Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a Phase III, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, active comparator-controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of faricimab in patients with myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV). This non-inferiority study will compare 6.0 mg faricimab versus 0.5 mg ranibizumab administered at a pro-re-nata (PRN) dosing regimen after an initial active IVT treatment administration at randomization (Day 1).

Inclusion criteria

  1. Treatment-naïve choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to myopia

  2. Diagnosis of active myopic CNV in the study eye:

    1. Presence of high myopia, worse than -6 diopters of spherical equivalence
    2. Antero-posterior elongation measurement greater than or equal to 26.0 mm
    3. Presence of posterior changes compatible with pathologic myopia (e.g., tessellated fundus, lacquer cracks, etc.)
    4. Presence of active leakage from CNV on FFA (determined by Central Reading Centre [CRC])
    5. Presence of intraretinal or subretinal fluid or increase of CST on OCT (determined by CRC)
  3. BCVA of 78 to 24 letters, inclusive (20/32 to 20/320 approximate Snellen equivalent), using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) protocol on Day 1

  4. Overtly healthy as determined by medical evaluation that includes medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests

  5. Ability to comply with the study protocol, in the Investigator's judgment

  6. Other protocol-defined inclusion criteria apply

Exclusion criteria

  1. Any major illness or major surgical procedure within 1 month before screening
  2. Pregnancy or breastfeeding, or intention to become pregnant during the study or within 3 months after the final study treatment administration
  3. Uncontrolled blood pressure (systolic >180 millimetres of mercury [mmHg], diastolic >100 mmHg)
  4. Stroke (cerebral vascular accident) or myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to Day 1
  5. History of systemic or ocular disease that would contraindicate treatment with the investigational drug or comparator
  6. Uncontrolled glaucoma in study eye
  7. Any prior or concomitant treatment for CNV or vitreomacular-interface abnormalities, including, but not restricted to, intravitreal, periocular or laser interventions in study eye
  8. Prior or concomitant periocular or intravitreal pharmacological treatment, including anti-VEGF medication, for other retinal diseases (e.g. geography atrophy, nAMD, DME etc.) in study eye
  9. Other protocol-defined exclusion criteria apply

Triple Blind

280 participants in 2 patient groups

Arm A: Faricimab
Experimental group
Description:
All participants randomly assigned to Arm A will receive faricimab 6 mg at Day 1. Once every 4 weeks (Q4W) after Day 1, participants will receive treatment with faricimab on a pro re nata (PRN) basis dependent on prespecified retreatment criteria.
Treatment:
Drug: Faricimab
Procedure: Sham Procedure
Arm B: Ranibizumab
Active Comparator group
Description:
All participants randomly assigned to Arm B will receive ranibizumab 0.5 mg at Day 1. Once every 4 weeks (Q4W) after Day 1, participants will receive treatment with ranibizumab on a pro re nata (PRN) basis dependent on prespecified retreatment criteria.
Treatment:
Drug: Ranibizumab
Procedure: Sham Procedure
