Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether a new drug, QL1207H, works as well as the standard treatment Eylea for wet age-related macular degeneration, a leading cause of vision loss. About 356 adults aged 50 and older with active disease will receive injections every 4 weeks for 3 doses, then every 16 weeks. The main goal is to compare changes in vision after 12 weeks.
