E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 10 mg lampalizumab intravitreal injections of administered every 4 weeks (Q4W) or every 6 weeks (Q6W) in patients compared with sham control assessed by change in the geographic atrophy (GA) area from baseline as measured by fundus autofluorescence (FAF). |
