Active clinical trials for "Retinal Diseases"

This study is a retrospective study to assess the efficacy and accuracy of the EyeCheckup software in screening for diabetic retinopathy in healthcare settings.

The purpose of the study is to investigate novel electroretinography (ERG) devices in the detection of hydroxychloroquine retinopathy. Two devices (the RETEval full-field and flicker ERG and UTAS multifocal ERG) will be evaluated in this study, comparing device outputs to standard of care screening tests, in groups of participants characterised by presence or absence of hydroxychloroquine-related retinopathy.

The aim of our study was to determine whether a low dose of 0.3125mg intravitreal bevacizumab is effective in treatment of type 1 ROP as the standard 0.625 mg dose., regarding : Serum Systemic VEGF levels. Retinal Vascularization.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety outcomes following short-term exposure to rhIGF-1/rhIGFBP-3 versus standard neonatal care in Study ROPP-2008-01 (NCT01096784).

The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the ability of Eylea to induce a regression of PED height on patients previously extensively treated by Lucentis. The regimen proposed for this study is the 3 monthly injection followed by a 6 weeks interval injection until week 26.

This study is designed as an exploratory study to assess safety and efficacy of two different doses of the anti-VEGF agent ranibizumab (0.12 mg vs. 0.20 mg) in the treatment of infants with retinopathy of prematurity. Furthermore it shall help to improve safety in the treatment of ROP and provide explorative data on long-term effects of ranibizumab after intravitreal injection in neonates. The primary objective is to assess clinical efficacy of ranibizumab in children with ROP

The present study is intended to evaluate the safety and tolerability of topical OC-10X Ophthalmic Suspension in healthy human subjects. OcuCure Therapeutics, Inc. (Roanoke, VA) has developed a lead compound, known as OC-10X, which is a selective tubulin inhibitor under development for the treatment of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR) and Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). When administered as a topical eye drop, OC-10X has demonstrated both anti-angiogenic (inhibition) and angiolytic (regression) properties in animal models of AMD. Unlike other therapies, OC-10X provides the efficacy of a vascular targeting agent without the traditional toxicity and works downstream independently of growth factors. As demonstrated by OcuCure's preclinical data, tubulin inhibition using OC-10X has promise as a new therapeutic approach. PDR is a major cause of blindness in adults and is also caused by the growth of abnormal blood vessels. These new blood vessels are fragile and may hemorrhage into the vitreous. PDR affects up to 80% of all diabetics who have had diabetes for 15 years or more. If administration of OC-10X is well tolerated as a topical eye drop and is well tolerated systemically, then OC-10X will have the potential to provide benefits to patients with ocular diseases associated with angiogenesis.

To assess the safety of intravitreal aflibercept injection in the treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) by evaluating the incidence and severity of adverse events.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of anti-VEGF drug (Avastin) adminstration in eyes prior to surgical treatment for Traction retinal detachment (TRD) in patients with Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR).

The primary objective of the protocol is to determine if visual acuity outcomes at 2 years in eyes with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) that receive anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy with deferred panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) are non-inferior to those in eyes that receive standard prompt PRP therapy. Secondary objectives include: Comparing other visual function outcomes (including Humphrey visual field testing and study participant self-reports of visual function) in eyes receiving anti-VEGF with deferred PRP with those in eyes receiving prompt PRP. Determining percent of eyes not requiring PRP when anti-VEGF is given in the absence of prompt PRP. Comparing safety outcomes between treatment groups. Comparing associated treatment and follow-up exam costs between treatment groups.
