Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Ocular and systemic safety and tolerability of a single intravitreal injection of UBX1325 evaluated by the incidence of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) and treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs)

    24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Plasma concentration of UBX1325 following a single intravitreal injection

    up to 24 hours post dose

Study Arms (1)

Treatment with UBX1325

EXPERIMENTAL

UBX1325, single intravitreal injection, ascending dose

Drug: UBX1325

Interventions

Investigational drug intravitreal injection

Treatment with UBX1325

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • nAMD patients who, in the opinion of the Investigator, are inadequately responding to or failed current treatment options.
  • Active choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with age-related macular degeneration as evidenced on FA and SD-OCT at Day 1, including presence of intraretinal or subretinal fluid.
  • BCVA in the study eye (most affected) of 70 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters or worse at screening and on Day 1.
  • Patients who have the capacity to give informed consent and who are willing and able to comply with all study-related procedures and assessments.

You may not qualify if:

  • Any ocular/intraocular/periocular infection or inflammation in either eye in the past 4 weeks prior to screening.
  • Subretinal hemorrhage with bleeding area ≥4 disc area in the study eye
  • Concomitant therapy with anti-VEGF therapies (e.g., Avastin®, Lucentis®, or Eylea®) or previous use of these agents in the study eye within approximately 28 days of study enrollment
  • Any retinovascular disease or retinal degeneration other than nAMD in the study eye.
  • History of systemic and intraocular steroid use for 6 months prior to Day 1. The use of intravitreal nonbiodegradable steroid implants (ex. Iluvien®, Yutiq®, Retisert®) is prohibited.
  • Significant media opacities, including cataract, which might interfere with VA, assessment of toxicity, or fundus imaging.
  • Any uncontrolled medical condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would preclude participation in this study.
