A Phase 1/2 Study of the Safety and Efficacy of BRX011 Oral Administration Once Daily in Subjects With Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Prior treatment

• Any ocular condition other than GA secondary to AMD that may require surgery or medical intervention during the study period.
  • 5\. History of vitrectomy surgery, submacular surgery, other surgical intervention for AMD, corneal transplant, glaucoma filtration surgery, or cataract surgery within 3 months prior to First Treatment Visit (Randomization).
  • 6\. History of intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies in the study eye at any time, history of intravitreal injection of any agent (e.g., triamcinolone) in the study eye within the last 3 months prior to study enrollment. A single intraoperative administration of a corticosteroid during cataract surgery at least 3 months prior to Screening is permitted.
  • 7\. History of laser therapy in the macular region in the study eye, prior treatment with photobiomodulation, external-beam radiation therapy or transpupillary thermotherapy in study eye.
  • 8\. Previous cell-based intraocular treatment in the study eye or previous expression vector-mediated intraocular treatments in either eye (i.e., gene therapy), any previous treatment with any deuterated molecules for eye diseases (e.g., deuterated vitamin A).
  • 9\. History of idiopathic or autoimmune-associated uveitis, ocular or intraocular conditions, and infectious or inflammatory ocular disease. Active uveitis and infectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis or endophthalmitis.
  • 11\. Active malignancy within the previous 12 months except for appropriately treated carcinoma in situ of cervix, resolved non-melanoma skin carcinoma, and prostate cancer with a Gleason score of less than or equal to (≤) 6, and a stable prostate-specific antigen for greater than or equal to (≥) 12 months.
  • 13\. Intake of omega-3 supplements (e.g., fish oil, cod liver oil, krill oil, edible algae oil, flax oil) or prescription omega-3 drugs (e.g., Lovaza® , Vascepa® , Epanova® ) in the past 4 weeks prior to First Treatment Visit (Randomization) and throughout the duration of the study.
  • 14\. Participation in an interventional clinical study within the past 30 days of Screening, or interventional GA studies within the past 5 months prior to Screening.
  • 15\. Treatment with SYFOVRE® or IZERVAY® within 3 months prior to First Treatment Visit (Randomization) and throughout participation in the trial. Patients who initiate any other GA treatment during the study must be discontinued.

Other illness

• GA secondary to a condition other than AMD such as Stargardt disease, cone rod dystrophy or toxic maculopathies like plaquenil maculopathy in either eye.
• Any history of documented or active CNV.

• Age ≥55 years
• Visual acuity score of BCVA ≥35 letters using ETDRS charts (≥20/200 Snellen equivalent). A Lower Luminance Deficit of \>5 letters.
• Clinical diagnosis of GA secondary to AMD. CNV in the fellow eye is permitted.
• Clarity of ocular media, adequate pupillary dilation, and fixation to permit the evaluation of the eye, as determined by the investigator
• Female subjects must be of non-child-bearing potential (WONCBP), defined as: Women who have had surgical sterilization (hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or bilateral salpingectomy) and/or women ≥ 60 years of age. Also included are women ≥ 55 and \< 60 years of age who fulfill at least one of the following: a cessation of menses for at least 12 months and a folliclestimulating hormone (FSH) test confirming non-childbearing potential and/or a cessation of menses for at least 24 months without FSH levels confirmed.
