Active clinical trials for "Macular Edema"

The objective of this study is to determine if twice-daily dosing of prednisolone (Pred Forte) is as effective as four-times-daily dosing of prednisolone for the prevention of retinal thickening and cystoid macular edema (CME) when either regimen is used concomitantly with twice-daily bromfenac.

Diabetic eye disease remains a major cause of visual loss for individuals with type 1 diabetes, despite currently available treatments. Preliminary studies indicate that islet cell transplantation, a new treatment for type 1 diabetes, may be beneficial for some people. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that islet cell transplantation is more effective than current medical therapy in preventing the progression of diabetic eye disease.

The purposes of this study is to determine if combination reduced fluence photodynamic therapy and Ranibizumab has: Similar efficacy to Ranibizumab (Lucentis) alone. The ability to reduce the number of intravitreal injection of Ranibizumab or a 13 month period The ability to reduce the number of PDT treatments. The study will also collect information on the safety of combination therapy and single therapy.

Understanding and modulating fluid parameters is an important, but often overlooked aspect of phacoemulsification. In a previous study we compared the impact of using high fluid parameters versus low fluidic parameters on real-time IOP measured during phacoemulsification. The investigators found that using high parameters resulted in a higher absolute rise in IOP as well as higher fluctuations in the IOP when compared to low parameters. Clinically these higher fluctuations in IOP would translate in a higher chamber instability. Based on the results of this study, the investigators decided to take it further and study the impact of using high parameters (and thus, higher chamber instability) on macular edema and thickness following surgery, in an otherwise uncomplicated surgery. Higher fluid parameters during phacoemulsification predisposes the eye to increased macular thickness

COLLIDE is a multi-center, open-label, 1:1 randomized study looking at the effects of aflibercept (AFL; 2.0mg) plus OZURDEX (DEX; 0.7mg) implant combination therapy versus DEX monotherapy in phakic or pseudophakic eyes with center-involved DME that have demonstrated prior incomplete response to 3-6 anti-VEGF treatment in 3-9 months. The primary outcome will be 24 week central subfield thickness. Secondary outcomes include the change in ETDRS BCVA letters, number of re-injections and re-injection interval, proportion of eyes with 15- and 10- ETDRS letter gained/lost, proportion of eyes with PDR as per Optos color and FA at the study completion (24+/- 2 weeks) and OCT and OCT angiography biomarkers.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of intravitreal aflibercept injections administered in a treat and extend fashion in eyes that have persistent center involved diabetic macular edema following at least 4 intravitreal injections of 0.3 mg ranibizumab over 24 weeks.

The primary objective is to investigate and characterize the intraocular pharmacokinetics (free and bound) following intravitreal aflibercept injection (IAI) in vitrectomized and non-vitrectomized eyes with diabetic macular edema The secondary objectives are to - Investigate and characterize plasma concentrations (free and bound) following injections of intravitreal aflibercept in vitrectomized and non-vitrectomized eyes with diabetic macular edema Correlate with changes in ocular concentration of drug over 12 months - change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) change in Central Retinal Thickness (CRT) change in Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale (DRSS) changes observed on Ocular coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) number of injections Evaluate ocular and systemic safety of intravitreal aflibercept Additional plasma and anterior chamber (AC) fluid cytokine analysis will be performed if sufficient samples are available

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of using the Oxulumis® microcatheterization device to administer Triesence® to the suprachoroidal space in participants with DME.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics of up to 3 dose levels of EBI-031 given as an intravitreal injection in subjects with diabetic macular edema. There are two arms to the study, a single dose arm (1 dose) and a repeat dose arm (1 dose each month for 3 months). Eligible subjects will initially enroll in the single dose arm and 3 to 6 subjects will be dosed at each of the 3 dose levels. Safety will be assessed over the 28 days after the single dose prior to moving to the next higher dose level. Once all subjects in the single dose arm have been dosed with EBI-031 and the safety has been assessed eligible subjects will begin enrolling in the repeat dose arm. Subjects in the repeat dose arm will receive one dose each month for 3 months and will be assessed for safety. Escalation to the next higher dose will occur once it is determined safe to proceed to the next dose level. Six subjects will be dosed at each of the 3 dose levels.

To determine the safety and efficacy of intravitreal Aflibercept (Eylea) injection in patients with diabetic retinopathy in the prevention of macular edema following cataract surgery.
