About this trial

This phase 2 trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study in patients with wet AMD to assess the efficacy and safety of NT-101 topical ophthalmic solution (0.20 mM) administered into the study eye twice daily (BID) for 12 weeks.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Subject who is male or female ≥ 50 years of age at Screening.

CNV lesions affect the fovea, as evidenced by fluorescein angiography in study eye.

Intraretinal and/or subretinal fluid affecting the central subfield visible on OCT. If fluid is not visible due to previous treatment, earlier documented OCT images showing fluid for diagnosing wet AMD can be reviewed to fulfill this criterion.

BCVA between 35 and 78 letters, inclusive, in the study eye at Screening using ETDRS testing, with BCVA decrement primarily attributable to wet AMD.

Disqualifiers

Subject who has the following illness or abnormal laboratory test values at

Uncontrolled hypertension (systolic > 180 mmHg or diastolic > 100 mmHg) despite optimal medical regimen

Uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c > 12.0%)

Total bilirubin > 1.5 × Upper Limit of Normal (ULN)
