Safety and Efficacy of Brimonidine Intravitreal Implant in Patients With Geographic Atrophy Due to AMD

Stage 1 is a patient-masked, dose-escalation, safety evaluation of brimonidine intravitreal
implant. Patients will receive implant in one eye and "sham" treatment (meaning no treatment)
in the fellow eye. Stage 2 will begin after 1 month of safety has been evaluated for Stage 1.
Stage 2 is a randomized, double-masked, dose-response, sham-controlled evaluation of the
safety and efficacy of brimonidine intravitreal implant in patients with geographic atrophy
from age-related macular degeneration. Patients will be followed for up to 2 years.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Geographic atrophy in both eyes due to age-related macular degeneration

- Visual acuity between 20/40 to 20/320

Exclusion Criteria:

- Known allergy to brimonidine

- Uncontrolled systemic disease or infection of the eye

- Recent eye surgery or injections in the eye

- Female patients who are pregnant, nursing or planning a pregnancy
