Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Evaluation of Dosing Interval of Higher Doses of Ranibizumab for patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Phase 4 study to test the safety, tolerability and effectiveness of a higher doses (1.0 mg and 2.0 mg) of ranibizumab versus the standard dose (0.5 mg), in adults with age related macular degeneration who have never been treated with ranibizumab. An additional purpose is to determine if the higher doses (1.0 mg and 2.0 mg) of ranibizumab can increase the time between doses beyond that currently needed with the 0.5 mg dose.
