The target eye must meet the following requirements: newly occurring or relapsed subfoveal and perifoveal active choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesions secondary to AMD; the best corrected visual acuity between 78-19 letters (including the boundary value, using Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts, equivalent to Snellen visual acuity of 20/32 to 20/400); no refractive media opacity or myosis affecting fundus examination;

4. The best corrected visual acuity of the subject's non-target eye≥19 letters (using ETDRS charts, equivalent to Snellen visual acuity of 20/400).

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Previously received anti-VEGF drug treatment in either eye within 3 months before screening (e.g., aflibercept, ranibizumab, bevacizumab, Conbercept, etc.);

2. Active eye infection in either eye within 1 months before screening (including but not limited to Blepharitis, Conjunctivitis infective, Keratitis, Scleritis, Endophthalmitis);

5. Previously received subconjunctival/intravitreal corticosteroids injection within 3 months (including subconjunctival/intravitreal long-acting implants within 6 months), or local ocular corticosteroids treatment in the target eye within 1 month before screening;

6. Previously received the following ophthalmic surgery such as verteporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT), macular translocation, glaucoma filtering, subfoveal laser photocoagulation, vitrectomy and transpupillary thermotherapy, and other submacular surgery or surgery used to treat age-related macular degeneration in the target eye;

7. Other ocular diseases other than wAMD that affect the central vision, such as dry AMD, venous occlusion, uveitis, diabetic retinopathy, vascular-like streaks, pathological myopia, retinal detachment, macular hole, etc. in the target eye;

8. Aphakia (excluding intraocular lenses) or rupture of the posterior lens capsule in the target eye [except for yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) laser posterior capsulotomy after intraocular lens implantation];

9. History of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment or macular hole retinal detachment (stage 3 or 4), with retinal detachment, retinal pigment epithelial tear, or retinal traction in the macular area and epiretinal disease in the macular area in the target eye;

10. Current use or may need to use systemic drugs that can cause crystal toxicity, such as psoralen, risedronate sodium, tamoxifen, etc.;

11. Allergy to fluorescein sodium or indocyanine green, protein products for treatment or diagnosis, and more than 2 drugs and/or non-drugs;

12. History of surgical operations (except for minimally invasive surgery that has healed) or currently unhealed wounds, moderate to severe ulcers, fractures, etc. within 1 month before screening;

13. Presence of infectious diseases that require oral, intramuscular or intravenous administration;

14. Presence of active diffuse intravascular coagulation or obvious bleeding tendency or abnormal coagulation function before screening (prothrombin time ≥ 3 seconds of upper limit of normal value, activated partial thromboplastin time ≥ 10 seconds of upper limit of normal value);

15. History of myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, unstable angina, coronary revascularization, New York College of Cardiology (NYHA) grade ≥ grade II cardiac insufficiency, severely unstable ventricular arrhythmia, and cerebrovascular accident (including transient ischemic attack) before screening;

16. Presence of systemic immune diseases (including but not limited to systemic lupus erythematosus, immune hemolytic anemia, hyperthyroidism);

17. Uncontrolled hypertension(defined assystolic blood pressure≥160 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure≥100 mmHg diastolic despite treatment with antihypertensive drugs;

18. Diabetes with uncontrolled blood glucose (defined as fasting blood glucose≥7.0 mmol/L);

19. Any uncontrollable clinical problems (including but not limited to serious mental, neurological, respiratory and other system diseases, as well as malignant tumors);

20. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and/or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) higher than 1.5 times the laboratory upper limit of normal (ULN) and/or blood creatinine is higher than ULN and the investigator judges that the abnormality has clinical significance;

21. Concurrent with hepatitis B (positive hepatitis B virus surface antigen), hepatitis C (positive hepatitis C virus antibody), AIDS (positive human immunodeficiency virus antibody) or syphilis (positive syphilis antibody);

22. Pregnant and lactating women;

23. Refuse to take effective contraceptive measures during childbearing age throughout the study period;

24. Participated in any drug (excluding vitamins and minerals) and medical device clinical trials within 3 months before screening (if the drug has a long half-life and its 5 half-life time is greater than 3 months, then choose the 5 half-life time);

25. Any other situations that investigator thinks the subject is inappropriate to participate in this study.
