      Trial Summary

      This clinical trial was done to find out if a new medicine called, “galegenimab,” was effective for the treatment of patients with a type of eye disease (geographic atrophy [GA] secondary to age-related macular degeneration [AMD]). This was a phase 2, randomized, sham-controlled study to assess the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of eye injections (intravitreal injections) given to patients with GA secondary to AMD. The study took place at 77 study centers at 71 study sites in one country – the USA.

      Exclusion Criteria

      Ocular Exclusion Criteria, Study Eye:

      • History of vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, or any surgical intervention for AMD;
      • Previous laser photocoagulation or ITV anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) for CNV, diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion, or proliferative diabetic retinopathy.

      Ocular Exclusion Criteria, Both Eyes:

      • GA in either eye due to causes other than AMD;

      • Active, infectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis, or endophthalmitis in either eye;
      • Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear that involves the macula in either eye;
