About
This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BRX011, an oral medication, taken once daily by participants with geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration. The study is conducted in phases 1 and 2, focusing on assessing both safety (tolerability) and effectiveness (efficacy) of the treatment.
Participants: Adults with geographic atrophy due to age-related macular degeneration.
Treatment: BRX011 or Placebo is taken once daily as per the protocol.
Duration: The study involves multiple visits over 96 weeks to monitor participants' health and response to treatment.
Safety Monitoring: Regular checks for adverse events and health status to ensure participant well-being. Checks will include examination of vital signs, clinical labs, ocular exams, and ocular imaging.
Primary Outcome Measure: Efficacy of BRX011 in the annual rate of change in the square root of GA area, as specified in the protocol.
