Q4WKS
Aflibercept 2 mg every 4 weeks (defined as every 28 days (+ 7 days) and at least 21 days between injections) through week 48. Following week 48, aflibercept 2 mg every 12 weeks through week 96.
If NV or PDR are worse per pre-specified criteria at week 60, or at any study visit thereafter, the subject will be treated every 4 weeks through the end of the study.

Q12WKS
Aflibercept 2 mg every 12-weeks. Subjects will be followed every 4 weeks through week 12, and can be treated if the pre-specified criteria are met. Starting at week 12 if NV or PDR are stable or improved (as assessed by investigator) the subject will be monitored and treated at a 12-week interval through week 48. If NV or PDR are worse per the pre-specified criteria at week 12, or at any study visit thereafter, the subject will be treated monthly through the end of the study.
At week 52, aflibercept 2 mg every 4 weeks (defined as 28 days (+ 7 days) and at least 21 days between injections) for subjects with visible retinal non-perfusion. If retinal non-perfusion has completely resolved at week 72, aflibercept every 12 weeks through end of study. For subjects without retinal non-perfusion at week 52, aflibercept 2 mg every 12 weeks through the end of study.
