The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy, safety and tolerability of multiple doses of RN6G in subjects with Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-related Macular Degeneration.
The trial was terminated early on April 12, 2013 due to an organizational decision, which was not based on safety or efficacy concerns. Subjects who were already enrolled into the study were followed.

Mean Reduction (in Study Eye) in Rate of Growth of Geographic Atrophy (GA) at Day 309
GA is the advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The reduction in GA area of the study eye was based on Fundus Autofluorescence (FAF) at 30 days post last dose administration (Day 309).
Time frame: Baseline and Day 309
Mean Reduction (in Study Eye) in Rate of Growth of GA at Day 449 (End of Study)
GA is the advanced form of dry AMD. The reduction in GA area in the study eye was based on FAF at end of study (Day 449).

Mean Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) at 9, 12, 15 Months and End of Study
BCVA is measured using an eye chart and is reported as the number of letters read correctly (ranging from 0 to 100 letters) in the study eye. The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity).
Time frame: Baseline, Month 9, Month 12, Month 15, and End of Study

Change From Baseline in Contrast Sensitivity at 9, 12, 15 Months and End of Study
Contrast sensitivity was measured using the Pelli-Robson chart at 1 meter.

An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. Seriousness of an AE was assessed under the criteria of serious adverse event (SAE). An SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

Number of Participants With Treatment-Related TEAEs
An AE was an untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to causal relationship. An investigator's relationship assessment is the determination of whether there exists a reasonable possibility that the investigational product caused or contributed to an AE.
