Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration study: 4D-150 IVT vs Aflibercept IVT
Official title 4D-150 in Patients With Neovascular (Wet) Age-Related Macular Degeneration
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05197270
What this study is testing
What is 4D-150?
an investigational AAV‑based gene therapy being studied for neovascular (wet) age‑related macular degeneration. is designed to deliver genetic material that produces a protein (aflibercept) and miRNA to lower VEGF‑C levels in the eye.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This study is testing how well a new eye drop works. It also checks how safe it is and what side effects it causes.
- Who it's for
- You may be able to join if you have wet age-related macular degeneration.
- What's involved
- You would get eye drops in one eye. You might also get a pretend treatment in the other eye.
- Time commitment
- The study involves visits to check your eyes over time.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
