In plain English
This study is testing a single injection into the eye of a treatment called 4D-150 for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (also called neovascular AMD, or nAMD). This is a condition where abnormal blood vessels grow under the part of the eye used for sharp, central vision. The sponsor is 4D Molecular Therapeutics.
Who can take part
- Aged 50 or older at the time of agreeing to take part
- Have wet AMD in the study eye, and either have not had anti-VEGF injections into the eye before, or have had no more than 4 of these injections, were diagnosed in the last 6 months, and the treatment helped
- Have active abnormal blood vessels in or near the centre of the retina, confirmed by eye scans
- Have already shown a good response to a drug called aflibercept, with stable vision
- Vision in the study eye between certain limits (roughly 20/320 to 20/32 on a standard eye chart)
- Central retinal thickness in the study eye of no more than 500 microns
Who may not be able to
- The abnormal blood vessels are caused by something other than AMD, or there is scarring, tissue wasting, or bleeding in the central part of the retina
- Have had a detached retina in the study eye
- Have eye inflammation now or in the past
- Have glaucoma or high pressure in the eye needing more than 2 eye-drop medicines
- Have had other eye treatments for the abnormal blood vessels, apart from the allowed anti-VEGF injections
- Had a serious illness or major surgery in the 28 days before the screening visit
- Have blood pressure that is not controlled
- Had a heart attack, acute coronary syndrome, coronary artery procedure, stroke, or mini-stroke in the last 6 months
- Have an autoimmune condition that could raise the risk of inflammation inside the eye (uveitis)
What taking part involves
- • A single injection of 4D-150 into the eye (into the vitreous, the gel inside the eye)
Time commitment: Not stated — ask the trial team about visit numbers, study length, and what taking part involves beyond the single eye injection.
