PDS With Ranibizumab (100 mg/mL)Ranibizumab (10 mg/mL)

PDS With Ranibizumab (100 mg/mL): Participants randomized to the implant arm will have the implant (filled prior to implantation with approximately 20 microliters (μL) of the 100 mg/mL formulation of ranibizumab \[approximately 2 mg dose of ranibizumab\]) surgically inserted in the study eye at the Day 1 visit following their randomization visit, or at Week 48 visit for participants randomized to the IVT arm. After the initial fill of the implant with ranibizumab, participants will receive implant refill-exchanges at fixed 24-week intervals.

Ranibizumab (10 mg/mL): Participants in the IVT arm will receive their first IVT injection of 50 μL of the 10 mg/mL ranibizumab (0.5 mg dose) at the Day 1 visit, which will occur at the conclusion of the randomization visit. Afterwards, participants will receive IVT ranibizumab injections of 50 μL of the 10 mg/mL formulation Q4W at each scheduled study visit until Week 44 and bi-monthly visits thereafter, followed by visits every two months until study completion.

Study summary

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and PK of ranibizumab 100 milligrams per milliliter (mg/mL) delivered every 24 weeks (Q24W) via the PDS implant compared with ranibizumab 0.5 milligrams (mg) delivered every 4 weeks (Q4W) as intravitreal (IVT) injection in Chinese participants with nAMD.
