Filter by:This study will evaluate and compare two individualized ranibizumab treatment regimens in patients with neovascular (wet) AMD aiming to achieve and to maintain a maximum visual function benefit, while aiming to avoid unnecessary intravitreal injections. The results will be used to generate further recommendations on functional and anatomical monitoring of the disease and timing of treatment administration for patients with neovascular AMD. In this context, the study will investigate the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to aid retreatment decisions with ranibizumab.
Background: - Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease that blurs the sharp vision needed for activities such as reading, sewing, and driving. It affects the macula, the center of the retina at the back of the eye, which allows a person to see fine detail. Researchers want to collect medical histories, eye exam data, and genetic information that may be associated with AMD. They want to compare this information with information collected from people without AMD. Objectives: - To collect medical information and gene samples for researchers studying AMD. Eligibility: - Individuals between and 60 and 90 years of age who have AMD in at least one eye. - Individuals between and 60 and 90 years of age who have no AMD in either eye. Design: - This study will involve one study visit. This study visit will last 6 to 8 hours. - Participants will have the following tests and exams as part of their study visit: - Full physical exam and medical history - Full eye examination - Laser scan of the eye - Retina function test - Vision sensitivity test - Optional blood sample (for genetic study) - No treatment will be provided as part of this study.
The study evaluated the efficacy and safety of two different dosing regimens of ranibizumab (either monthly injections or injections as-needed based on the stability of a patient's vision) in Chinese patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) . This study was to provide long-term safety data in the treatment of Chinese patients with wet AMD.
To evaluate the visual outcome and number of injections required during an optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided treat and extend regimen with intravitreal aflibercept for treatment of subfoveal neovascular age-related macular degeneration (NVAMD).
POLARIS : A non-interventional study in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) with central involvement to assess the effectiveness of existing anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment regimens.
The objective of this survey is to evaluate effectiveness of EYLEA on Quality of Life (QOL). The QOL is evaluated by using Japanese version (v.1.4 - interviewer administered format) of National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 (NEI VFQ-25) and compared at baseline and at the 6 and 12 months after start of EYLEA treatment.
This study is a regulatory post-marketing surveillance in Japan, and it is a local prospective and observational study of patients who have received EYLEA for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). The objective of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of EYLEA using in real clinical practice. A total of 4,000 patients are to be enrolled and assessed in 3 years standard observational period. An annual follow-up survey will be conducted for 5 years at the longest after standard observational period.
The general objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ophthalmic intravitreal injections of ALG-1001 in human subjects with wet age-related macular degeneration (Wet AMD). This study builds upon the safety and efficacy results of numerous animal studies and an earlier Phase I Human Study in end-stage diabetic macular edema patients.
TREX is a phase IIIb, multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical study. Subjects will be randomized 1:2 to "monthly" (control arm) or "treat and extend" protocol (comparator arm) respectively. TREX assess the safety, tolerability and efficacy of intravitreal injections (IVT) of 0.5mg ranibizumab given monthly for up to 100 weeks followed by pro re nata (PRN) treatment for 56 weeks compared to a Treat and Extend protocol for 156 weeks in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Subjects treated in a treat and extend protocol receive 3 consecutive IVT 0.5 mg ranibizumab (visits 2, 4 and 5). Starting at week 8, if a subject has achieved a "dry" macula; signs of active exudation have resolved will begin a Treat and Extend protocol (visits lengthened by 2 week intervals every visit a dry macular is maintained). At the beginning of the 104-week endpoint subjects initially randomized to the TREX cohort will transition to PRN re-treatment when there is no exudative disease activity at the 12-week interval.
This is a phase 4, open-label, single arm, multicenter, clinical study in patients with neovascular AMD designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection (IAI) administered over 2 years , and to provide clinical information from the first year in the trial evaluating the adverse effects, if any, on the corneal endothelium following administration of IAI.
