Active clinical trials for "Macular Edema"

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of suprachoroidal CLS-TA used with intravitreal aflibercept in subjects with DME.

The goal of this pilot study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of micropulse (MP) macular laser in combination with intravitreal aflibercept for the treatment of centre-involved diabetic macular edema.

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 is designed to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of suprachoroidal CLS-TA alone or in combination with intravitreal aflibercept in subjects with diabetic macular edema associated with diabetes mellitus.

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.

Patients with diabetic macular edema (DME) or uveitis-related macular edema who have failed first-line therapy such as anti-VEGF, laser treatments, or dexamethasone implants (DXM) are candidates for treatment with an intravitreal injection of a fluocinolone acetonide (AcF) implant. AcF is unique in that it delivers intravitreal corticosteroids for 2 to 3 years, whereas DXM only releases them for 3 to 6 months. After 6 months for AcF and 1 month for DXM, full therapeutic efficacy is attained. AcF's safety and efficacy have now been confirmed in the FAME originator studies as well as other phase IV investigations. However, in the FAME princeps trials and numerous phase IV trials where patients got AcF more than 6 months after DXM, up to 40% of patients required laser, anti-VEGF, and/or DXM retreatment within the AcF active period. This high rate could be attributed to AcF's 6-month delay in reaching full efficacy. This is why the investigators intended to replicate the previous Iluvi1-month research, which shown that injecting DXM at 1 month preserved visual acuity and central retinal thickness for the first 6 months without increasing intraocular pressure significantly. The study, however, was unable to determine the long-term impact on the rate of relapses requiring additional therapy as well as tolerance with the development of long-term cortisone-induced glaucoma. In light of this, the investigators should like to gather new data for a 3-year follow-up after AcF injection, including measurements of optic nerve fibre thickness (OCT RNFL). This is an essential safety data point because it assesses the long-term effects of ocular hypertension, which is a well-known side effect of intravitreal corticosteroids.

The study will evaluate the safety of ophthalmic bevacizumab in subjects diagnosed with a retinal condition that would benefit from treatment with intravitreal injection of bevacizumab, including: exudative age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, or branch retinal vein occlusion.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of APX3330 to treat diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME).

This study is intended to assess the exposure, safety, biological activity, and durability of UBX1325, a phosphate pro-drug, and its active parent molecule (UBX0601) following a single intravitreal (IVT) injection of UBX1325 in patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).
