Active clinical trials for "Macular Edema"

RGX-314 is being developed as a novel, potential one-time gene therapy treatment for the treatment of diabetic retinopathy, a chronic and progressive complication of diabetes mellitus. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a sight-threatening disease characterized in the early stages by neuronal and vascular dysfunction in the retina, and later by neovascularization that leads to further deterioration of functional vision. Despite the availability of current treatments, diabetic retinopathy remains the leading cause of vision loss in working-age adults, those between the ages of 20 and 74. Existing treatment with anti-VEGF agents, although shown to be effective, are limited by short therapeutic half-lives, which then require frequent intravitreal injections over the patient's lifetime, resulting in increased risk of associated adverse events and significant treatment burden. Due to the burden of treatment, patients often do not closely adhere to treatment regimens and experience sub-optimal outcomes and a decline in vision. RGX-314 is being developed as a potential one time treatment for diabetic retinopathy, which may deliver advantages over conventional treatments, such as potentially providing a longer duration of therapeutic effect and intervening at an earlier stage of the disease.

This study will assess a pragmatic, treat and extend regimen of faricimab against the standard of a fixed dosing regimen.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether subthreshold treatment with micropulsed laser can be effective in resolving macular edema in patients with inherited retinal dystrophy. Visits will be performed after 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months after treatment. Laser treatment will be performed on the day of the first visit, and its repetition at subsequent visits between months 3 and 12 will be evaluated. Evaluations of treatment effects will include: comprehensive ophthalmologic examination multifocal electroretinogram OCT examination OCT-angiography examination retinography Primary endpoint. - central retinal thickness, measured by OCT

The objective of this trial is to assess the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of RZ402 in patients with Diabetic Macular Edema.

Assessing eFficacy and Safety of DEXTENZA 0.4 mg inseRt, Following Cataract Surgery

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (RVO). In people with RVO, a blood vessel that carries blood away from the retina (vein) becomes blocked. The retina is the very back part of the eye. The blocked vein causes fluid and blood to leak into the retina and thereby causes a swelling of the macula (the center of the retina responsible for fine vision). This swelling is called macular edema. When a vein in the retina is blocked, the levels of a protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) rises. VEGF helps the growth of new blood vessels. This can lead to macular edema and may cause the vision to become blurry. The study treatment intravitreal (IVT) aflibercept is given as an injection into the eye. It works by blocking VEGF and this can help repair vision problems related to RVO. IVT aflibercept is already available and is prescribed by doctors as the standard of care treatment for macula edema secondary to RVO. Standard of care is a treatment that medical experts consider most appropriate for a disease. Standard of care is given every 4 weeks in people with macula edema secondary to RVO. While repeated injections of aflibercept may prevent worsening of vision, it may place a burden on the patient. However, a higher amount (8 mg) compared to the standard of care (2 mg) of IVT aflibercept is being tested in studies. This higher amount could be given less often. The amount of IVT aflibercept given is measured in milligrams, also known as mg. The main purpose of this study is to learn how well a higher amount of the study treatment aflibercept works in people with macular edema secondary to RVO. To answer this, researchers will measure changes in vision called best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the study participants between study start and after 36 weeks of treatment. Changes will then be compared between those participants who received the higher amount of IVT aflibercept and those that received standard of care. To learn how safe the study treatment is in the participants, the researchers will count the number of participants from study start and up to 64 weeks later that have: adverse events serious adverse events "Adverse events" are any medical problems that the participants have during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think they might be related to the study treatments. An adverse event is considered "serious" when it leads to death, puts the participants' lives at risk, requires hospitalization, causes disability, causes a baby being born with medical problems or is otherwise medically important. Dependent on the treatment group, the participants will either receive the higher amount of aflibercept or standard of care as an intravitreal injection for up to 60 weeks. The study will consist of a test (screening) phase, a treatment phase and an end of study phase. Each participant will be in the study for up to 64 weeks. One visit to the study site is planned during the screening phase, followed by visits approximately every 4 weeks (16 in total) during treatment and one visit at the end of the study. During the study, the study doctors and their team will: check patients' eye health using various eye examination techniques measure patients' eye vision (BCVA) take blood and urine samples do physical examinations check vital signs examine heart health using electrocardiogram (ECG) do pregnancy tests in women of childbearing age In addition, participants will be asked to fill a questionnaire on vision-related quality of life.

Phase III clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, expressed as improvement in visual acuity in patients suffering diabetic macular edema after one year of treatment with PRO-169, compared to treatment with Lucentis® (ranibizumab).

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of RO7200220 in participants with uveitic macular edema.

EYE103-101 is a 2-part study assessing safety and preliminary efficacy of EYE103 in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) given as monotherapy or neovascular macular degeneration (NVAMD) given in combination with anti-VEGF. In the first part, termed the multiple ascending dose (MAD) portion of study, the safety of EYE103 will be assessed at escalating doses. Approximately 12 participants will be entered in this part of the study. In the second part of the study, called the dose finding part two doses of EYE103 will be selected and their effectiveness will be compared. Approximately 80 participants will be entered in this part of the study.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of RC28-E compared with Aflibercept in subjects with diabetic macular edema.
