Description

Main Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participant is ≥18 years old at the time of signing the ICF.
  • Participant is willing and able to comply with all study procedures and likely to complete the study, based on the investigator's judgment.
  • Participant has a diagnosis of DME secondary to DM with central involvement in the study eye.
  • Participant has a BCVA ETDRS letter score of 73 to 34 letters inclusive (20/40 to 20/200 Snellen equivalent) in the study eye at screening and on Day 1 prior randomization.
  • Participant's decrease in vision is determined to be primarily the result of DME in the study eye.

Main Exclusion Criteria:

  • previous treatment with anti-VEGF therapy
  • history or concurrent disease other than DME that could compromise visual acuity
  • Any condition that, in the Investigator ́s opinion, can interfere with full participation in the study, including administration of the study treatment and attending required visits; can pose a significant risk to the participant, or interfere with interpretation of study data
  • participants not suitable for participation, whatever the reason, as judged by the Investigator, including medical or psychiatric conditions, or participants potentially at risk of noncompliance to study procedures.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: AVT29 (proposed aflibercept HD biosimilar)
Participants will receive 1 IVT injection of AVT29 at baseline and every 4 weeks for 2 consecutive monthly visits (at Week 4 and Week 8), followed by 1 IVT injection every 8 to 16 weeks based on DRM criteria through study completion.
Patients will receive IVT injections of AVT29
Active Comparator: Eylea HD (aflibercept HD)
Participants will receive 1 IVT injection of Eylea HD at baseline and every 4 weeks for 2 consecutive monthly visits (at Week 4 and Week 8), followed by 1 IVT injection every 8 to 16 weeks based on DRM criteria through study completion.
Patients will receive IVT injections of Eylea HD
