Inclusion criteria
. Subjects ≥ 50 and ≤ 89 years of age with a diagnosis of active subfoveal CNV secondary to wAMD in the Study Eye
. BCVA between 20/40 and 20/400 in the Study Eye, with BCVA decrement primarily attributable to wAMD
. Administration of at least 3 anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) injections in the study eye in the past 6 months for clinically active wAMD, the most recent of which was within 1 month prior to Screening Day -14 (Visit 1).
. Must be pseudo phakic (status post cataract surgery) in the Study Eye
. Female and Male reproductive status: Female subjects must be either: (1) of non-childbearing potential; or (2) of childbearing potential and using an acceptable method of birth control with a negative pregnancy test. Male subjects agree to refrain from sperm donations and practice contraception to avoid any pregnancy for 3 months after administration of NG101.
. Normal blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR), or near normal BP and HR not considered clinically significant (NCS) by the Investigator at the Screening Day -14 (Visit 1) and Day -7 (Visit 2)
. Willing and able to provide written, signed informed consent after the nature of the study has been explained and prior to the performance of any study-related procedures
. Willingness and ability to comply with schedule for follow-up visits and postoperative evaluations
Exclusion criteria
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

Adverse Events
Timeframe: From Day 0 (pre-treatment) through Week 24
. CNV or macular edema in the Study Eye secondary to any causes other than AMD
. Any condition preventing visual acuity improvement in the Study Eye, e.g., fibrosis, atrophy, or retinal pigment epithelial tear involving the center of the macula
. Any ophthalmic condition that precludes adequate ophthalmic examination or requires treatment
. Retinal detachment or history of retinal detachment in the Study Eye
. Active uncontrolled glaucoma with intraocular pressure (IOP) ≥ 30 mmHg despite treatment with more than 2 glaucoma medications, advanced glaucoma with cup-to-disc ratio of ≥ 0.9, visual field defects secondary to glaucoma that involve the macula, and/or optic atrophy from glaucoma
. History of intravitreal therapy in the Study Eye, such as intravitreal steroid injection or an investigational product, other than anti-VEGF therapy, in the 6 months prior to Screening
. History of vitrectomy, trabeculectomy, glaucoma tube-shunt procedure, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) device, or other filtration surgery in the Study Eye
. Photodynamic therapy or retinal laser for the treatment of wAMD within the last 6 months
