If both eyes receive first injection Macugen after initiation of the study, only the first treated eye will be included in the analysis. If one eye has already received Macugen when the study starts and the second eye receives injection after the study initiation, the second eye will be included in the analysis.
The study was prematurely discontinued due to delay in meeting pre-defined protocol recruitment milestones on August 30, 2010. There were no safety concerns regarding the study in the decision to terminate the trial.
