The aim of this study is to evaluate the characteristics of geographic atrophy (GA) lesions before treatment and the rate of change in GA area after treatment with IZERVAY (Avacincaptad Pegol Sodium) in Japanese patients with GA secondary to AMD, in order to clarify the real-world effectiveness, safety, and treatment patterns of IZERVAY in Japan.

Rate of change (%) in geographic atrophy (GA) area measured by fundus autofluorescence (FAF) imaging from baseline (initiation of IZERVAY treatment) to each observation time point (6 months, 1 year, 18 months, and 2 years)
(1)Change in BCVA (decimal and logMAR); (2)Change in OCT findings (CRT, ONL, EZ, RPE, subretinal/intraretinal fluid); (3)Estimation of pre-treatment GA progression rate; (4)Ocular characteristics of non-treated fellow eye; (5)Change in IOP and incidence of IOP elevation; (6)Incidence of new or worsening CNV; (7)Incidence of endophthalmitis; (8)Other adverse events; (9)Actual injection frequency and intervals; (10)Treatment continuation rate (6M/1Y/2Y); (11)Discontinuation rate and reasons; (12)Descriptive statistics of patient backgrounds; (13)GA lesion characteristics at baseline; (14)Physician survey on treatment initiation rationale, treatment burden, and clinical challenges

This is a multicenter, prospective and retrospective mixed observational study. Patients with geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who received intravitreal injections of IZERVAY (Avacincaptad Pegol Sodium) at participating institutions are enrolled. The retrospective observation period covers up to 2 years prior to IZERVAY initiation; the prospective observation period covers at least 1 year (up to 2 years) after IZERVAY initiation. No control group is set (non-comparative, descriptive study). No randomization is performed. Sampling is by consecutive convenience sampling: all eligible patients at each site are enrolled.
