XELAFASLATIDE

Clinical trials investigating XELAFASLATIDE are studying whether it can slow disease progression in people with atrophic age-related macular degeneration. These studies mainly look at safety and efficacy, especially in patients with geographic atrophy. The trial data here focuses on a Phase 2 study comparing treatment with a sham injection.

Trial overview

The available trial data shows one interventional study of XELAFASLATIDE in atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is a form of eye disease that can damage central vision.[1]

The study is designed to evaluate whether XELAFASLATIDE can slow the progression of disease in patients with geographic atrophy (GA) associated with AMD.[1]

Who the trial is for

This trial targets people who have atrophic AMD, with the brief summary specifically naming patients with geographic atrophy linked to AMD.[1]

The source data does not list the full inclusion or exclusion rules, so we only know the main condition being studied from the trial record.[1]

What the study is testing

The study compares XELAFASLATIDE with a sham injection, which means a fake procedure used to help show whether the real treatment has an effect.[1]

The intervention is listed as an ophthalmic solution for intravitreal use, which means it is intended for use in the eye.[1]

The trial summary says the goal is to evaluate efficacy, meaning whether the treatment helps slow the disease compared with the sham procedure.[1]

Trial phase and design

This is a Phase 2 trial, which is a study stage that usually looks more closely at whether a treatment may work while continuing to monitor safety.[1]

The study type is interventional, meaning the researchers assign a treatment and compare outcomes between groups.[1]

What researchers are measuring

The main outcome is GA lesion area assessment.[1]

This means the researchers measure the size of the geographic atrophy area in the retina to see whether the disease is progressing more slowly.[1]

Study status and size

The trial status is listed as Authorised.[1]

The planned enrollment is 324 participants, which gives the study a moderate size for a Phase 2 trial.[1]

Only one trial record was provided, so the article is based on that single study of XELAFASLATIDE.[1]

Glossary

  • Atrophic age-related macular degeneration (AMD): An eye disease that affects the macula, the part of the retina needed for clear central vision. The atrophic form involves gradual loss of retinal tissue.
  • Geographic atrophy (GA): A later stage of atrophic AMD where areas of the retina become damaged and thin. Trials may measure the size of these areas to track disease progression.
  • Phase 2: A stage of clinical research that studies whether a treatment may work and continues to check safety in a larger group of people.
  • Interventional study: A trial in which researchers give a treatment or procedure and compare results between groups.
  • Sham injection: A fake or inactive procedure used in a trial to compare against the real treatment. It helps show whether the study treatment makes a difference.
  • Intravitreal use: Treatment given into the eye, specifically into the vitreous, the jelly-like fluid inside the eye.
  • Primary outcome: The main result the researchers plan to measure in the trial.
  • GA lesion area assessment: A measurement of the size of the geographic atrophy area in the eye. It helps researchers see whether the disease is getting worse more slowly.
  • Enrollment: The number of people planned to join the study.
  • Authorised: The study has been approved to start or continue according to the source data.
