What this trial studies

This phase 3 interventional study is designed to compare the efficacy of EYP-1901, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, against Aflibercept in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD). The study will involve a randomized, double-masked approach to ensure unbiased results, with primary efficacy assessed at week 56. Participants will include both previously treated and treatment-naïve patients who meet specific visual acuity criteria. The goal is to determine if EYP-1901 can provide better outcomes than the current standard treatment.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are patients with a documented diagnosis of wAMD and a specific range of visual acuity scores.

Not a fit: Patients with severe vision loss or certain types of eye damage, such as subfoveal fibrosis or scarring, may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer improved vision outcomes for patients suffering from wet age-related macular degeneration.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but the specific efficacy of EYP-1901 remains to be fully established.

Eligibility criteria

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Previously treated or treatment naïve patients with a documented diagnosis of wAMD in the study eye, with onset of disease that began at any time prior to the Screening Visit.
* Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter score between 78 to 35 letters (approximately 20/32 to 20/200 Snellen equivalent) in the study eye at the Screening Visit and on Baseline (Day 1).
* For previously-treated subjects, must have been treated with at least 2 anti-VEGF IVT injections (i.e., aflibercept 2 mg, aflibercept 8 mg, bevacizumab, ranibizumab, or faricimab) in the previous 6 months for wAMD per standard of care in the study eye prior to the Screening Visit.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subfoveal fibrosis, atrophy, or scarring in the center subfield.
* BCVA using ETDRS charts \<20 letters (20/400 Snellen equivalent) in the fellow eye.
