Filter by:The objective of the CABERNET Trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of focal delivery of radiation for the treatment of subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The Epi-Rad90™ Ophthalmic System treats neovascularization of retinal tissue by means of a focal, directional delivery of radiation to the target tissues in the retina. Using standard vitreoretinal surgical techniques, the sealed radiation source is placed temporarily over the retinal lesion by means of a handheld medical device.
This study evaluated the effect of combination therapy with verteporfin photodynamic therapy and ranibizumab on visual acuity and anatomic outcomes compared to ranibizumab monotherapy and the durability of response observed in patients with choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration.
This study will evaluate the effect of combination therapy with verteporfin photodynamic therapy and ranibizumab on visual acuity compared to ranibizumab monotherapy and the durability of response observed in patients with choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration
This pilot study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal ranibizumab used in combination with verteporfin photodynamic therapy (Visudyne®) compared to ranibizumab monotherapy for the treatment of subfoveal CNV secondary to AMD
The purpose of this research study is to compare different timing therapies of Verteporfin with Bevacizumab to treat choroidal neovascularization (CNV) due to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
The purpose of this study is to determine the sensitivity of the optical coherence tomography (OCT) test in detecting neovascular AMD in eyes at high risk for CNV development. In order to test this hypothesis, we are conducting a multi-center clinical study at four participating clinical centers. A total of 227 participants will be enrolled. Participants will be followed-up for a period of two years, or until CNV develops in the study eye for which treatment is recommended, to determine the occurrence of CNV. The fundamental design principles of the study are simplicity and parsimony.
Purpose: Determine the short-term safety of intravitreal bevacizumab by multifocal electroretinography (mf-ERG). Methods: 120 eyes with choroidal neovascularization, proliferative diabetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusion received intravitreal bevacizumab (2.5mg/0.1cc). All patients underwent best corrected visual acuity, fluorescein angiography, optical coherent tomography and mf-ERG before and 1 month after treatment.
This study will quantify the intraocular pressure elevation in the immediate time period following intravitreous injection. With more widespread use of intravitreous injections in patients that may require several injections per year, it is important to document the sudden increase in intraocular pressure, including the maximum intraocular pressure and the time required for the intraocular pressure to return to baseline. This data may be useful in stimulating additional studies to evaluate the long term ocular effects of repeated intravitreous injections. We hypothesize that the intraocular pressure increases significantly following intravitreous injection and then returns to baseline during the initial thirty minutes following ranibizumab injection.
This study is an evaluation of the short term effects on CNV perfusion of a same-day administration of photodynamic therapy (PDT) with Visudyne® and an intravitreal injection of Lucentis® (ranibizumab, 0.3 mg). An evaluation of the short term effects on CNV perfusion of this combined treatment is needed for better understanding of treatment effects.
The purpose of this study is to see if the drug bevacizumab is safe and effective to use for people with choroidal neovascularization (CNV). CNV is an eye condition where abnormal blood vessels grow in the part of the eye responsible for central (straight ahead) vision. The drug is produced using recombinant DNA technology and has been approved by the FDA for use in colon cancer. Although not yet approved for people with CNV, the FDA has given permission to use this drug in this study.
