The current standard of care for patients with exudative ("wet") AMD is anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy which must be administered by an injection into the eye every 4-8 weeks.

About this study

Official title: A Double-Masked, Randomized, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of MT-0814 for the Treatment of Patients With Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness among adults in North America. The current standard of care for patients with exudative ("wet") AMD is anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy which must be administered by an injection into the eye every 4-8 weeks. MT-0814 is being developed for the treatment of patients with exudative AMD, and could offer an alternative, safer and less burdensome therapy.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change in Best-corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) : Study Eye

    Change from Baseline in BCVA. BCVA was measured using an eye chart and is reported as number of letters read correctly using Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Scale (0 to 100 letters) in study eye. Lower number of letters read correctly, worse the vision.

    Study eye: eye that meets inclusion criteria. If both eyes meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria, the eye with the lower BCVA at Screening will be selected as the study eye. If both eyes meet all inclusion criteria and have identical BCVA at Screening, selection of the study eye will be at the investigator's discretion.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in Central Subfield Thickness (CSFT) : Study Eye

    Change from Baseline in CSFT, measured by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT).

    Study eye: eye that meets inclusion criteria. If both eyes meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria, the eye with the lower BCVA at Screening will be selected as the study eye. If both eyes meet all inclusion criteria and have identical BCVA at Screening, selection of the study eye will be at the investigator's discretion.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MT-0814 in people with Age-related Macular Degeneration, run by Senju Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 13 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Apr 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Best-corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) : Study Eye (time frame: Baseline and Week 12). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Apr 2021.
