Full description

This is a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of multiple intravitreal injection TK001 in patients with AMD. It consists of core study (12 weeks) and extension study (40 weeks). In the core study, patients will receive their assigned dose in a 50-μL solution administered as an intravitreal injection every 4 weeks. In the extension study, they will be evaluated every 4 weeks and administrated PRN (pro re nata) with their assigned dose. The safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy of TK001 will be evaluated in the core study, and will also be assessed in the extension study except pharmacokinetics.

Enrollment: 36 estimated patients

• Pregnant and lactating women or patients who cannot take contraceptive measures
• Poor compliance
• Patients who participated other clinical trials within 30 days before screening or was taking other clinical trials at present
• Patients who is considered unsuitable for enrollment by investigator
