Summary
This trial compares two drugs, ABP 938 and Aflibercept, for treating patients with a serious eye condition called neovascular age-related macular degeneration. The drugs are injected into the eye to stop harmful blood vessel growth and protect vision. Aflibercept is designed to target specific growth factors involved in this condition.

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: ABP 938-Treatment Group AExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Subjects will receive 2 mg (0.05 mL) of ABP 938 by intravitreal (IVT) injection every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses (ie, baseline/day 1, week 4, and week 8) and every 8 weeks from week 16 until week 48.
Group II: ABP 938-Treatment group B2Active Control2 Interventions
Subjects will receive 2 mg (0.05 mL) of aflibercept (Treatment Group B) by IVT injection every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses (ie, baseline/day 1, week 4, and week 8). Subjects will be re-randomized to receive ABP 938 by IVT injection every 8 weeks from week 16 until week 48
Group III: Aflibercept-Treatment Group B1Active Control1 Intervention
Subjects will receive 2 mg (0.05 mL) of aflibercept (Treatment Group B) by IVT injection every 4 weeks for the first 3 doses (ie, baseline/day 1, week 4, and week 8). Subjects will be re-randomized to receive aflibercept by IVT injection every 8 weeks from week 16 until week 48.
