  1. FAS. Data are mean ± SD unless otherwise stated; percentages may not add up to 100 due to rounding. ETDRS Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study, FAS full analysis set (all patients receiving ≥1 dose of study drug plus ≥1 post-baseline assessment), MNV macular neovascularisation, nAMD neovascular age-related macular degeneration.
  2. aData on race were collected in Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, Portugal, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Spain, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom only; for France, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden, data on race were not collected according to local law/regulations.
  3. bCombination of MNV Type 1 and Type 2.
  4. cVisual outcomes were assessed during routine clinical practice and reported in ETDRS letter scores; where ETDRS charts were unavailable, approximate Snellen scores were converted to ETDRS letter scores.
  5. dCentral retinal thickness was determined based on physician discretion using optical coherence tomography with the instrument available at each study site.
