Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Number of Subjects With a Serious Adverse Event That, in the Opinion of the Investigator, is Related to the Study Drug
A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any adverse experience that results in death, is life-threatening, requires hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, is a congenital anomaly/birth defect, or is an important medical event. All SAEs related to the study drug are reported. No statistical analysis was conducted.
Mean Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP)
IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry and reported in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. A more negative change indicates a greater amount of improvement. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. No statistical analysis was conducted.
Change in GA Lesion Size From Baseline to Day 337 as Measured by Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF)
Geographic atrophy, also known as atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or advanced dry AMD, is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that can result in the progressive and irreversible loss of retina which can lead to a loss of visual function over time. Geographic atrophy (GA) lesion size was assessed by a Central Reading Center (CRC) using FAF. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change in GA Lesion Size From Baseline to Day 85, 169, and 253 as Measured by FAF
Geographic atrophy, also known as atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or advanced dry AMD, is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that can result in the progressive and irreversible loss of retina which can lead to a loss of visual function over time. Geographic atrophy (GA) lesion size was assessed by a Central Reading Center (CRC) using FAF. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Mean Change in GA Lesion Size From Baseline to Day 421 as Measured by FAF
Geographic atrophy, also known as atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or advanced dry AMD, is an advanced form of age-related macular degeneration that can result in the progressive and irreversible loss of retina which can lead to a loss of visual function over time. Geographic atrophy (GA) lesion size was assessed by a Central Reading Center (CRC) using FAF. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. Day 421 measurements were only summarized descriptively and did not include any statistical modeling.
Change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) From Baseline by Visit up to Day 337 as Measured by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)
BCVA was assessed using ETDRS testing at 4 meters. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. BCVA change was defined as a change in letters read from the baseline assessment. A positive change value indicates improvement. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Change in Low Luminance Visual Acuity (LLVA) From Baseline up to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
Low Luminance Visual Acuity (VA) was assessed using ETDRS testing at 4 meters with a neutral density filter to reduce chart luminance to 3 candelas/m2. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. BCVA change was defined as a change in letters read from the baseline assessment. A positive change value indicates improvement. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Change in LLVA Deficit From Baseline up to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
Low Luminance Visual Acuity (VA) was assessed using ETDRS testing at 4 meters with a neutral density filter to reduce chart luminance to 3 candelas/m2. A deficit in LLVA is defined as a loss in letters read from baseline. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. A negative change value indicates improvement (more letters read). One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Average Change in BCVA From Baseline to the Period Day 281 to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
BCVA was assessed using ETDRS testing at 4 meters. Day 281, Day 309, and Day 337 were averaged and compared to baseline. BCVA change was defined as a change in letters read from the baseline assessment. A positive change value indicates improvement. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. No statistical analysis was conducted.
Average Change in LLVA From Baseline to the Period Day 281 to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
LLVA was assessed at 4 meters using a neutral density filter to reduce chart luminance to 3 candelas/m2. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. Day 281, Day 309, and Day 337 were averaged and compared to baseline. BCVA change was defined as a change in letters read from the baseline assessment. A positive change value indicates improvement. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. No statistical analysis was conducted.
Average LLVA Deficit (Letters) Change From Baseline at Day 281 to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
LLVA was assessed at 4 meters using a neutral density filter to reduce chart luminance to 3 candelas/m2. A deficit in LLVA is defined as a loss in letters read from baseline. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. Day 281, Day 309, and Day 337 were averaged and compared to baseline. A negative change value indicates improvement (more letters read). One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
Percentage of Subjects With Letter Change in BCVA From Baseline up to Day 337 as Measured by ETDRS
BCVA was assessed using ETDRS testing at 4 meters. Baseline is defined as the last measurement prior to first dose of treatment. BCVA change was defined as a change in letters read from the baseline assessment and is reported categorically. One eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis. No statistical analysis was conducted.
Total CLG561 Serum Concentrations up to Day 421
Serum concentrations at each collection time point were quantitated, where possible, using a validated immunoassay method.
Total LFG316 Serum Concentration up to Day 421
Serum concentrations at each collection time point were quantitated, where possible, using a validated immunoassay method.
Percentage of Subjects With Anti-CLG561 Antibodies up to Day 421
