About this trial

AMD is a leading cause of blindness in individuals over 50 years old, with dry AMD being the most common form. Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced stage of dry AMD characterized by progressive retinal cell degeneration. The primary objectives of the study are to assess the safety, tolerability, and evidence of activity of SGLT2 inhibitors in subjects with Geographic Atrophy associated with AMD.
