Trial summary

Macular edema remains a major cause of vision impairment in diabetic patients. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial and incompletely understood. Systemic factors seam to play a role in this pathogenesis, including high blood pressure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of High Blood Pressure and Sleep Apnea in Type 2 Diabetic Macular Edema

Macular edema remains a major cause of vision impairment in diabetic patients. Its pathogenesis is multifactorial and incompletely understood. Systemic factors seam to play a role in this pathogenesis, including high blood pressure. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of an intensified intervention on blood pressure and sleep apnea with that of conventional treatment in patients with type 2 diabetes and diabetic macular edema.

Read the detailed description

Patients with type 2 diabetes and macular edema involving the center of the macula in both eyes will be randomly assigned to receive conventional treatment in accordance with national guidelines or to receive intensive treatment, with a systematic screening for sleep apnea and /or uncontrolled high blood pressure, and intensified intervention on both anomalies if detected. The primary outcome will be the percentage of patients having a sustained 50% or more-decrease in retinal thickening at 1 year. Secondary outcomes will be the percentage of patients having a 2 ETDRS lines or more-increase in visual acuity at one year, number of ocular interventions in each group, prevalence of sleep apnea and uncontrolled high blood pressure in the intervention group.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • high blood pressure treatmentBehavioural

    over one 14 month period: strongly recommended hygiene-dietetic measurements, complete assessment with ambulatory measurement of the blood pressure in D0, 3 and 12 months, a therapeutic strategy according to the results, and control every 3 months

  • sleep apnea treatmentBehavioural

    over one 14 month period: complete assessment with night polysomnography in D0, 3 and 12 months, a therapeutic strategy according to the results, and control every 3 months

  • diabetic macular edema treatmentBehavioural

    over one 14 month period: control every 3 months, treatments by laser (focal or grid) are authorized until 9 months, treatments by injections are authorized until 6 months

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary outcome will be the percentage of patients having a sustained 50% or more-decrease in retinal thickening at 1 year, assessed with OCT in the study eye.

    Measured: M13

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Percentage of patients having a 2 ETDRS lines or more-increase in visual acuity at one year in the study eye

    Measured: M13

  2. Number of ocular interventions (laser photocoagulation, intra ocular injections) in each group at one year in the study eye

    Measured: M6-9

  3. Progression of diabetic retinopathy in each group at one year according to the International DR classification in the study eye

    Measured: M13

  4. Comparison of blood pressure in each group at one year

    Measured: M13

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing high blood pressure treatment, sleep apnea treatment and diabetic macular edema treatment in people with Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 5 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The primary outcome will be the percentage of patients having a sustained 50% or more-decrease in retinal thickening at 1 year, assessed with OCT in the study eye. (time frame: M13). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00970723, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Apr 2014.
