Active clinical trials for "Macular Degeneration"

Safety Assessment of Pegcetacoplan in Patients with Neovascular AMD

The primary objective is to assess the safety of intravitreal (IVT) Zimura® administered in combination with anti-VEGF Therapy (AVASTIN®, EYLEA®, OR LUCENTIS®) in anti-VEGF treatment experienced subjects with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

Primary Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability of ascending doses of SAR422459 in participants with Stargardt's Macular Degeneration (SMD). Secondary Objective: To evaluate for possible biological activity of SAR422459.

Laser photocoagulation of the retina targeting the outer layers is an established therapy for proliferative retinopathy and macular edema from diabetic microangiopathy or retinal vein occlusion, centrals serous retinopathy, and extrafoveal subretinal neovascular membranes. However, collateral damage occurs and scotomas can result when using conventional lasers with pulse duration of 100ms and more. This is particularly relevant for laser treatments of the macula where the main therapeutic effect results from stimulation of the retinal pigment epithelium cells and photoreceptor damage is thought to be an unnecessary side effect. Recent experimental research with new laser devices using much shorter pulse duration has shown that photoreceptor damage can be greatly reduced and the retinal pigment epithelium selectively targeted, hence the term selective retinal pigment epithelium laser therapy (SRT). Investigators hypothesize that SRT is equally effective as standard laser photocoagulation for macular disease but minimizes local visual field defects. In this study, patients with central serous retinopathy, macular edema from diabetic microangiopathy or branch vein occlusion, and non-exudative age-related macular degeneration will be treated with SRT. Patients will be assessed 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of X-82 in the treatment of vision loss due to wet AMD.

This study will assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy of successive intravenous (IV) doses of LFG316 in eligible patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal administration of Fovista® administered in combination with Lucentis® compared to Lucentis® monotherapy in subjects with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Evaluation of efficacy of alprostadil (prostaglandin E1) for treatment of patients suffering from dry age-related macula degeneration

This study will compare the safety and efficacy of Medidur FA treatment in one eye to the sham-treated fellow eye of subjects with geographic atrophy secondary to AMD.

The PDT/Lucentis trial will be a Phase IV comparative trial comparing the use of combination therapy with ITV ranibizumab and verteporfin PDT to ITV ranibizumab alone in patients with exudative AMD.
