Implant arm

Intravitreal arm

Arm Description

Participants will have the implant (pre-filled intraoperatively with ranibizumab 100 mg/mL) surgically inserted on Day 1. After Day 1, patients in the implant arm will attend monthly study visits, and receive implant refill-exchanges with ranibizumab 100 mg/mL at Week 24 and Week 48. At the Week 48 study visit, patients will move to the long term extension phase of the study and continue receiving refill-exchanges Q24W until the end of study. Patients will attend monthly visits up to Week 96 and bi-monthly visits, thereafter

Participants will receive intravitreal ranibizumab 0.5 mg injections starting on Day 1. Patients will receive intravitreal ranibizumab 0.5 mg Q4W until Week 44. At the Week 48 study visit, patients will receive the PDS implant (pre-filled intraoperatively with ranibizumab 100 mg/mL), move to the long-term extension phase of the study and receive Q24W refill exchanges until the end of study. If patients are unable to attend the Week 48 visit due to extenuating circumstances, they should return no later than the next scheduled visit (Week 52), when they will receive the PDS implant. Patients will attend monthly visits up to Week 96 and bi-monthly visits, thereafter.
