Filter by:This is a research study to evaluate the effects of repeated intravitreal injections on bacteria around the eye.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fact that 20 milligrams per day of oral Zeaxanthin as a supplement to patients with Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and exudative age related macular degeneration (ARMD) undergoing combination therapy with intravitreal Bevacizumab (Avastin), intravitreal Dexamethasone and PDT laser photocoagulation and improves anatomic and visual outcome compared to patients not receiving oral Zeaxanthin. Study patients will be taking AREDS(PreserVision) and multivitamins (Centrum Silver); in addition one-half of the patients will receive 20mg of oral Zeaxanthin.
The purpose of this study is to confirm the clinical and economic benefits of IRay treatment with respect to the number of anti-VEGF injections and frequency of visits during the first year after treatment for patients with wet Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).
This is a two-part study. The first part (Stratum I) is an open-label, dose escalation, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic study, where active study drug (PF-04523655) will be given to all patients who participate. Stratum I will determine the maximum tolerated dose and any dose-limiting toxicities. The second part (Stratum II) is a prospectively randomized, multi-center, double-masked, dose ranging study evaluating the efficacy and safety of PF-04523655 alone and in combination with ranibizumab versus ranibizumab alone in patients with DME.
This is an open-label, multicenter, extension study of intravitreally administered ranibizumab in two cohorts. The first cohort (reported separately under FVF3426g, NCT00379795) enrolled subjects with primary or recurrent Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) who completed the treatment phase of a Genentech sponsored study (FVF2598g (NCT00056836), FVF2587g (NCT00061594), or FVF2428g (NCT00056823)). The second cohort (reported here) enrolled subjects with macular edema secondary to Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) who completed the 6-month treatment and 6-month observation phases (12 months total) of a Genentech sponsored study (FVF4165g (NCT00486018) or FVF4166g (NCT00485836)). Patients were enrolled within 14 days of completion of the previous study.
This study is designed to prove and confirm the efficacy and safety of multiple injections of human recombinant vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-Fc fusion protein (KH902) in patients with choroidal neovascularization due to neovascular age-related macular degeneration by comparing intravitreal injections of KH902 with sham-injections.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 3 dose groups (27, 36 and 45 mg/m2) of Combretastatin A-4 Phosphate for the treatment of subfoveal choroidal neovascularization in subjects with pathologic myopia.
The objective of this study is to confirm the safety and to establish the effectiveness of low voltage external beam radiosurgery using the IRay System for the treatment of subjects with recurrent leakage secondary to neovascular Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) as determined by decreasing the number of Lucentis injections required during the first 12 months of the study.
The FORESEE HOME is intended for the early detection of central and paracentral irregularities (abnormalities) in the visual field, most commonly associated with Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD). However, the device has the ability to detect the development of the lesion post treatment and therefore to assess in determination of the next treatment. The Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) may be used as well to identify choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Comparison between the two methods will allow better understanding of both devices. The FORESEE HOME can be used as an assessment tool for the progression and success of the treatment given to AMD lesions. Therefore, evaluating the size and the location of the treated lesions may serve as an additional tool.
ForeseeHome, an FDA-approved home device, was specifically designed for unsupervised Preferential-Hyperacuity-Perimeter (PHP) testing of Age Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) patients at home by characterizing central and paracentral metamorphopsia . The purpose of the current study is to evaluate if, in post-treatment patients, PHP parameters as measured with the ForeseeHome are in agreement with clinical decisions and retinal characteristics as measured with optical coherence tomography (OCT).
