Study to Evaluate Suprachoroidally Administered CLS-AX in the Treatment of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

ODYSSEY: A Phase 2b Study of Suprachoroidally Administered CLS-AX in Participants With Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Phase 2b, randomized, double-masked, parallel-group, active-controlled, multicenter, 36-week study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of suprachoroidally administered CLS-AX 1.0 mg with a flexible dosing regimen in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration previously treated with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) standard of care therapy. Only one eye will be chosen as the study eye.

Phase 2b, randomized, double-masked, parallel-group, active-controlled, multicenter, 36-week study designed to assess the safety and efficacy of suprachoroidally administered CLS-AX 1.0 mg with a flexible dosing regimen in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration previously treated with intravitreal anti-VEGF standard of care therapy. Active-control will be 2 mg intravitreal injections of aflibercept dosed per the EYLEA Prescribing Information. Only one eye will be chosen as the study eye.

Key Inclusion Criteria:

• Diagnosis of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) in the study eye within 36 months of Visit 1.
• Subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to nAMD of any lesion type in the study eye that shows total lesion area ≤30 mm2, CNV component area of ≥50% of the total lesion area, and and CNV must not be associated with subfoveal hemorrhage, subfoveal fibrosis, or subfoveal atrophy.
• Previous treatment in the study eye with between 2 and 4 anti-VEGF intravitreal injections for nAMD (faricimab, ranibizumab, bevacizumab, brolucizumab, or aflibercept) per standard of care within 6 months of Visit 1.
• History of response to prior intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment in the study eye.
• ETDRS BCVA of between 20 and 80 letters (inclusive) in the study eye.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

• ETDRS BCVA <20 letters in the study eye.
• Central subfield thickness > 400 μm or retinal pigment epithelium detachment thickness >400 μm on SD-OCT in the study eye.
• Subretinal hemorrhage, fibrosis or atrophy of >50% of the total lesion area and/or that involves the fovea on fundus fluorescein angiography and/or color fundus photography in the study eye.
• CNV due to causes other than AMD, such are ocular histoplasmosis, trauma, pathological myopia, angioid streaks, choroidal rupture, or uveitis, in the study eye.
• Any history of macular pathology unrelated to AMD affecting vision or contributing to the presence of intraretinal or subretinal fluid in the study eye.
