Brief Summary

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

A non-inferiority design was used to conduct a randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled multi-center study. A total of 488 subjects with neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (w-AMD) were planned to be enrolled. Qualified subjects were divided into experimental group and control group in a 1:1 ratio, and stratified randomized according to the letter value of baseline period and whether the eyes had received anti-VEGF drug treatment. The experimental group received BAT5906 injection. The control group received Lucentis® treatment. Only 1 eye per subject was included in this study.

Detailed Description

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

A non-inferiority design was used to conduct a randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled multi-center study. A total of 488 subjects with neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (w-AMD) were planned to be enrolled. Qualified subjects were divided into experimental group and control group in a 1:1 ratio, and stratified randomized according to the letter value of baseline period and whether the eyes had received anti-VEGF drug treatment. The experimental group received BAT5906 injection. The control group received Lucentis® treatment. Only 1 eye per subject was included in this study.

The administration regimen was as follows: once every 4 weeks, 4mg BAT5906 or 0.5mg Lucentis® were injected intravitreal each time, the treatment period of the study was 48 weeks, a total of 13 administration times, the last follow-up was conducted at the 52nd week, the last visit did not require treatment, only efficacy and safety assessment, and blood samples were collected as required.

Ophthalmic examination, vital signs, physical examination, and laboratory examination were performed for efficacy and safety assessment according to the test procedures specified in the protocol, and blood samples were collected for immunogenicity indicators. Change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from baseline was assessed by ETDRS visual acuity chart at 4-week intervals. The primary efficacy measure was the change in BCVA from baseline at 52 weeks. Secondary efficacy measures were the change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of the target eye from baseline and the change in macular fovea thickness (CRT) from baseline at weeks 12, 24, 36 and 48.

Blood samples were collected according to the time points specified in the program, and the serum anti-drug antibody (ADA) was detected. Titer analysis and neutralizing antibody (Nab) analysis were performed on the samples confirmed as positive by ADA.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Understand and sign the informed consent, and be willing to follow up according to the time specified in the trial;
2. Age 50-85 years old (including boundary value), male and female;
3. Study the subjects who were diagnosed with neovascular age-related macular degeneration and still had active lesions confirmed by imaging examination. Active lesions were defined as the presence of any of the following lesions in the macular area: ① intraretinal fluid; ② Lipid exudation in the retina; ③ Subretinal fluid; (4) Subretinal hemorrhage; (5) Retinal pigment epithelium detachment; ⑥ Choroidal neovascularization leakage;
