About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Age-Related Macular Degeneration focused on measuring AMD, Macugen, Pharmacokinetics, Age-Related Macular Degeneration, PK

Eligibility Criteria

50 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria: Best corrected visual acuity in the study eye between 20/40 and 20/320 and better or equal to 20/800 in the fellow eye. Subfoveal CNV, secondary to AMD, w/ a total lesion size [including blood, scar/atrophy & neovascularization] of less than or equal to 12 disc areas, of which at least 50% must be active CNV. Patients of either sex, aged greater than or equal to 50 years. Exclusion Criteria: Previous subfoveal thermal laser therapy. Any subfoveal scarring or atrophy & no more than 25% of the total lesion size may be made up of scarring or atrophy. More than one prior PDT w/ Visudyne is not permitted. Pts may not have rec'd their 1st PDT w/in less than 8 wks or more than 13 wks prior to the BSL angiography/photography for the study.
