Active clinical trials for "Neovascularization, Pathologic"

The leading risk factor for corneal transplant rejection is abnormal blood vessel growth of the host bed. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is thought to be a mediator of this corneal neovascularization (NV), therefore we would like to test the safety and efficacy of local VEGF blockade in the promotion of graft survival in high risk corneal transplants.

This study is designed to provide efficacy and safety data in patients with choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) secondary to myopia using an individualized as-needed (PRN) dosing schedule. Eligible patients who have provided written agreement to take part in the study will receive an intravitreal (into the study eye) injection of ranibizumab 0.5mg. Following eye examinations and tests at monthly clinic visits, the study doctor will repeat the injections on a monthly basis as required for an additional 11 months, in accordance with specified retreatment criteria. Patients will be in the study for approximately 12 months and will visit the hospital clinic 14 times over that period. The main assessments will include visual acuity tests, eye examinations, optical coherence tomography (OCT) to assess retinal thickness, fundus photography and fluorescein angiography (FA), measurement of intraocular pressure, blood pressure and pulse measurements and completion of health-related questionnaires'.

The primary objective of this protocol is to look at whether Lucentis (ranibizumab) is safe and effective when used for macular edema (retinal swelling) due to Eales' disease. The secondary objective is to see if macular edema comes back within three months after the last dose of study drug is given.

This was an open-label, multicenter, extension study of intravitreally administered ranibizumab in two cohorts. The first cohort (reported here) enrolled patients with primary or recurrent Choroidal Neovascularization (CNV) secondary to Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD) who completed the treatment phase of a Genentech sponsored study (FVF2598g (NCT00056836), FVF2587g (NCT00061594), or FVF2428g (NCT00056823)). The second cohort enrolled patients with macular edema secondary to Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO) who completed the 6-month treatment and 6-month observation phases (12 months total) of a Genentech sponsored study (FVF4165g (NCT00486018) or FVF4166g (NCT00485836)). The results of the second cohort are reported separately (NCT01442064). The first cohort of this study enrolled two subsets of patients: ranibizumab experienced and ranibizumab-naive. Patients were enrolled within 14 days of completion of the 24 month treatment phase of the previous study.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the combination treatments in wet age-related macular degeneration. The combination treatment consists of verteporfin photodynamic therapy and either triamcinolone acetonide or pegaptanib added as an intravitreal injection.

This is a Phase IIIb, single-masked, 1-year multicenter study of the safety and tolerability of intravitreally administered ranibizumab in subjects with active subfoveal CNV secondary to AMD.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether the anti-VEGF drug is effective at stabilizing and/or improving vision in patients with the wet form of AMD

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.

Neovascularization Induced by Mechanical Barrier disrUption and Systemic erythropoietin in patients with cerebral perfusion deficits (NIMBUS trial)

To demonstrate the efficacy of ranibizumab in combination with reduced-fluence verteporfin photodynamic therapy (RF-PDT) in patients with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to pathologic myopia (PM).
