Filter by:Anti-VEGF intravitreal injections are the treatment of choice in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However 37% of patients are unresponsive or poorly responsive to these therapies. It is still not possible to foresee the patient's response to anti-VEGF injections. A poor response may be related to an activation of alternative pro-angiogenic pathways with over expression of many other pro-angiogenic cytokines. The primary goal of this study is to measure the aqueous humor concentration of pro-angiogenic cytokines in AMD patients.
To evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of OTX-TKI for intravitreal use, in subjects who have neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
To evaluate the safety and exploratory efficacy of 1.0mg of Luminate® in patients with Intermediate Non-Exudative Macular Degeneration
The purpose of this collection is to search for susceptibility genes for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) alone or in combination with environmental factors and to look for genes that modulate the AMD phenotype (particularly the response to treatment).
This study is designed to compare the effect of combined intravitreal Bevacizumab and Propranolol injection versus Bevacizumab monotherapy in patients with Age Related Macular Degeneration. Methods: In this study patients with Age Related Macular Degeneration who are naïve or had history of previous treatment are included. The eligible patients in randomized in two groups "Bevacizumab" and "Bavacizumab + propranolol" and in injected intravitreally for 3 times monthly. In "Bevacizumab+propranolol" group patients receive two injections at each session Bavacizumab and propranolol. In "Bevacizumab" group patients receive only Bevacizumab. The patients are followed for 6 months and central macular thickness and visual acuity is measured at baseline and monthly for 6 month. Baseline ancillary exams include Fluorescein Angiography and OCT-Angiography which is performed at the final exam as well. Patients needing any therapeutic intervention is addressed during the 6 month follow up period.
For patients with at least one eye with non-tractional diabetic edema refractory to 6 months of anti-VEGF injections (anti Vascular endothelial growth factor injections), a randomization is done: one group of patients will receive the standard treatment (anti-VEGF injections, switch to another anti-VEGF drug, additional photocoagulation or any other treatment except vitrectomy during the first 6 months after the randomisation) and the other group of patients will receive vitrectomy (with only additional photocoagulation during the first 6 months, then any treatment from 6 months after the randomization).
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of intense dosing for a limited period in patients who demonstrate refractory disease on monthly IAI. Patients will be followed for 52 weeks
Patients with treatment naive wet AMD will receive an intravitreal anti-VEGF injection at Day 0 followed by an intravitreal injection of AAVCAGsCD59 at Day 7. Patients will be followed monthly through Month 12 and receive an intravitreal anti-VEGF injection as needed based on an increase in central subfoveal thickness (CST) of >50 micrometers on OCT from Day 0, new subretinal hemorrhage on clinical exam, and/or loss of 10 or more ETDRS letters from the previous month exam.
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.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness after 50 years in industrialized countries, compromising daily activities and reducing quality of life. And whose treatment is one of the first health expenditures. Since September 2015, Bevacizumab, which does not have marketing authorization in AMD, has been given a temporary recommendation for use. Studies in other countries have shown that bevacizumab is cost-effective in the treatment of AMD compared to other anti-VEGF therapies used.
