Filter by:The purpose of this research study is to observe the patient's clinical care and how EYLEA® HD is used as a treatment in real-world settings. Patients are asked to join the study because they have either neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD/wet age-related macular degeneration [AMD]) or diabetic macular edema (DME). Patients cannot have used EYLEA® HD in the past and the doctor must be planning to treat nAMD or DME with a new prescription of EYLEA® HD (aflibercept 8 mg).
This will be a randomized, comparative, parallel, clinical study to assess initial safety and tolerability of CG-P5 peptide eye drops compared to placebo in patients diagnosed with age-related wet macular degeneration
Regeneron Pharmaceuticals developed a single-dose pre-filled syringe (PFS) to deliver 8 mg aflibercept. The PFS is a convenient device that contains the study medication that will be injected in your study eye. A PFS offers a sterile, single dose of study drug within the syringe; this eliminates the need for the retina specialist to prepare the injection syringe from a separate vial. This Phase IIIb study is focused on patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) and neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). The main aim of the study is to evaluate if the 8 mg aflibercept PFS allows for successful preparation and administration of 8 mg aflibercept by retina specialists. The study will also assess the safety of 8 mg aflibercept PFS use. Regeneron will use the information from the study to better understand if the PFS can be used safely and effectively by retina specialists to administer 8 mg aflibercept.
The investigators have worked with software designers to develop a software that allows us to analyse current adherence to guidelines on Ophthalmic conditions such as Age related Macular Degeneration (AMD), Diabetic Macular Edema (DMO) and Retinal vein occlusion (RVO). National guidelines state that those patients with fluid accumulation in their central macular, meeting criteria, are eligible for injections into the vitreous cavity of the eye (intravitreal).(1) As these condition are common the trial is relevant to the public and patients as future management may be affected by the outcomes of this trial. The investigators will trial the software which uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms to determine the most suitable review required for patients being managed in clinics, based on 'Vision' and 'Retinal Thickness' demographics. This will be done prospectively, in real time. The question to be addressed is 'Can medical and non-medical practitioners accurately determine treatment and follow-up for patients assisted by an AI clinical decision support system, for the three most common chronic macular diseases - Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (wAMD), Diabetic Macular Oedema (DMO) and Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) - in a safe and clinically cost effective way?' Patients undergoing treatment for at least 12 months are eligible to participate, so long as they are able to provide consent for their data to be used. Participants will have no change to their care during the trial. The study, will take place at Guy's and St. Thomas' NHS FT (GSTT) from where participants will be recruited, and will last approximately 6 months of data collection. The software will be used by the research Fellow, alongside the masked consultant. Therefore the patient pathway and management will not be impacted by this trial. Patients will be consented for data use.
FT-003 is a gene therapy product developed for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). Neovascular AMD is the main cause of blindness among elderly individuals. The available therapies for treating nAMD require life-long intravitreal (IVT) injections every 4-12 weeks to maintain efficacy. Administration of FT-003 has the potential to treat nAMD by providing durable expression of therapeutic levels of intraocular protein and maintaining the vision of patients. FT-003 is designed to reduce the current treatment burden which often results in undertreatment and vision loss in patients with nAMD receiving anti-VEGF therapy in clinical practice.
The goal for this study is to initiate a randomized, controlled clinical trial to test the viability of personalized AMD progression prediction models. Early and intermediate AMD patients will be recruited and randomly assigned them to a control or test group. The test group will include patients who will receive personalized follow-up care based on their predicted risk, and collect baseline and follow-up data. This work will advance the AMD field by improving the identification of high-risk patients as candidates for more frequent screening and earlier treatment, leading to better clinical outcomes.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of every 2 week intravitreal aflibercept injections in a population of neovascular AMD patients that have demonstrated refractory subretinal fluid with or without intraretinal fluid despite prior monthly intravitreal aflibercept treatment.
