Othera Pharmaceuticals' Othera (OT)-551 antioxidant eye drop has the potential for chronic treatment of the dry form of age-related macular degeneration. This pilot study of up to 10 eye drop tolerant participants with bilateral geographic atrophy is designed to characterize the effect of 0.45% concentration of OT-551 eye drops given 3 times a day on the progression of geographic atrophy area over a two-year period. Participants will have one eye randomized to receive the eye drop and the fellow eye will be observed only.

Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria 1. Participant must understand and sign the protocol's informed consent document (if the participant's vision is impaired to the point where it is not possible to read the informed consent document, the informed consent document will be read in its entirety to the participant). 2. Participant must be able to administer the eye drops or have a caretaker administer the eye drops. 3. Participant must have geographic atrophy (GA) present in both eyes compatible with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). GA is defined as one or more well-defined, usually more or less circular patches of partial or complete depigmentation of the RPE, typically with exposure of underlying choroidal blood vessels. Even if much of the RPE appears to be preserved and large choroidal vessels are not visible, a round-ish patch of RPE partial depigmentation may still be classified as early GA. The GA in each eye must be able to be photographed in their entirety and not contiguous with any areas of peripapillary atrophy, which can complicate area measurements. 4. Participant must have a steady fixation in the study eye in the foveal or parafoveal area and media clear enough for good quality photographs. 5. Female participants of child bearing potential (those who are not post-menopausal or surgically sterile) may participate if they are not lactating and if they agree to adequate birth control methods. 4.5 Exclusion Criteria 1. Participant is > 60 years of age (to minimize fundus changes from causes other than AMD). 2. Participant is in another investigational study and actively receiving study therapy. 3. Participant is unable to comply with study procedures or follow-up visits. 4. Participant has evidence of ocular disease other than AMD in either eye that may confound the outcome of the study (e.g., diabetic retinopathy, uveitis, etc.). 5. Participant has a chronic requirement (e.g., = four weeks at a time) for ocular medications for diseases, that in the judgment of the examining physician, are vision threatening or may affect the primary outcome (artificial tears are permitted). 6. Participant has evidence of pseudovitelliform macular degeneration that may confound the outcome of the study in either eye. 7. Participant with evidence of vitreo-retinal traction maculopathy that may confound the outcome of the study in either eye. 8. Participant has a history of laser, photodynamic therapy (PDT), intravitreal injection of any agent (e.g., anti-VEGF, triamcinolone, etc.), or any previous treatment for AMD other than AREDS or equivalent supplement formulation in the study eye. 9. Participant has had a vitrectomy, penetrating keratoplasty, trabeculectomy or trabeculoplasty. 10. Participant has undergone lens removal in the last three months. 11. Participant is on chemotherapy. 12. Participant is on ocular or systemic medications known to be toxic to the lens, retina, or optic nerve. 13. Participant with a history of malignancy that would compromise the 2-year study survival. 14. Participant with a history of ocular Herpes simplex virus. 15. Participant with a history of or demonstration of allergy to benzakonium chloride, a preservative agent used in the eye drop. |

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | The Change in Best-corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) From Baseline to Year 2 for All Participants. | Visual acuity was measured using the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) protocol. This acuity is measured as letters read on an ETDRS eye chart and the letters read equate to Snellen measurements. For example, if a participant reads between 84 and 88 letters the Snellen measurement is 20/20. | 2 years | |
Secondary | The Change in Geographic Atrophy (GA), as Measured on Fundus Autofluorescence Imaging Using a Confocal Scanning Ophthalmoscope (HRA FAF) From Baseline to Year 2. | Geographic Atrophy (GA), or the death of photoreceptors and surrounding cells in the retina, is a common condition in patients with Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). The death of these photoreceptors results in lesions that cause vision loss. The amount of GA is measured from images produced via a non-invasive technique called Fundus Autofluorescence Imaging, which uses a Confocal Scanning Ophthalmoscope to detect the naturally-fluorescing lipofuscin (the waste that is left behind by dead photoreceptors and digested by surrounding cells) that is prevalent at the border of the lesion. | 2 years | |
Secondary | The Change in GA, as Measured on Stereoscopic Color Fundus Photography (CFP) From Baseline to Year 2. | GA was also measured using Stereoscopic Color Fundus Photography (CFP), which produces color images of the inside of the eye. | 2 years | |
Secondary | The Change in Contrast Sensitivity as Measured by the Pelli-Robson Chart From Baseline to Year 2. | The Pelli-Robson Chart is comprised of 10 groups of 3 large letters with levels of contrast ranging from 100% (black against white) to 1% (very light gray against white). Each eye is assigned a score based on the contrast of the last group in which two or three letters were correctly read. A score of 2 log units, which represents a normal sensitivity contrast, indicates that the eye was able to detect two of the three letters with a contrast of 1 percent (contrast sensitivity = 100 percent or log 2). | 2 years | |
Secondary | Number of Participants With an Increase in the Number of Scotomatous Points Between Study and Fellow Eyes From Baseline to Year 2. | Scotomatous points are testing points on microperimetry examination that are centered on the macula and report a lack of retinal sensitivity within the range tested. | 2 years | |
Secondary | The Change in Total Drusen Area From Baseline to Year 2. | Baseline, 2 years |
