Filter by:The purpose of this study is to confirm the efficacy and safety of rostaporfin (PHOTREX) photodynamic therapy (PDT) in the treatment of classic and occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
This study will examine the efficacy and safety of pegaptanib sodium in Japanese patients with wet-type AMD, in order to establish that there is no large difference in the efficacy and the safety of the drug between Western and Japanese patients.
Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative eye disease of the retina that causes a progressive loss of central vision. AMD is the leading cause of blindness among adults age 50 or older in the Western world. AMD presents in two different types: "dry" and the more severe "wet" form. Wet AMD is caused by the growth of abnormal blood vessels in the macula. Squalamine lactate is an investigational drug that may prevent the growth of these abnormal blood vessels. This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Squalamine lactate in the treatment of AMD in patients, the exact number of which will be determined based on data from the sponsor's ongoing Phase 2 trials. The trial objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two doses of Squalamine lactate for Injection administered as intravenous infusions weekly for 4 weeks followed by maintenance doses every 4 weeks through week 104 compared with the safety and efficacy in the control group.
This study evaluates the tolerability and safety of 3 months treatment with PTK787 tablets given daily. It also explores the efficacy of the compound in patients with wet age-related macular edema. In Cohort 1 verteporfin/PDT is the active control. The protocol was amended to reflect the current standard of care for AMD. As a result, ranibizumab is the active control for Cohort 2.
Age related macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness for people over 50 in the western world. Blood vessels which start to grow form a lesion in the back of the eye. Verteporfin may stabilize the disease, by closing the blood vessels. This study will assess the efficacy and safety of verteporfin in patients with occult only lesions.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that Visudyne therapy in patients who have occult with no classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesions will, with an acceptable safety profile, significantly reduce the risk of vision loss compared with placebo (sham treatment).
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of Talaporfin Sodium (LS11) Photodynamic Therapy in patients with late stage Age-Related Macular Disease (AMD).
The study will investigate the safety and feasibility of using the TheraSight(TM) Brachytherapy System for treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
This is a phase III, multicenter, randomized, double masked, sham injection-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of intravitreally administered ranibizumab in subjects with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration.
AG-013,958 is being studied to treat patients with Age-Related Macular Degeneration. A total of 144 subjects may be enrolled in the trial. Subjects will be male or female at least 55 years of age with "wet" age-related macular degeneration.
