Filter by:To provide efficacy and safety data on intravitreal injections of ranibizumab 0.5 mg in patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to BRVO
The aim of the trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injections of ranibizumab for the treatment of macular edema due to BRVO if the re-treatment regimen is guided by morphological macular changes detected by OCT compared to re-treatment according to SmPC defined re-treatment criteria (in case of increase of CRT and concomitant decrease of BCVA).
This study compares the efficacy of intravitreal bevacizumab monotherapy only or combined therapy of posterior subtenon's triamcinolone acetonide and intravitreal bevacizumab for the treatment of macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion.
This study will generate comparative data for 0.5-mg ranibizumab using PRN dosing administered with or without adjunctive laser treatment versus laser photocoagulation (the current standard of care) up to Month 6 in patients with visual impairment due to ME secondary to BRVO. Additionally the results of this study will provide long-term (24-month) safety and efficacy data for ranibizumab, administered with or without adjunctive laser treatment in this indication.
This is a phase III, double-masked, randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group, 52-week study to assess the efficacy and safety of Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection (IAI;EYLEA®;BAY86-5321) compared to laser treatment in patients with macular edema secondary to BRVO.
This study examines two doses of Ranibizumab (0.5mg and 1.0mg) for the treatment of macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion in patients that have previously failed treatment with other macular edema treatments including bevacizumab.
This clinical trial is designed to compare ranibizumab in comparison with Dexamethasone implant after 6 months of treatment. In the study arm Ranibizumab will be given monthly in a pro re nata scheme whereas the comparator Dexamethasone implant is given once at Month 0 with sham injections PRN afterwards.
Branch retinal vein occlusion is a leading cause of vision loss. Treatment with ranibizumab (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitor) on a monthly basis has been associated with improved vision results. There is a subgroup of patients with peripheral nonperfusion on ultrawidefield angiography that appears to be more dependent on anti-VEGF treatment. In this trial the investigators compare the gold standard of monthly ranibizumab injections with ranibizumab + peripheral scatter laser to the areas of nonperfusion on angiography. Each group will have monthly injections for the first six months, then as needed by either visual acuity decrease or increased retinal thickness for the subsequent six months. The primary outcome is visual acuity. Secondary outcomes are reduction in optical coherence tomography, and number of ranibizumab injections
Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) is a common retinal vascular disease occurring in a significant number of individuals older than 50 years.The most common cause of visual disturbance in BRVO patients is macular edema, which has been reported in 60% of patients. Macular grid laser photocoagulation has been shown to be effective in the treatment of macular edema arising from BRVO. Some eyes are resistant to conventional grid laser treatment, and the conventional treatment is not useful in patients with intraretinal hemorrhages that may interfere with laser photocoagulation. Moreover, several studies have shown that conventional grid laser treatment for macular edema may be associated with complications. Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide (IVTA) injection has recently been reported to be effective in the treatment of macular edema of various etiologies.On the other hand, arteriovenous sheathotomy is a surgical method suggested for treatment of macular edema in BRVO patients, and has been reported to be efficacious in patients refractory to conventional focal or grid laser macular photocoagulation.Both treatment modalities have been reported to be associated with reductions in central macular thicknesses and improved visual acuities. The purpose of the study is to compare the efficacies of arteriovenous (AV) sheathotomy and intravitreal triamcinolone (IVTA) injection in the treatment of macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).
Growing evidence shows that altered blood flow plays a major role in many vision-threatening diseases including glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, Central Retinal Vein Occlusion, and Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion. Optical coherence tomography, an established imaging technique use for eye exam in clinical ophthalmology, provides high-resolution cross sectional images of the retina and has increased our ability to understand many eye diseases.
