This study is designed to prove and confirm the efficacy and safety of multiple injections of human recombinant vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-Fc fusion protein (KH902) in patients with choroidal neovascularization due to neovascular age-related macular degeneration by comparing intravitreal injections of KH902 with sham-injections.

AMD is the leading cause of severe vision loss in people over the age of 65 in the United States and other western countries. A quantity of documents indicate that neovascularization promoted by VEGF is the main cause of visual acuity decline. Patients are starving for a new drug which can notably improve VA with less administration frequency and lower treatment cost.

The new drug Recombinant Human VEGF Receptor-Fc Fusion Protein (KH902) is a gene fusion protein. The pre-clinical researches and phase II study showed that KH902 is well-tolerated,and safe, it is effective in inhibiting the growth, migration, pullulation of vascular endothelial cells and neovascularization induced by VEGF.

This study is designed to prove and confirm the efficacy and safety of multiple injections of KH902 in patients with choroidal neovascularization due to neovascular age-related macular degeneration by comparing intravitreal injections of KH902 with sham-injections.
