Filter by:The study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of triamcinolone acetonide, CLS-TA, in subjects with macular edema following non-infectious uveitis. A single suprachoroidal injection of one of two doses of CLS-TA will each be evaluated in subjects with macular edema following non-infectious uveitis.
This study is intended to evaluate the safety of V404 PDS in patients with chronic non-infectious uveitis. Secondarily, the study will evaluate whether V404 PDS can provide clinically measurable benefit over an extended period of time in patients with chronic non-infectious uveitis.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not the dexamethasone pellet (Ozurdex®, Allergan, Irvine, CA) can replace oral corticosteroid (e.g. prednisone) in the treatment of active sight-threatening, noninfectious intermediate and/or posterior uveitis in which immunosuppressive drug therapy is indicated. Uveitis is an inflammation inside the eye. Uveitis can decrease patients' vision if it is not treated. The dexamethasone pellet is an implant filled with a corticosteroid medicine. This therapy is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of intermediate and/or posterior uveitis. In this study investigators want to see if using the implant together with systemic immunosuppressive drug therapy can result in lower ocular side effect profile but is effective enough to replace the use of high-dose systemic corticosteroids in the treatment of active intermediate and/or posterior uveitis. Knowing the effectiveness and safety of these treatments is important because the kinds of uveitis being studied usually need to be treated for many years. This information may help researchers understand uveitis better and may suggest ways of improving treatment. Adult patients with intermediate and/or posterior uveitis for which immunosuppressive drug therapy with high-dose corticosteroid is planned may join.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled study subjects with active, sight-threatening, noninfectious intermediate or posterior uveitis.
This study is designed to determine the safety and tolerability of a single microinjection of triamcinolone acetonide (TRIESENCE®) into the suprachoroidal space (SCS) of patients who have non-infectious uveitis.
In the STOP-UVEITIS study, we propose to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and bioactivity of two doses of Tocilizumab (4mg/kg and 8mg/kg), administered monthly, in patients with non-infectious intermediate, posterior, or panuveitis.
This study is a multicenter, prospective, observational study to evaluate the long-term safety of OZURDEX® in patients with macular oedema following central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) or branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) or patients with non-infectious posterior segment uveitis in real-world clinical practice.
This was a multi-center, randomized, active-controlled, open-label study. Approximately 24 patients with active, non-infectious intermediate-, posterior-, or panuveitis requiring systemic immunosuppressive therapy were enrolled. Safety, efficacy, and PK assessments occurred at scheduled visits over a 12-week period. Low-molecular-weight non-steroidal immunosuppressive medications were allowed up to the baseline day as long as the dose had not changed in the 3 weeks prior to baseline, except for corticosteroid doses for which might have changed. Patients responding to treatment were offered up to 6 months of extended treatment. Assessments for safety included laboratory safety tests, ECGs, physical exams, ocular exams, vital signs and the monitoring of adverse events. Study participation varied from a minimum of 3 months to a maximum of 9 months.
BACKGROUND: Uveitis comprises of a group of diseases associated with inflammation of the eye that can lead to vision loss. Some people with uveitis also have macular edema (swelling of the retina at the back of the eye). Uveitis and macular edema are treated with medications and sometimes surgery, but treatment does not always prevent vision loss. Previous research has shown that injections of methotrexate into the eye of people with eye disease other than uveitis can help relieve the inflammation, or swelling, that causes macular edema and can slow visual loss. However, it has not yet been approved as a treatment for macular edema associated with uveitis. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of methotrexate injections as a treatment for macular edema associated with uveitis. ELIGIBILITY: Individuals at least 18 years of age who have been diagnosed with uveitis and macular edema in at least one eye. DESIGN: - This study requires at least nine visits to the National Eye Institute study clinic over a period of 6 months (24 weeks). - Participants will be screened with a physical and ophthalmic examination, medical history, blood and urine tests, and additional eye and other tests as needed. - Participants will receive a methotrexate injection in a selected treatment eye. After the injection, participants will receive antibiotic eye drops to place in the eye three times a day for the 3 days following the injection, leucovorin (folic acid) drops to place in the eye four times a day for 1 week following the injection, and a dose of folic acid to be taken by mouth the day after the injection. - Participants who tolerate the initial injection may continue to receive injections in their study eye every month for 6 months. After 6 months, participants who show improvement from the injections may be evaluated to receive additional injections every 4 to 8 weeks until researchers end the study.
The purpose of this study is to find out about the safety and effectiveness of two different doses the study drug, sirolimus, administered intravitreally in patients with uveitis. The potential effectiveness of sirolimus can be utilized to control inflammation in uveitis and yet avoid the potential complications that are usually associated with the systemic use of the drug and other immunomodulatory therapies. In this study, the investigators will administer sirolimus inside the eye (intravitreally) in one of two doses (440mcg/mcL or 880mcg/mcL). Local administration of sirolimus to the eye is not expected to have effects on the rest of the body. Therefore, it may offer a safer way than the current methods used to control the inflammation caused by non-infectious uveitis.
