Richmond Hill, New YorkAges 50 years+ - NCT07614776RecruitingPhase 3
New Eye Injection Treatment for Age-Related Macular Degeneration
This study tests whether a new eye injection called ABP 938 works as well as or better than the current standard treatment (Eylea) for wet age-related macular degeneration—a condition that causes vision loss in the center of your sight. You would receive injections into your eye every month for a year.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 50 years+ - NCT06487039RecruitingPhase 2
EB-203 for wet age-related macular degeneration
This trial tests a new medicine called EB-203 for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a condition that causes blurry vision. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and can help improve or stabilize vision.
BusanAges 50 years+ - NCT07547228RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
PRL3-zumab for advanced age-related macular degeneration
This study tests a new injectable medicine called PRL3-zumab for patients with advanced wet macular degeneration (nAMD) whose condition hasn't improved enough with standard treatments. The goal is to see if this new approach can help preserve or improve vision in people who have already tried at least two other eye injections.
SingaporeAges 18 years+ - NCT07423429Recruiting
Switching to Aflibercept 8 mg for wet AMD
This trial tests if switching to a higher dose of aflibercept (Eylea) can help people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who need frequent eye injections. If you've been on other anti-VEGF injections for over a year and still need them more often than every 12 weeks, this study might offer a new option.
Nantes, NantesAges 18 years+ - NCT07630649RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration in second eye
This study tests a one-time gene therapy injection (ixoberogene soroparvovec) in the second eye of people with wet age-related macular degeneration who have already responded well to anti-VEGF injections. The goal is to see if this gene therapy can help preserve or improve vision in that eye.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT04339764RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
iPS cell eye transplant for dry macular degeneration

Baltimore, MarylandAges 55–95 - NCT04504123RecruitingPhase 2
Doxycycline eye treatment for persistent wet macular degeneration fluid
This trial tests whether an “MMP-9 inhibitor” medicine given as doxycycline (a tetracycline-type antibiotic) can reduce persistent leaking and fluid in wet age-related macular degeneration. It may help people whose wet AMD is not fully controlled even after several anti-VEGF injections.
Iowa City, IowaAges 50–99 - NCT04796545Recruiting
Implant study for late macular degeneration with cataracts
This post-market study looks at how well a telescope-like eye implant (NG SI IMT 3X) works for people with very advanced age-related macular degeneration that affects the center of vision, plus cataracts. The implant is placed in one eye, and you’ll get training to learn how to use it after surgery.
BrusselsAges 55 years+ - NCT05672121RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy safety study for neovascular macular degeneration
This trial tests a new gene therapy drug (KH631) to see if it is safe and tolerated in people with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). It may help your retina problems, but the early goal is mainly to learn about side effects and how the treatment behaves in the eye.
BeijingAges 50–85 - NCT05803785RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of an injection for wet macular degeneration
This Phase 1 trial tests whether BBC1501, an injection given into the eye, is safe for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). It mainly looks at side effects and whether the study injections can be given safely in patients who still have active disease despite prior anti-VEGF treatments.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 50 years+ - NCT06132035RecruitingPhase 1
CG-P5 eye drops for wet macular degeneration
This study tests a new eye drop (CG-P5) for people with wet age-related macular degeneration. It aims to see if the drops are safe and may help improve vision.
Manchester, ConnecticutAges 50 years+ - NCT06458595RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Gene therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (nAMD)
This trial tests a gene therapy (KH658) as a one-time treatment for wet macular degeneration. It's for people whose condition has been stabilized with anti-VEGF injections, and aims to see if it is safe and can reduce the need for frequent eye injections.
TianjinAges 50–85 - NCT06511700Enrolling by invitation
Nurse-led eye injections: a new care approach
This trial tests whether specially trained nurses can safely give eye injections instead of doctors. It may make treatment quicker and easier for people who need regular injections for eye conditions.
Sabadell, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07007065RecruitingPhase 3
Study of a gene therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy injection for wet AMD that may reduce the need for regular eye injections. It is for people who have already responded to anti-VEGF injections but want a longer-lasting treatment.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT05562947RecruitingPhase 3
Ranibizumab port implant for wet macular degeneration in Chinese adults
This Phase 3 study tests whether a small eye implant that delivers medicine on a schedule (the port delivery system) with ranibizumab works better and safely in people with wet age-related macular degeneration. It’s designed for patients who have already been treated recently with anti-VEGF injections and need continued control.
BeijingAges 50 years+ - NCT04627428RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem-cell–made eye tissue transplant for dry macular degeneration
