Safety and Efficacy of Brimonidine Intravitreal Implant in Patients With Geographic Atrophy Due to Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
Information source: Allergan
ClinicalTrials.gov processed this data on August 20, 2015 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Macular Degeneration
Intervention: 400 µg Brimonidine Tartrate Implant (Drug); 200 µg Brimonidine Tartrate Implant (Drug); Sham (no implant) (Other)
Phase: Phase 2
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: Allergan Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Medical Director, Study Director, Affiliation: Allergan
Summary
Stage 1 is a patient-masked, dose-escalation, safety evaluation of brimonidine intravitreal
implant. Patients will receive implant in one eye and "sham" treatment (meaning no
treatment) in the fellow eye. Stage 2 will begin after 1 month of safety has been evaluated
for Stage 1. Stage 2 is a randomized, double-masked, dose-response, sham-controlled
evaluation of the safety and efficacy of brimonidine intravitreal implant in patients with
geographic atrophy from age-related macular degeneration. Patients will be followed for up
to 2 years.
