New eye drug aims to save sight in wet AMD
NCT ID NCT06190093
First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This trial tests whether an experimental drug called ONS-5010 (a form of bevacizumab) works as well as an approved drug, Lucentis, for treating wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Wet AMD causes rapid vision loss due to abnormal blood vessels leaking fluid in the eye. About 400 people with active wet AMD will receive injections of either ONS-5010 or Lucentis into the eye. The main goal is to see if ONS-5010 can prevent vision loss as effectively as Lucentis after 8 weeks of treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- bevacizumab (also called ONS-5010)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a more affordable treatment option for wet age-related macular degeneration, helping preserve vision.
- What could go wrong
- This is a Phase 3 trial, so results are not yet confirmed. The drug may not prove as effective as Lucentis, and eye injections carry risks like infection or inflammation.

Inclusion Criteria: * Active primary Subfoveal Choroidal Neovascularization lesions secondary to Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in the study eye * Best corrected visual acuity of 35-75 letters read (20/32 to 20/200 Snellen equivalent) * Study eye must: * Have active leakage on Fluorescein Angiogram involving the fovea * Have edema involving the fovea * Be free of scarring, fibrosis, or atrophy involving the central foveal zone Exclusion Criteria: * Previous subfoveal focal laser photocoagulation in the study eye * Laser photocoagulation (juxtafoveal or extrafoveal) in the study eye within 1-month preceding randomization * Any concurrent intraocular condition in the study eye that may require medical or surgical intervention or contribute to vision loss within 1 year * Active intraocular inflammation (grade trace or above) in the study eye * Current vitreous hemorrhage in the study eye * Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) in the study eye * History of idiopathic or autoimmune-associated uveitis in either eye * Infectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis, or endophthalmitis in either eye * Uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye (defined as intraocular pressure ≥30 mmHg despite treatment with anti-glaucoma medication) * Premenopausal women not using adequate contraception * Current treatment for active systemic infection * Known allergy to any component of the study drug or history of allergy to fluorescein , not amenable to treatment
