Proportion of Patients With no Fluid on OCT at Week 24
No primary outcome data can be found or provided.
Time frame: 24 week
Mean Change in Visual Acuity From Baseline to Week 16
Visual acuity was documented via BCVA at every study visit.
Time frame: Baseline to Week 16
Mean Change in OCT Central Retinal Lesion Thickness From Baseline to Week 16
OCT is performed on the Spectralis spectral domain OCT machine (Heidelberg Engineering, Germany). The OCT is centered on the fovea. The OCT examination will use the 19 scan mode on the Spectralis averaging at least 25 images per scan. Follow-up visits will use the follow-up protocol on the Spectralis , automatically placing follow-up scans in precisely the same location as the baseline scan.
Time frame: Baseline and week 16
Mean Change in OCT Greatest Height of Pigment Epithelial Detachment From Baseline to Week 16
OCT is performed on the Spectralis spectral domain OCT machine (Heidelberg Engineering, Germany). The OCT is centered on the fovea.
