Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Subjects With Positive LUCENTIS® Retreatment Status at Day 84
Day 84

For subjects who completed the Day 84 visit, retreatment need status was positive if LUCENTIS® retreatment (injection) was required before or at Day 84, including requiring retreatment at or before the Day 84 visit with the actual retreatment performed at a later visit.

Number of Subjects With a Serious Adverse Event That, in the Opinion of the Investigator, is Related to the Study Drug, Part 1
From time of consent until 30 days after stopping the trial/study drug

A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any event which is fatal or life-threatening, which requires or prolongs hospitalization, which is significantly or permanently disabling or incapacitating, which constitutes a congenital anomaly or a birth defect, or which is medically significant, may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

Number of Subjects With a Serious Adverse Event That, in the Opinion of the Investigator, is Related to the Study Drug, Part 2
From time of consent until 30 days after stopping the trial/study drug

A serious adverse event (SAE) was defined as any event which is fatal or life-threatening, which requires or prolongs hospitalization, which is significantly or permanently disabling or incapacitating, which constitutes a congenital anomaly or a birth defect, or which is medically significant, may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed above.

Number of Subjects Experiencing a Non-serious Adverse Event, Part I
From time of consent until 30 days after stopping the trial/study drug

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who is administered a study treatment regardless of whether or not the event has a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE, therefore, could be any unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the study treatment, whether or not related to the treatment.

Number of Subjects Experiencing a Non-serious Adverse Event, Part 2

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a subject who is administered a study treatment regardless of whether or not the event has a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE, therefore, could be any unfavorable or unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the study treatment, whether or not related to the treatment.

Frequently asked questions about LHA510

What is LHA510 used for?

LHA510 is an investigational small molecule being developed for exudative age-related macular degeneration and age-related macular degeneration. It is being studied as a potential maintenance therapy for patients with wet age-related macular degeneration. The drug is in clinical development and is not approved by the FDA.

How does LHA510 work?

LHA510 is a small molecule designed to target pathways involved in age-related macular degeneration. Its exact molecular target has not been disclosed in available information. It is being investigated for its ability to treat exudative AMD, potentially as a maintenance therapy.

Who is developing LHA510?

LHA510 is being developed by Alcon Inc., a company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker ALC. Alcon is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LHA510 in patients with age-related macular degeneration.

What phase is LHA510 in?

LHA510 has completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials. The Phase 1 trial was a first-in-human study, and the Phase 2 trial was a proof-of-concept study as a maintenance therapy for wet AMD. The drug is investigational and not yet approved.

What clinical trials is LHA510 in?

LHA510 has been studied in two completed trials. NCT02076919 was a Phase 1 first-in-human study in elderly subjects and AMD patients. NCT02355028 was a Phase 2 proof-of-concept study as a maintenance therapy for wet AMD in the United States.

Is LHA510 the same as other drugs for AMD?

LHA510 is a distinct investigational small molecule developed by Alcon. It is not known to be the same as other marketed AMD treatments. Its mechanism and chemical structure are not publicly detailed, and it is being studied as a potential oral or topical therapy.
