Summary
This trial aims to see if a drug called elamipretide is effective, safe, and well-tolerated for people with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). They want to
Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Participants should have a specific level of vision loss and clear enough eyes for imaging. They must be able to take daily injections or have someone who can administer them. Those with certain other eye conditions or treatments are excluded.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effectiveness and safety of elamipretide, administered through daily shots, against a placebo in slowing down photoreceptor loss in the retina due to dry AMD. The comparison will help determine if elamipretide can benefit patients with this condition.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed here, common ones from subcutaneous injections may include pain at the injection site, swelling, redness, bruising, itching and potential allergic reactions.
