Filter by:The purpose of the study is to determine whether concentrations of FOV2304 (high dose or low dose) administered in the eye are more effective than placebo in treating patients with diabetic macular edema, following 12 weeks of treatment.
This study will describe the long-term safety and effectiveness, treatment patterns,and patient reported quality of life associated with ranibizumab treatment in routine clinical practice for all approved indication included in the local product label.
The investigators hypothesize that a combination treatment with Avastin and Ozurdex will result in a more rapid improvement of visual acuity compared to the use of Avastin alone.
This study will assess the safety and utility of the new inserter for the administration of ILUVIEN in subjects with diabetic macular edema.
This study is designed to explore a more individualized treatment regime based on achievement of disease stability to define a personal optimal treatment interval with ranibizumab in patients with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema.
This is an open-label, Phase I/II study of intravitreally administered ranibizumab either 0.5-mg and/or 2.0-mg in subjects with clinical, angiographic, and ocular coherence tomography (OCT) evidence of diabetic retinopathy with associated diabetic macular edema following bevacizumab therapy. Thirty patients will be enrolled in this study. Consented, enrolled subjects will receive multiple open-label intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab administered every 30 days (±7 days) for 3 injections during the mandatory treatment phase (Day 0, Month 1, and Month 2). Subjects with complete resolution of diabetic macular edema after 3 intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab will be treated as necessary with 0.5 mg ranibizumab to treat recurrent macular edema for an additional 9 months (12 months from Day 0). The intent is to administer additional ranibizumab treatment if there is evidence of disease activity documented on OCT (e.g., intra-retinal fluid, subretinal fluid and/or cystic changes). Subjects with residual diabetic macular edema following 3 intravitreal injections of 0.5 mg ranibizumab will be receive 3 intravitreal injections of 2.0 mg ranibizumab administered every 30 days (±7 days) for 3 injections at the Month 3, Month 4, and Month 5 study visits. Beginning at the Month 6 study visit, subjects with complete resolution of diabetic macular edema following 3 intravitreal injections of 2.0 mg ranibizumab will treated as necessary with 2.0 mg ranibizumab injections only to treat recurrent macular edema for an additional 6 months (12 months from Day 0). Subjects with residual diabetic macular edema following 3 consecutive intravitreal injections of 2.0 mg ranibizumab will be treated as necessary with 2.0 mg ranibizumab to treat persistent or recurrent macular edema for an additional 6 months (12 months from Day 0). Focal photocoagulation or intravitreal triamcinolone may be administered at the physician's discretion as an adjunct to ranibizumab injections beginning at Month 6 through Month 12 of the study. All subjects will make monthly visits for 12 months for evaluation of safety and efficacy. All subjects will have their first injection of ranibizumab on Day 0 and undergo a safety visit one week (±2 days) after the first injection. At subsequent visits, the subject will have a safety evaluation at the monthly scheduled follow-up visit prior to any intravitreal injection. Subjects will be contacted by the site personnel 1-2 days after each injection to elicit reports of decreased vision or pain or unusual new ocular symptoms in the study eye.
The purpose of the study is to determine where a sustained steroid delivery system (Ozurdex,Allergan) is safe and effective to treat Cystoid Macular Edema in diabetic patients after Cataract Surgery
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ciliary body thickness increased in the presence of diabetic macular edema and whether it changed after pars plana vitrectomy.
Treatment with Ranibizumab of the residual diabetic edema in patients with failed response to Bevacizumab.
The study will investigate changes in the structure and function of blood vessels in the front and back of the eye following laser and anti-VEGF treatments for sight-threatening diabetic eye disease. Sixty four volunteers will be recruited, including age-matched control subjects and diabetic patients who require conventional or contemporary treatment for pre-existing diabetic eye disease. Volunteers will be assessed before and after treatment using state-of-the-art techniques to measure vision, the rate of blood flow and structure at the front and back of the eye and the effectiveness of blood flow delivery. Changes following treatment in these novel, non-invasive techniques will be quantified and described. We anticipate that conventional and new / developing treatments will lead to narrowing of the vessels and consequent reduction of blood flow at the back and front of the eye. There will be a strong relationship between structural changes of the eye and functional changes of blood vessels at the front and back of the eye. The results of this study will improve our understanding of the impact of the various treatments on the entire eye. The research will also ensure an improved understanding of the mechanisms of action of the various treatments and will provide insight of reasons for good or poor outcomes, based upon specific changes in structure and blood flow.
