Filter by:The purpose of this study is to validate a predictive model of diabetic retinopathy progression in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 patients to clinically significant macular edema (CSME) needing treatment either photocoagulation or intravitreal injections (ITV) using non-invasive techniques.
The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of the anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) agent ranibizumab (0.5 mg) with or without Panretinal laser photocoagulation (PRP) compared to PRP alone in patients with Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR).
The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of an 0.7 mg intravitreal dexamethasone implant (Ozurdex®) on macular leakage and visual acuity for patients with recalcitrant diabetic macular edema.
The basic objective of this project is to test a modification of existing technology for monitoring the responses of the pupil to light as a method for detecting regional losses of function of the retina. The "instrument" consists of a commercially available set of goggles that monitor the eye positions and pupils using infrared light and small cameras. The signals from the monitoring cameras are collected in a computer that records how their pupils have responded to each lighting condition. Because diabetics develop damage initially to certain parts of the retina before they have more serious damage, the ultimate goal of this research is to develop a simple, noninvasive, rapid method for widespread screening of diabetics in order to identify those who may require medical attention and/or therapy for diabetic retinopathy.
This study is investigating if the oral beta antagonist propranolol can induce regression of retinal neovascularization associated with proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
The purpose of this study is to characterize the systemic and ocular safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, exploratory efficacy and pharmacodynamics of 3 months of repeat administration of oral darapladib in diabetic macular edema patients with centre involvement.
This study is to investigate the effect of adjunctive intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB) before panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) compared with only PRP on central macular thickness and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in patients with severe diabetic retinopathy without macular edema.
The primary objective of the protocol is to determine if visual acuity outcomes at 2 years in eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) that receive anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy with deferred panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) are non-inferior to those in eyes that receive standard prompt PRP therapy. Secondary objectives include: - Comparing other visual function outcomes (including Humphrey visual field testing and study participant self-reports of visual function) in eyes receiving anti-VEGF with deferred PRP with those in eyes receiving prompt PRP. - Determining percent of eyes not requiring PRP when anti-VEGF is given in the absence of prompt PRP. - Comparing safety outcomes between treatment groups. - Comparing associated treatment and follow-up exam costs between treatment groups.
Primary objective of this trial will be to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal injections of Macugen (pegaptanib sodium) when given at least 7-14 days prior to vitrectomy in subjects with tractional retinal detachment (with or withoutmacular involvement) secondary to proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Secondary objective is to evaluate regression of neovascularization and progression of macular traction utilizing OCT and fundus photographs.
