What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether a new drug called ABP 938 works as well as the approved treatment Eylea HD for wet age-related macular degeneration, a leading cause of vision loss. About 304 people aged 50 and older with untreated wet AMD will receive injections of either drug into the eye. The main goal is to see if vision improvement is similar between the two groups.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ABP 938 (a biosimilar of aflibercept) and aflibercept (Eylea HD)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a more affordable treatment option for wet age-related macular degeneration, helping preserve vision.
What could go wrong
This is a similarity study, not a new cure. Even if ABP 938 works as well as Eylea HD, it still requires regular eye injections and does not restore lost vision.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Men or women ≥ 50 years old, capable of giving signed informed consent * Active, treatment-naïve subfoveal CNV lesions secondary to nAMD including juxtafoveal lesions that affect the fovea as confirmed by SD-OCT and FA in the study eye (SE) * Total area of CNV (including both classic and occult components) \> 50% of the total lesion area in the SE * The BCVA letter score ≥ 24 and ≤ 78 letters, in the SE * Presence of intra and/or subretinal fluid affecting the central subfield of the SE as identified by SD-OCT attributable to active CNV. The central subfield is defined as a circle with a diameter of 1 mm, centered on the fovea Exclusion Criteria: Participants are excluded from the study if any of the following criteria apply at either screening or baseline, unless otherwise indicated per protocol: * Total lesion size \> 12 disc areas (30.5 mm2) including blood, scars, and neovascularization, in the study eye * Scar, fibrosis, or atrophy involving the central subfield in the study eye * Scar or fibrosis involving \> 50% of the total lesion in the study eye * Presence of retinal pigment epithelium tears or rips involving the macula in the study eye * History of any vitreous hemorrhage ≤ 4 weeks (28 days) before randomization in the study * Presence of other causes of CNV, including pathologic myopia (spherical equivalent ≥ 8 diopters negative or axial length ≥ 25 mm), ocular histoplasmosis syndrome, angioid streaks, choroidal rupture, or multifocal choroiditis in the study * Uncontrolled glaucoma (defined as IOP \>25 mmHg despite treatment with anti-glaucoma medication) in the study eye * History or clinical evidence of DR, DME, idiopathic autoimmune uveitis, or any other vascular disease affecting the retina, other than nAMD in either eye * Evidence of active extraocular or periocular infection or inflammation (including infectious blepharitis, keratitis, scleritis, or conjunctivitis) in either eye at the time of screening or randomization * Uncontrolled blood pressure (defined as systolic \>160 mmHg or diastolic \>95 mmHg). Blood pressure needs to be stable for at least 12 weeks (84 days) prior to screening * Any prior or concomitant ocular or systemic treatment (with an investigational or approved, anti VEGF or anti-VEGF/anti-angiopoietin agent) in the SE, or surgery for nAMD in the SE, except dietary supplements or vitamins * History or evidence of any other clinically significant disorder, condition, disease or clinical laboratory abnormality that, in the opinion of the investigator or study medical monitor, if consulted, would pose a risk to participant safety or interfere with the study evaluation or results interpretation * Other protocol-specified exclusion criteria
