What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) at Final Visit

    Visual acuity (VA) measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. Decimal VA data presented as Logarithm of Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR), logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss, while negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts (85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results were based on study eye for which medication was given.

    Measured: Baseline, Final Visit (Week 104 or early termination [ET])

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) at Each Visit

    VA measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. Decimal VA data presented as logMAR, logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss, while negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts (85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results were based on study eye for which medication was given.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102

  2. Number of Participants With Change in Visual Acuity (VA) as Compared to Previous Examination

    VA measured as viewing distance (distance for participant/distance for normal vision). Viewing distance considered as fraction to calculate decimal VA. logMAR= -log10 (decimal VA). It measures VA loss; positive values indicated vision loss,negative values denote normal/better VA and allowed comparison of data using different viewing distances and/or different charts(85 or 100 letters, 85 letter equivalents to decimal VA of 1.0). Results based on study eye for which medication was given. Number of participants with VA improved, unchanged or worsened as compared to previous examination reported.

    Measured: Week 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96, 102

  3. Physician's Assessment of Efficacy

    Efficacy was based on the study eye for which pegaptanib treatment was given. Number of participants with each grade of efficacy of treatment, as assessed by the physician was reported on the 5 point categorical scale: excellent, very good, good, fair, poor.

    Measured: Week 104 or End of study (EOS)

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change From Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) at Final Visit (time frame: Baseline, Final Visit (Week 104 or early termination [ET])). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
