Active clinical trials for "Macular Degeneration"

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of transpalpebral microcurrent stimulation as a therapy for dry age-related macular degeneration. Participants are assessed at baseline for visual acuity and treated for 4 consecutive days for a total of 8 sessions (2 per day) with microcurrent stimulation. A follow-up visit is conducted to evaluate the participant and collect follow-up visual acuity.

Patients who develop macular diseases have several clinical complications,such as central vision loss, the central scotoma of the visual field, the decrease of reading speed and fixation stability. At present, there is still no satisfactory effect in the prevention and treatment of advanced macular disease. A new rehabitation strategy named microperimetric biofeedback training has been shown to be effective in improving patients' visual appearance, but there is no consensus regarding the optimal methodology and standard of practice. Therefore, we designed a prospective clinical study to verify the effectiveness of MBFT and to determine an optimal plan.

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.

This multiple-center, multiple-dose and regimen, randomized, double-masked active comparator-controlled, double-masked, five parallel group, 36-week study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of faricimab (RO6867461) in participants with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The study was designed to allow the evaluation of RO6867461 in a treatment-naive population (comparison of Arms A, B, C, and D) and an anti-VEGF-incomplete responder population that met a predefined criterion at Week 12 (comparison between Arms A and E). Only one eye per participant was chosen as the study eye.

Assess the effectiveness of externally applied micro current electrical stimulation on improving the ETDRS visual acuity in subjects with vision loss from dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether metformin, an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of type II diabetes, is a safe and effective treatment to decrease the progression of geographic atrophy in non-diabetic patients with Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ranibizumab in patients affected by wet age related macular degeneration (wAMD).

Effects of VEGF Trap-Eye (aflibercept) in treatment-naive polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) will be evaluated.

This study will evaluate and compare two individualized ranibizumab treatment regimens in patients with neovascular (wet) AMD aiming to achieve and to maintain a maximum visual function benefit, while aiming to avoid unnecessary intravitreal injections. The results will be used to generate further recommendations on functional and anatomical monitoring of the disease and timing of treatment administration for patients with neovascular AMD. In this context, the study will investigate the utility of optical coherence tomography (OCT) to aid retreatment decisions with ranibizumab.

Primary Objectives: To assess the efficacy of intravitreal administered Eylea in preventing visual loss in subjects with a retinal pigment epithelial detachment (PED) subtype of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD) measured by mean change in BCVA at Month 12 compared to Baseline. Secondary Objectives: To assess the safety and tolerability of repeated intravitreal administration of Eylea in subjects with the PED subtype of neovascular AMD for a period of 1 year To assess the effect of repeated intravitreal administration of Eylea on Central Subfield Thickness (CSFT), Central Subfield Volume (CSFV), and PED height and volume. To assess the effect of repeated intravitreal administration of Eylea on vision related quality of life in subjects with PED study type of neovascular AMD assessed using the NEI/VFQ-25 questionnaire
