Who cannot take part
Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

- Previous focal laser photocoagulation used for AMD treatment in the study eye.

- Uncontrolled ocular hypertension or glaucoma in the study eye (defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) \>25 mm of mercury (mmHg) or a cup to disc ratio \>=0.8, despite treatment with 2 or more classes of antiglaucoma medication) and any such condition which the Investigator feels may require a glaucoma-filtering surgery while in the study.
- Treatment with Visudyne® in the fellow eye \<7 days prior to the Screening Visit.
- Prior participation in a clinical trial involving investigational anti-angiogenic drugs administered in either eye or systemically within 8 weeks prior to the Screening Visit.
- Prior participation in a clinical trial involving investigational ocular gene therapy trial for either eye.
- Myocardial infarction within 6 months prior to screening or New York Hospital Association (NYHA) Class III or IV heart failure, uncontrolled atrial fibrillation, uncontrolled angina, cardiomyopathy, ventricular arrhythmias or other cardiac conditions which, in the judgment of the investigator, could make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.
- Previous use of any systemic anti-VEGF agents or intraocular brolucizumab in the study eye.
- Use of oral corticosteroids (prednisone \>10 mg/day or equivalent) within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit.
- Excluding certain skin cancers (specifically, basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma), any malignancy receiving treatment, or in remission less than 5 years prior to study entry.
- Previous participation in any ocular or non-ocular (systemic) disease studies of investigational drugs within 30 days prior to the Screening Visit (excluding vitamins and minerals).
- Use of anti-mitotic or anti-metabolite therapy within 30 days or 5 elimination half-lives of the Screening Visit, whichever is longer.
- Requirement for continuous use of any protocol-prohibited medications or treatments.
Other illness
- History of pars plana vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, or other surgical intervention for AMD in the study eye.
- Subretinal hemorrhage in the subfoveal/juxtafoveal location and hemorrhage greater than 1 disc are (1.8 mm\^2) if located less than 200 mcm from the foveal center in the study eye at either the Screening Visit or Day 1.
- History of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment or treatment for retinal detachment or macular hole (stage 3 or 4) in the study eye.
- History of glaucoma-filtering surgery, tube shunts, or microinvasive glaucoma surgery in the study eye.
- History of corneal transplant in the study eye.
- History of idiopathic or autoimmune-associated uveitis in either eye.
- Presence of any other systemic or ocular condition which, in the judgment of the investigator, could make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.
- Serious non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
- Current treatment for any active systemic infection.
- History of allergy to fluorescein, not amenable to treatment.
- Historical or active diagnosis of any medical or psychological condition that could interfere with the ability of the subject to give informed consent, or to comply with study or follow-up procedures.
- Intolerance, contraindication, or hypersensitivity to topical anesthetics, dyes, povidone iodine, mydriatic medications, or any of the ingredients of the EYP-1901 insert.
Lab values
- Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) greater than 7% at the Screening Visit.
