Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Ranibizumab

A 0.5 mg ranibizumab intravitreal injection was given to the study eye at baseline, and then as needed based on evidence of disease activity.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ranibizumab

Intervention Type DRUG

Ranibizumab 0.5mg/0.5mL was administered intravitreally to the participant.

Sham control

Sham injection was given to the study eye at baseline, and then treatment was given based on evidence of disease activity. At Month 1, if treatment was needed, sham was administered. At Month 2, participants could switch to open-label ranibizumab on an as needed basis.

Group Type SHAM_COMPARATOR

Sham control

Intervention Type OTHER

The sham vial did not contain active drug (empty sterile vial). The sham injection was an imitation of an intravitreal injection using an injection syringe without a needle touching the eye.
