ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryVisual Acuity (VA) of the Better-seeing Eye at the Participant's Fifth Birthday Visit - Comparison Between Treatment Armsat the participant's fifth birthday visit (maximum 5 years and 4 months post core baseline visit)
The VA assessment at the child's 5th birthday visit was performed using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) methodology. VA measurements were taken in a sitting position at an initial test distance of 3 meters using Lea Symbols charts. Scores represented the number of optotypes (Lea symbols) the participant identified and ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better visual acuity. VA was tested in each eye, using the child's current refractive index. The better-seeing eye was defined as the eye with the higher ETDRS score at the 5th birthday visit. If both eyes had the same ETDRS score, then the right eye was assigned as the better-seeing eye.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Ocular Adverse Events (AEs) Regardless of Study Treatment or Procedure Relationship by Preferred Termthroughout the study, approximately 5 yearsNumber of participants with ocular AEs starting during the core study and ongoing at extension baseline, or starting on/after extension baseline were reported.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Non-ocular Adverse Events (AEs) Regardless of Study Treatment or Procedure Relationship (Greater Than or Equal to 3% in Any Arm) by Preferred Termthroughout the study, approximately 5 yearsNumber of participants with non-ocular adverse events regardless of study treatment or procedure relationship (greater than or equal to 3% in any arm) by preferred term were reported.
SecondaryVisual Acuity (VA) of the Worse-seeing Eye at the Participant's Fifth Birthday Visit - Comparison Between Treatment Armsat the participant's fifth birthday visit (maximum 5 years and 4 months post core baseline visit)
The VA assessment at the child's 5th birthday visit was performed using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) methodology. VA measurements were taken in a sitting position at an initial test distance of 3 meters using Lea Symbols charts. Scores represented the number of optotypes (Lea symbols) the participant identified and ranged from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better visual acuity. VA was tested in each eye, using the child's current refractive index. The worse-seeing eye was the eye with a lower ETDRS score at the 5th birthday visit. If both eyes had the same ETDRS score, then the left eye was assigned as the worse-seeing eye.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of Active Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) at 40 Weeks Post Core Baseline Visitat 40 weeks post core baseline visit
The absence of active ROP in both eyes is defined by the absence of all of the following features: (1) Vessel dilatation of plus disease in at least 2 quardrants (some persisting tortuosity is allowed), (2) Extra-retina vessels extending from the retina into the vitreous and judged to be a sign of active ROP disease.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of Active Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) at 52 Weeks Post Core Baseline Visitat 52 weeks post core baseline visit
The absence of active ROP in both eyes is defined by the absence of all of the following features: (1) Vessel dilatation of plus disease in at least 2 quardrants (some persisting tortuosity is allowed), (2) Extra-retina vessels extending from the retina into the vitreous and judged to be a sign of active ROP disease.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of All Ocular Structural Abnormalities at or Before 40 Weeks Post Baseline Visitat or before 40 weeks post baseline visit
The absence of all ocular structural abnormalities is defined by the absence of all of the following fundus features in both eyes at or before the given time point: (1) Substantial temporal retinal vessel dragging causing abnormal structural features/macular Ectopia, (2) Retrolental membrane obscuring the view of the posterior pole, (3) Posterior retinal fold involving the macula, (4) Retinal detachment involving the macula
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of All Ocular Structural Abnormalities at or Before the Participant's Fifth Birthday Visitat or before the participant's fifth birthday visit (up to maximum 5 years and 4 months post core baseline visit)
The absence of all ocular structural abnormalities is defined by the absence of all of the following fundus features in both eyes at or before the given time point: (1) Substantial temporal retinal vessel dragging causing abnormal structural features/macular Ectopia, (2) Retrolental membrane obscuring the view of the posterior pole, (3) Posterior retinal fold involving the macula, (4) Retinal detachment involving the macula
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of Individual Ocular Structural Abnormalities at or Before 40 Weeks Post Baseline Visitat or before 40 weeks post baseline visit
Number of participants with absence of each structural abnormality in both eyes at or before the given time point: (1) Substantial temporal retinal vessel dragging causing abnormal structural features/macular Ectopia, (2) Retrolental membrane obscuring the view of the posterior pole, (3) Posterior retinal fold involving the macula, (4) Retinal detachment involving the macula, (5) Retinal detachment not involving the macula, (6) Pre-retinal fibrosis
SecondaryNumber of Participants With Absence of Individual Ocular Structural Abnormalities at or Before the Participant's Fifth Birthday Visitat or before the participant's fifth birthday visit (up to maximum 5 years and 4 months post core baseline visit)
Number of participants with absence of each structural abnormality in both eyes at or before the given time point: (1) Substantial temporal retinal vessel dragging causing abnormal structural features/macular Ectopia, (2) Retrolental membrane obscuring the view of the posterior pole, (3) Posterior retinal fold involving the macula, (4) Retinal detachment involving the macula, (5) Retinal detachment not involving the macula, (6) Pre-retinal fibrosis, (7) Optic disc pallor, (8) Optic disc swelling, (9) Pigmentary disturbance in the macula, (10) Atrophic changes in the macula
