Clinical Trial Summary

The investigators would like to investigate the efficacy of more frequent treatment with Lucentis for subjects with persistent diabetic macular edema despite standard dosing regimen.


Description:

This is an open-label, subject masked, phase II study of intravitreally administered ranibizumab in subjects with persistent diabetic macular edema. Persistent diabetic macular edema is defined as subjects who still have central subfield thickness on SD-OCT of greater than 320 microns after having received at least 3 previous doses of AntiVEGF therapy in the past 5 months. Consented, enrolled subjects will be randomized into two subgroups: (1) standard dosing of monthly 0.3mg ranibizumab or (2) 0.3mg ranibizumab given 2 weeks apart for 5 doses followed by monthly dosing.

- Uncontrolled systemic disease

- Current enrollment in an investigational drug study or participation in such a study within 30 days prior to the screening visit

- Female patients who are pregnant, nursing or planning a pregnancy or who are of childbearing potential and not using a reliable means of contraception.
