Filter by:This is an open-label, Phase I/II study of intravitreally administered 0.3mg ranibizumab in subjects with diabetic macular edema and lipid exudates in the central subfield.
Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a major cause of visual loss in patients with diabetes mellitus. The standard treatment is with focal/grid laser therapy. Topical nepafenac was used as an adjunct therapy for treatment of DME. The aim of this study is to compare the difference of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT) at 3 months post treatment between combination therapy of laser and topical nepafenac and laser monotherapy in patients with DME.
Diabetic macular edema refers to swelling (fluid accumulation) in the center of the retina. The retina is like the film of a camera and is located in the back of the eye. This condition can develop in diabetics where swelling results from leaking of fluid from the blood vessels of the eye, into the center of the retina, the macula. If left untreated, this can affect central vision. The current standard treatment for diabetic macular edema includes medications injected directly into the eye (intravitreal injections) and laser eye treatment. The drugs that are injected directly into the eye are known as anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (anti-VEGF) agents which help to reduce the leaking. However, response in patients to these anti-VEGF drugs can vary and examination of predictive factors is required. This particular study examines cellular factors called cytokines in patients receiving aflibercept, a type of anti-VEGF drug, in the hopes of detecting changes in cytokines that can predict treatment response amongst groups of patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether using furosemide following acetazolamide is effective in treating refractory edema associated with nephrotic syndrome.
The objectives of this study are to investigate the safety and effectiveness of EYLEA
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with stage IV inflammatory breast cancer or triple-negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic) or has come back (recurrent), and who have achieved clinical response or stable disease to prior chemotherapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This randomized, parallel controlled, clinical-trial aims to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of 577nm micropulse laser photocoagulation for diabetic macular edema compared with 532 subthreshold laser photocoagulation.
Phase 1, non-randomized, open label, noncomparative trial to study the effect of intravitreal injection of aflibercept on eyes with symptomatic macular edema from retinal artery macroaneurysms.
A Single Arm, Single Dose Study to Evaluate the Effect of intravitreal dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex®) on hard exudates of diabetic macular edema.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of intravitreal Eylea injections at a set interval, versus a variable dosing schedule (likely longer than one month), based on a specific individual's disease progression. There will be approximately 50 men and women at least 18 years of age, diagnosed with type 1 or type 2 diabetes, taking part in this study at 5 locations in the United States.
