Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Mean Change From Baseline in Best-corrected Visual Acuity of the Study Eye at Month 12
Baseline to Month 12

Visual acuity (VA) was assessed in both eyes at each study visit using best correction determined from protocol refraction. VA measurements were taken in a sitting position using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)-like visual acuity testing charts at an initial testing distance of 4 meters.

Secondary Endpoints

Mean Change From Baseline in the Total Lesion Area of the Study Eye at Month 12
Baseline to Month 12
Mean Change From Baseline in Retinal Thickness at the Central Point of the Study Eye at Month 12

NameTypeDescription
Ranibizumab 0.3 mg - 3 times monthly, then quarterlyDRUGSubjects received intravitreal injections (in the study eye) of ranibizumab 0.3 mg over a duration of 12 months. They were treated monthly for 3 consecutive months and then quarterly for the remainder of the study. On those months when ranibizumab was not administered, patients received a sham injection to preserve the masking of the treatment arms.
