Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Efficacy

To determine the percentage of patients with resolution of subretinal hyperreflective material (SHRM) at week 16

Secondary objectives 13

  1. To determine the percentage of patients with resolution of SHRM at weeks 4, 12, 20, 24 and 48
  2. To determine the percentage of patients with conversion of type 2 MNV to type 1 MNV and mixed (type 1 and 2) to type 1
  3. To determine the percentage of fibrosis, fibrin, subretinal hemorrhage and fibrovascular tissue
  4. To measure the maximum diameter and height of SHRM
  5. To assess the change in lesion size (area) (related to fibrovascular tissue)
  6. To record the presence or absence of intraretinal fluid and subretinal fluid
  7. To record the presence of hyper-reflective dots in the inner (1 mm) and outer (3 mm) layers
  8. To assess whether there is a change in quality of life after administration of Faricimab
  9. To determine the durability of the drug in the patient
  10. To determine whether a gain in visual acuity (BCVA) occurs
  11. To record retinal sensitivity
  12. To determine the change in central macular thickness
  13. To evaluate safety
