Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this extension study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the new formulation of brolucizumab 6 mg ophthalmic solution when given to the same patients who received brolucizumab in the core trial CRTH258A2301 (also known as CRTH258-C002). The medical condition treated in the core and extension trials was neo-vascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).

Detailed Description

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

Subjects in the United States who had completed the 96 week core trial, CRTH258A2301 (also referred as CRTH258-C002), were eligible to participate in the extension trial provided the core trial Visit 26 at week 96, was less than or equal to 12 weeks from the Baseline Visit in the extension trial, CRTH258A2301E1.

Subjects who were treated with aflibercept during the core trial and met the eligibility requirements of this extension trial continued to receive aflibercept in this extension trial in order to maintain the masking during the extension trial. No hypothesis testing or descriptive analyses were planned.

Subjects who were treated in the core trial with brolucizumab 3mg or brolucizumab 6 mg, and met the eligibility requirements of this extension trial, received the new formulation of brolucizumab 6 mg solution in the extension trial.

Enrolled subjects were to receive three intravitreal (IVT) ophthalmic injections. The study eye was the same eye that received the treatment in the core study. The extension trial consisted of 7 study visits at 4 week intervals over a period of 24 weeks.

Assessment of the efficacy and safety of brolucizumab 6 mg was based on a within-patient comparison with the last 6 months of corresponding core-study efficacy and safety data serving as the reference. Neither the patient selection process nor expected sample sizes supported a valid comparison between aflibercept and brolucizumab. The aflibercept arm was included only to maintain the masking in the extension trial. Data was presented descriptively for only brolucizumab in line with the study objective. No formal hypothesis testing was planned.
