Filter by:In this randomized 3-armed clinical trial, 105 eyes with PDR will be included and divided randomly into 3 groups: IVB group (35 eyes) that receive 4 monthly IVB injections and then rescue IVB, PRP group (35 eyes) that undergo full PRP in 2 or 3 sessions and then rescue IVB, and combination group (35 eyes) that receive 2 bimonthly IVB injections and a modified laser (1 session anterior to the equator) and then rescue IVB or laser. Diabetic macular edema (DME) will be treated independently in all groups by IVB. Primary outcome will be the number and activity of neovascularizations at 4,8 and 12 months and secondary measures will be changes in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central macular thickness (CMT), and number of examinations and injection.
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a diabetes complication caused by damage to the small blood vessels inside the retina at the back of the eye. Diabetic retinopathy may cause mild vision problems or eventually blindness. Diabetes is a condition that makes your blood sugar levels higher than they should be. In the early stages of diabetic retinopathy - called non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR)- increased blood sugar levels lead to damage to the tiny blood vessels of the retina. This damage results in small outpouchings of the vessel lumens leading to rupture. At the same time the blood vessels can leak and making the retina swell and can cause so called macula edema. In these early stages of DR current treatment to reduce the risk of this eye complication is focused on controlling blood sugar levels and blood pressure. Participants in this study have NPDR, Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) and Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), a condition in which the kidneys become damaged and do not work as they should. These participants are already taking part in one of the phase 3 studies (FIDELIO-DKD and FIGARO-DKD). They study the effect of Finerenone on delaying kidney disease progression and reducing the risk of events that may cause damage to the heart and blood vessels To learn more about the effect of Finerenone on diabetic retinopathy, data from routine eye examinations performed during the two phase 3 studies will be collected and analyzed. All male and female participants included in this study are at least 18 years.
The Retinal Care Data Repository's primary objective is to make data available for Retinal Care to develop algorithms that improve the care of people with retinal diseases.
This is a randomized, open-label, multicenter study of the efficacy and safety of RC28-E injection (a chimric decoy receptor trap fusion protein by dual blockage of VEGF and FGF-2) in the treatment of patients with moderately severe to severe nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Diabetes affects approximately 35 million Americans, each of whom needs at least one retinal exam per year. However, majority do not get their eye exam due to multiple prohibitive factors such as cost, transportation, difficulty of taking time off from work, and inconvenience, amongst others. The standard of care in diabetes requires at least an annual eye exam to detect onset of diabetic retinopathy and to treat when indicated. This is important as diabetes is the most common cause of visual impairment and blindness in working age adults in the United States. There are too few trained professionals to diagnose diabetic retinopathy, this prompted the development of RETINA-AI Galaxy an automated software as a medical device which screens for diabetic retinopathy in the primary care setting. This observational study is designed to validate the safety and efficacy of the device.
Evaluation of the effect of a therapy with INTRAVIT® tablets, on retinal edema considering also the central retinal sensitivity (Microperimetry) and the visual acuity in course of diabetic retinopathy.
The prevalence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in the UK is on the rise. Within 20 years of diabetes diagnosis, nearly all people with type 1 and almost two thirds of people with type 2 diabetes (60%) have some degree of DR. NHS guidelines mandate annual DR screening in all patients aged 12 and above to prevent complications of DR. Screening for DR in England involves labour-intensive manual grading of retinal images through the teleophthalmology platform. Automated retinal image analysis systems with the use of artificial intelligence (AI) may offer an alternative to manual grading. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of a portable, hand-held fundus camera with integrated artificial intelligence for diabetic retinopathy screening by comparing it against the current standard i.e diagnosis provided by trained human graders evaluating the standard photographs/ophthalmologists.
Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is one of the most widely used surgical therapies to proliferative diabetic retinopathy in the world. However, as a predictable consequence of PPV surgery, postoperative cataract is observed in 79%-95% of phakic diabetes retinopathy patients after PPV in 6-24 months and a subsequent cataract surgery is usually required. While, the subsequent cataract surgeries not only bring additional economy and workload burden, but also increase the surgical risks. Since the two-step surgical approach has its defects, the combination of PPV and phacoemulsification is an ideal surgical option. This study is a multi-center prospective study, aimed to evaluate the effect of PPV combined with phacoemulsification cataract surgery in phakic diabetes retinopathy patients, and make a comparation between the combined surgery and the two-step surgery in patients without severe lens opacities.
Blindness can be caused by many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, pathologic myopia and glaucoma. Without timely diagnosis and adequate medical intervention, the visual impairment can become a great burden on individuals as well as the society. It is estimated that China has 110 million patients under the attack of diabetes, 180 million patients with hypertension, 120 million patients suffering from high myopia and 200 million people over 60 years old, which suggest a huge population at the risk of blindness. Despite of this crisis in public health, our society has no more than 3,000 ophthalmologists majoring in fundus oculi disease currently. As most of them assembling in metropolitan cities, health system in this field is frail in primary hospitals. Owing to this unreasonable distribution of medical resources, providing medical service to hundreds of millions of potential patients threatened with blindness is almost impossible. To solve this problem, this software (MCS) was developed as a computer-aided diagnosis to help junior ophthalmologists to detect 13 major retina diseases from color fundus photographs. This study has been designed to validate the safety and efficiency of this device.
This Phase 2 study is conducted to investigate the safety and efficacy of runcaciguat in the treatment of diabetic retinopathy. To assess efficacy, the retinal morphology will be investigated by 7-field color fundus photography for central assessment of the diabetic retinopathy severity score, or DRSS. Two-step DRSS improvement at 24 weeks of treatment will be the primary efficacy endpoint. DRSS assessments are repeated after completion of 48 weeks of treatment. In addition, vision threatening complications will be recorded throughout the study and assessed as secondary efficacy endpoint.
