From the LA Times:

Steven Schwartz of UCLA's Jules Stein Eye Institute said Lucentis looked promising but it was not fair to compare it with Macugen based on the data released Monday.

Schwartz said Macugen was tested in patients with aggressive age-related macular degeneration but Lucentis was not, and that could at least partially explain the different results.

Genentech said patients with the aggressive form of age-related macular degeneration were participating in a separate clinical trial scheduled to end in the fourth quarter of this year. That trial is a head-to-head study of Lucentis against Visudyne, a drug that is used with lasers to slow the disease.
