Age-related Macular Degeneration
Conditions
Brief summary
This is an open label, non-controlled, dose-escalating study assessing the safety, tolerability, and bioactivity of a single intravitreal (i.vt.) injection of RBM-007 in approximately nine subjects with exudative age-related macular degeneration.
Detailed description
Nine subjects in three dose cohorts (3 subjects each cohort) will receive a single i.vt. injection of RBM-007 in the study eye. Subjects will be followed through Day 56.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
1. Male or female 55 years of age or older on the date of signing the informed consent form and able and willing to comply with all treatment and follow-up study procedures. 2. At Screening Visit, subjects must meet all the following inclusion criteria: 3. Must have had prior treatment in the study eye with any intravitreal vasoactive endothelial growth factor (VEGF) medication (at least 3 anti-VEGF) treatments within the prior 2-6 months), throughout which clinical examination and SD-OCT imaging has shown recurrent or persistent exudative activity, as shown by the presence of intraretinal or subretinal fluid, and/or subretinal exudation or hemorrhage. 4. Best corrected visual acuity of 65 to 20 Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters (20/50 to 20/400) in the study eye. 5. Presence of significant subretinal fluid and/or cystoid macular edema secondary to exudative age-related macular degeneration as assessed by optical coherence tomography in the study eye, with a minimum of 300 µm within the central subfield. 6. Total lesion size of ≤9 disc areas, lesion containing ≤50% hemorrhage and ≤50% subretinal fibrosis and ≤50% retinal pigment epithelial atrophy in the study eye. 7. Reasonably clear media and reasonable fixation ability in the study eye to allow for good quality tomography and fundus photography. At Baseline Visit (Day 0), subjects must meet all the following inclusion criteria: 8. Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) of 65 to 20 ETDRS letters (20/50 to 20/400) in the study eye. 9. Presence of significant subretinal and/or intraretinal fluid secondary to exudative age-related macular degeneration as assessed by SD-OCT in the study eye, with a minimum of 300 µm within the central subfield. 10. Total lesion size of ≤9 disc areas, containing ≤ 50% hemorrhage and ≤ 50% fibrosis and ≤ 50% retinal pigment epithelial atrophy in the study eye.
