Filter by:This Phase IIIb, single-arm, open-label multicenter clinical in-use study in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME) is designed to assess the ability of the intended users, healthcare providers (HCPs), to follow the Instructions for Use to perform an intravitreal (IVT) injection using the 6-milligram (mg) faricimab prefilled syringe (PFS) configuration per the intended use. Any adverse events occurring during the 7-day study reporting period will be summarized.
Aim - To investigate repeatability and stability of the six OTH-related Bulbicam tests in patients suffering from a) Diabetic retinopathy (DR), b) Age related macular degeneration (AMD) and matched healthy controls (HC). - To compare Bulbicam and the Standard Method on measurements of Visual Field and Pupil - To contribute to the establishment of normal range for DR and AMD patients with different degree in the disease development related to the Bulbicam tests. - To contribute to the establishment of normal range for a normal population without eye-disease related to the Bulbicam tests. Study population The study consists of the following three study populations: 1) Patients suffering from DR of both genders above 18 years of age with different disease degree; 2) Patients suffering from AMD of both genders above 18 years of age with different disease degree; 3) Gender- and age-matched HC without any eye diseases. Study procedure Participants, who fulfil the inclusion criteria; do not meet any of the exclusion criteria and willing to give informed consent to participate will receive an appointment for starting the study. The Bulbicam examination will be performed twice a day with a rest period of one hour between each registration. This procedure will be repeated the following two days. All demographic data, social factors and history of disease will be recorded at screening. Additionally, the quality of life (QoL) questionnaires EQ-5D-5L developed by EuroQol will be recorded initially as individual baseline values. The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 4.0 will be used for measuring and classifying the tolerability and toxicity at the end of each day of investigation.
A study is conducted to determine the effectiveness of prism spectacles in improving visual acuity with age related macular degeneration patients and to assess the improvement in quality of life in patients by using prism spectacles.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the quality of life of AMD patients related to vision using the short version of the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI-VFQ-25), patients' social support, and their relationship with demographic and clinical variables.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effects of a single intravitreal injection of virally-carried Multi-Characteristic Opsin (vMCO-010) in Subjects with Stargardt Disease
This is a randomised, double-masked, parallel group, multicentre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of QL1207 compared to Eylea® in subjects with wet AMD.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a complex eye disorder and the most common macular disease affecting millions of aged people in the developed countries, with an estimation that the number of AMD patients will be increased to 196 million in 2020, 288 million in 2040. Vision loss, central scotomas and metamorphopsia are the hallmark signs in patients with macular diseases. Metamorphopsia can be defined as a deformation of seen rectilinear lines due to photoreceptor separation/location and it is a typical but not exclusive sign of retinal disease. The most effective method of treating wet AMD is currently the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor intravitreal injections (anti-VEGF). A further concern is the enormous costs and restriction of human resources that make periodic imaging unfeasible. Therefore, in patients with AMD treated by intravitreal anti-VEGF, monitoring with sensitive psychophysical tools could advance the time for diagnosis of CNV reactivation and enhance the outcome of treatment. For assessment of the visual function, visual acuity and Amsler grid have been the gold standard. The Amsler grid is a simple and noninvasive test effortlessly understood by the patient, consisting of evenly spaced vertical and horizontal lines outlining 400 square, it has been widely adopted as a subjective test for metamorphopsia. However, it also produces high false-negative rate. Moreover, the answer to this test is dichotomous: straight or crooked lines and does not allow for quantification thus, it is problematic to monitor the visual function along the course and to evaluate the effectiveness of treatment with anti-VEGF agents. The M-chart (Inami Co., Tokyo, Japan) is a diagnostic device developed by Matsumoto to quantify the grade of metamorphopsia in patients with various types of macular diseases. The usefulness of M-charts has been already demonstrated in different retinal diseases from macular pucker to BRVO. The aim of this study is to compare the traditional Amsler grid and the M-Charts in evaluating metamorphopsia in patients suffering from wet AMD before and after Anti VEGF injection; and to match it with OCT results.
Many patients will have underlying maculopathy present when undergoing cataract surgery, which are not visible on fundoscopy alone. Knowledge of this underlying pathology will allow an improved consenting process and discussion with the patient regarding the risks, visual prognosis and recovery following cataract surgery. Incidental findings in the fellow eye would also allow for improved diagnosis and management of these patients without adding significant additional time to specialist high volume cataract assessment clinics.
This is a single-arm, open-label study where all patients will receive a single injection of SOK583A1 (40 mg/mL) provided in a vial kit at Baseline. The total study duration for the individual participant is approximately 31 days.
The study will enroll up to 30 AMD patients diagnosed with NV-AMD in at least one eye at the time of enrollment. At the Study Visit, fluid must be present in at least one eye of the subjects. If only one eye qualifies for enrollment, that will be assigned as the study eye. If both eyes are eligible, the study eye will be assigned according to a randomization schedule. Only one eye of each subject will be enrolled in the study. All subjects will be enrolled at 1 site in the United States. Subjects must meet all inclusion and no exclusion criteria.
