Filter by:Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a disease that blurs the sharp, central vision you need for "straight-ahead" activities such as reading, sewing, and driving. AMD affects the macula, the part of the eye that allows you to see fine detail The purpose of the study is to describe in patients with AMD and depending on the nature of their pathology (neovascular or atrophic): (i) knowledge about their pathology (risk factors, symptoms, treatments, self-monitoring tool), (ii) their needs and (iii) impact on their daily lives This study is to make an inventory of the knowledge of patients with AMD about their disease and risk factors using a questionnaire (Appendix 1) and to identify their needs, the impact of the disease on their daily lives during individual interviews by raising the recurrent data and confronting them during the focus group. The information gathered will enable the construction of a therapeutic education program for better patient care and to strengthen the patient's capacities so that he becomes an actor in his change throughout his care project. This a 3 steps study: 1. 200 patients will be enrolled and answer a questionnaire on knowledge of the disease 2. Two groups of 20 patients will be selected to participate to a semi-structured individual interviews 3. Two focus groups of 10 patients will be organized to assess needs, expectations, satisfactions or to better understand opinions, motivations or behaviors.
The investigators wish to better understand the role of the choriocapillaris (CC) in the formation and progression of non-exudative in age related macular degeneration (armd) by imaging the retinal pigment epithelium (rpe) and the choroidal microvasculature and by studying their inter-dependence to determine if the loss of the CC could prove useful as an anatomic clinical trial endpoint in future drug trials.
This study will evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of the Port Delivery System with ranibizumab (PDS) (100 mg/mL) in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) who have either completed Phase II Study GX28228 (Ladder), Phase III Study GR40548 (Archway), Phase IIIb Study WR42221 (Velodrome), or completed Week 24 visit in Study WR42221 but were not eligible to be randomized in WR42221.
Purpose: To assess the influence of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) administration on vitreomacular interface- and retinal morphology in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and to identify morphological markers potentially influencing disease prognosis. Methods: 43 patients (51 eyes) with treatment naïve neovascular AMD subsequently treated with Bevacizumab 1.25mg (in 0.05ml of solution) were monitored until month 12 of follow-up. Following a loading dose of 3 monthly intravitreal anti-VEGF injections, patients were treated as-needed [pro re nata (PRN)]. Functional and morphological changes were assessed using Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT).
Purpose: To assess retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) and retinal structural changes in eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) during long-term follow-up and to evaluate morphological markers potentially influencing prognosis. Methods: 18 patients (18 eyes) with neovascular AMD were recruited subsequent to completion the Avastin Versus Lucentis in Age Related Macular Degeneration (MANTA) study following a mean period of 84 months (range: 69-93 months). After receiving a loading dose of 3 intravitreal anti-VEGF injections subsequent to baseline of the MANTA study, patients were treated as-needed [pro re nata (PRN)]. Functional and morphological changes were assessed using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).
Study GR40548 is a Phase III, randomized, multicenter, open-label (visual assessor [VA]-masked), active-comparator study designed to assess the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of 100mg/ml delivered via the Port Delivery System with ranibizumab (PDS) compared with ranibizumab intravitreal injections at 0.5 mg (10 mg/mL) in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD).
Subjects with secondary wet age-related macular degeneration(AMD) or recurrent subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in only one study eye will be enrolled into the study.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of intravitreal bevacizumab (Lumiere®) in the single-dose form, for the treatment of patients with wet AMD.
This is an open label, non-controlled, dose-escalating study assessing the safety, tolerability, and bioactivity of a single intravitreal (i.vt.) injection of RBM-007 in approximately nine subjects with exudative age-related macular degeneration.
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different levels of conbercept intravitreal (IVT) injection as compared to the approved vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antagonist active control, aflibercept intravitreal injection (2.0 mg/eye, Eylea®), in subjects with neovascular AMD.
