, received intravitreal anti-VEGF in the fellow eye
  • Participant has evidence of ocular disease other than MacTel that, in the judgment of the examining physician, may confound the diagnosis, procedures or outcome of the study
  • Participant was a study participant in any other clinical trial of an intervention (drug or device) within the last 6 months
  • Participant is pregnant or breastfeeding
  • Participant has a chronic requirement (eg ≥ 4 weeks at a time) for ocular medications
