Pharmacological Therapy for Macular Degeneration Study Group (1997). Interferon alpha-IIA is ineffective for patients with choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration. Results of a prospective randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial. Archives of Ophthalmology, 115, 865-872.
The ARMD data arise from a randomized multi-center clinical trial comparing an experimental treatment (interferon-alpha) versus placebo for patients diagnosed with ARMD.
