The investigators have developed an image analysis method that can predict the likelihood that a patient with age related macular degeneration (AMD) will progress within 1 year, based on computerized analysis of optical coherence tomography (OCT) images that are routinely acquired in clinical practice on each patient visit to the ophthalmologist. The investigators' goal is to evaluate whether this method will improve the ability to detect AMD earlier and improve visual outcomes in AMD patients by assigning patient risk categories and having patients come back for follow up based on those categories.
This pilot study will evaluate home vision testing using a mobile medical application in participants with diabetic macular edema (DME) or neovascular age-related macula degeneration (nAMD) who receive intravitreal ranibizumab therapy. In the main, decentralized study, participants will be recruited via digital media, advocacy groups, or through their own ophthalmologist. The traditional substudy will evaluate the association between visual acuity and anatomical markers of disease status determined using clinical "gold standard" assessments (certified Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study [ETDRS] protocol visual acuity and macula optical coherence tomography [OCT]) and the results of home vision testing using the myVisionTrack^TM (mVT) application.
The primary objective of the study was to explore the effect of REGN2176-3 on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Scale (ETDRS) best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in participants with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), compared to intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) monotherapy. The secondary objectives of the study were the following: - To explore the effect of 2 dose levels of IVT REGN2176-3 on anatomical changes of CNV in participants with nAMD compared to IAI monotherapy (at week 12) - To evaluate if short-term treatment with REGN2176-3 followed by IAI monotherapy offered the same or additional benefit compared to continuous treatment with REGN2176-3. Also to determine if there was benefit in initiating IAI treatment prior to REGN2176-3 compared to continuous treatment with IAI. - To assess the safety and tolerability of IVT REGN2176-3 in participants with nAMD
While a fair amount of clinical data on Stargardt disease type 1 (STGD1) have been published, very little is known about Stargardt disease type 4 (STGD4). The ProgStar 04 study is an important opportunity to leverage the infrastructure, clinical trials sites, methods, and central reading center of the ProgStar program to investigate the progression of STGD4 and will help to establish patient cohorts worldwide for future clinical trials.
The purpose of this study is to determine the long term safety and tolerability of ALK-001 (C20-D3-retinyl acetate), and to explore the effects of ALK-001 on the progression of Stargardt disease in patients between the ages of 8 and 70 years old. Funding Source - FDA OOPD
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal (IVT) administration of DE-120 in subjects with treatment-naive active subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
This study seeks to better characterize relationships between visual function and the progression (worsening) of geographic atrophy (GA) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study also will generate new information on the relationship between genetics and GA progression. This is a global, prospective, multicenter, epidemiologic study enrolling 200 participants with GA secondary to AMD. The study visits are scheduled to occur every 6 months. The anticipated duration of the study is up to 60 months.
The purpose of this first-in-human study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of LMG324 to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nvAMD) subjects. Enrollment will be expanded at a safe and tolerated dose in treatment naïve nvAMD subjects to compare a single intravitreal (IVT) dose of LMG324 to ranibizumab 0.5 mg administered every 4 weeks for change from baseline in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at Week 12 (Day 85).
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is an acquired retinal pathology affecting the central region of the retina responsible for discrimination between high spatial frequencies (reading), colour vision and the central visual field. The loss of visual acuity which occurs with the onset of AMD significantly affects patients' quality of life. In developed countries, AMD is the leading cause of vision impairment for people aged over 50 years. Its prevalence in Europe in people aged over 65 years is 3.3%. In France, around 2 million people suffer from this disease. In the first stage of the disease it is known as age-related maculopathy (ARM). This early form of the disease can develop into intermediate AMD (stage 3 of the AREDS classification) and then advanced AMD (stage 4 AREDS), which can be atrophic or exudative. In cases of exudative AMD, the intravitreal administration of anti-VEGF drugs can limit the disease's progression. It is therefore vital to adopt a strategy to assess the stage of the disease and provide the appropriate care management at the earliest possible stage. This is even more important for patients with advanced AMD in one eye and intermediate AMD in the fellow eye, as the risk of the fellow eye progressing to the advanced stage within 5 years is between 35% and 53%. Microperimetry is a promising new diagnostic method which combines measurements of light sensitivity, loss of fixation and the anatomy of the retina. It offers a new approach to the functional assessment of retinal damage in patients with AMD, as it precisely correlates anatomical and functional modifications by measuring the loss of sensitivity and macular fixation. It has been shown that the more advanced the patient's AMD is, the further the parameters measured by microperimetry are from the norm. The investigators want to assess the MAIA™ as a means of screening for AMD progression in patients with a high risk of progressing to a more advanced stage (patients presenting one eye with advanced AMD and a fellow eye with stage 3 AMD according to the AREDS classification). The research hypothesis for our proposed study is that the parameters measured using microperimetry will already show abnormal results in the study eye prior to progressing to a more advanced stage of the disease. The use of these microperimetric parameters as predictor of progression would therefore make it possible to screen eyes likely to develop from intermediate to advanced AMD at an earlier stage, and subsequently provide patients who need it with earlier follow-up, preventive treatment or adapted, personalized rehabilitation as appropriate.
