Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline and week 4;Main Objective: To demonstrate the equivalence of efficacy of SB11 to Lucentis® in subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration;Secondary Objective: •To evaluate the safety of SB11 and Lucentis® •To evaluate the immunogenicity of SB11 and Lucentis® •To evaluate the systemic exposure of SB11 and Lucentis® in subjects participating in pharmacokinetics (PK) evaluation ;Primary end point(s): For European Medicines Agency (EMA) or other regulatory agency submissions for those who are in favour of the anatomical parameter, the primary endpoint is: •Change from baseline in Central Subfield Thickness (CST) at Week 4 (based on assessment by central reading centre)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
