SIGLEC Trial Summary

This trial looks at the safety, effectiveness, and how a medication affects the body when used to treat age-related macular degeneration.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with a specific eye condition called Geographic Atrophy (GA) due to Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Participants must have certain levels of vision clarity, as measured by an eye chart. They should not have the wet form of AMD or other eye conditions that might need treatment during the study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests multiple doses of AVD-104, given through injections into the eye, to see if it's safe and effective for treating GA in AMD patients. Some participants will receive a sham injection instead to serve as a comparison group.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort at the injection site, inflammation inside the eye, changes in vision, or possible allergic reactions. The full range of side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.

SIGLEC Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Part 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Participants will receive a single intravitreal injection of AVD-104 at one of 4 escalating doses. All participants will be followed up for safety until Month 3. Participants from Part 1 will be offered the opportunity to receive monthly injections of high dose AVD-104 once the 6-month timepoint has been reached for 50% of the participants in Part 2. These participants will be followed for safety only.
Group II: Part 2: AvacincaptadActive Control1 Intervention
100 participants will be randomized to receive monthly injections of avacincaptad (2 mg. intravitreal)
Group III: Part 2: High dose AVD-104Active Control1 Intervention
100 participants will be randomized and treated with bimonthly intravitreal injections of high-dose AVD-104 for the first 12 months. They will continue bimonthly injections for months 13-24.
Group IV: Part 2: Low dose AVD-104Active Control1 Intervention
100 participants will be randomized and treated with monthly intravitreal injections of low dose AVD-104 for 24 months.
