Active clinical trials for "Retinal Vein Occlusion"

The purpose of this clinical research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational medication to treat macular edema that persists despite current treatment methods. Participants will be evaluated for improvement in vision and side effects. Macular edema is a condition that affects the back of the eye (retina). It frequently occurs in people who have a history of diabetes, and is also associated with high blood pressure, uveitis, and previous eye surgery. The main symptom of macular edema is decreased vision, generally a blurring of central vision. There are no direct costs to participants for assessments and treatment as defined in the study protocol. All candidates must be available for required scheduled visits during the trial's 6-month follow-up period. Although the disease called age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects the same region of the eye as macular edema, they are not the same condition and AMD is not studied in this research trial.

Provided efficacy and safety data on intravitreal injections of ranibizumab 0.5 mg in patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to BRVO

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of an intravitreal implant of dexamethasone (DDS-25) for the treatment of macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of OZURDEX® (700 µg dexamethasone implant) in patients with macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion.

The study is intended to characterize the clinical benefit regarding safety and efficacy of a long term treatment with Lucentis in comparison with Ozurdex over an additional 6 months and a 3-month follow-up period, following the initial 6-month treatment in the respective core studies CRFB002EDE17 (NCT01396057) and CRFB002EDE18 (NCT01396083).

This is a phase III, double-masked, randomized, active-controlled, parallel-group, 52-week study to assess the efficacy and safety of Intravitreal Aflibercept Injection (IAI;EYLEA®;BAY86-5321) compared to laser treatment in patients with macular edema secondary to BRVO.

The present study provided additional efficacy and safety data for 0.5-mg ranibizumab using as needed (PRN) dosing over 24 months in patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO). Spectral domain high-definition optical coherence tomography (OCT) images was analyzed to gain insights into predictive factors for disease progression and the possibility of reduced monitoring was assessed in Year 2. The results of this open-label study provided long-term safety and efficacy data to further guide recommendations on the use of ranibizumab in this indication.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of LKA651 in patients with macular edema from diabetic macular edema (DME), neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD), or retinal vein occlusions (RVO)

This study will take place in China to evaluate the safety and efficacy of OZURDEX implant 700 μg in the treatment of macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in patients who have never received treatment for RVO.

Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) occurs when the main blood vessel that transports blood away from the retina (the very back portion of the eye) becomes blocked, causing the leakage of fluid into the retina and thereby causing a swelling of the macula (the portion of the retina responsible for fine vision). This swelling is called macular edema. When the macula swells with fluid, central vision becomes blurry. The study drug aflibercept has been shown to reduce the amount of fluid and blood leaked into the retina. It can help to stabilize, and in many cases, improve the vision loss related to CRVO. Aflibercept has been approved for the treatment of macular edema secondary to CRVO in the United States (US), European Union (EU), Japan, and other countries. The study was considered research because, although the study drug was already on the market for macular edema secondary to CRVO, there were no studies available that addressed the questions of what were useful intervals for treating and assessing patients, how did they differ among patients, and how were criteria applied for retreatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness, treatment interval, and safety of the treatment regimen (pattern for administering treatment) in subjects with macular edema secondary to CRVO. In addition, this study explored new imaging methods for assessing the affected eye.
