The study involved 1098 patients > 50 years of age who were treated with 0.5 or 2.0 mg of ranibizumab monthly x 12 mos or 0.5 or 2.0 mg of ranibizumab prn after 3 doses. The mean change in baseline BCVA was +10.1, + 8.2, +9.2, and +8.6 letters, respectively. The percentage of patients who increased > 15 letters from baseline was 34.5%, 30.2%, 36.1%, and 33.0%, respectively.
