What is being measured

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

  1. Time to OZURDEX® Re-injection

    Time to OZURDEX® re-injection is the time in days between the first and second OZURDEX® injections.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) 7 to 12 Weeks Following the Last Injection

    BCVA was assessed using the Snellen eye chart converted to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study number of letters ranging from 0 (worse) to 100 (best). The change in BCVA was calculated using the most improved number of letters read correctly between 7 and 12 weeks following the last injection of OZURDEX® - the number of letters read correctly at baseline. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, 7 to 12 weeks following the last injection

  2. Percentage of Patients With an Increase of 2 Lines or More in BCVA

    BCVA was assessed using the Snellen eye chart converted to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study number of lines ranging from 0 (worse) to 20 (best). An increase of 2 or more lines read correctly compared to baseline is an improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 12 months

  3. Percentage of Patients With an Increase of 3 Lines or More in BCVA

    BCVA was assessed using the Snellen eye chart converted to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study number of lines ranging from 0 (worse) to 20 (best). An increase of 3 or more lines read correctly compared to baseline is an improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 12 months

  4. Change From Baseline in Central Retinal Thickness by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) 7 to 12 Weeks Following the Last Injection

    Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), a laser based non-invasive diagnostic system providing high-resolution imaging sections of the retina, was performed in the study eye after pupil dilation at baseline and 7 to 12 weeks after the last injection. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, 7 to 12 weeks following the last injection

  5. Time to Improvement of 2 Lines or More in BCVA

    Time to improvement of 2 lines or more in BCVA is defined as the number of days after the first injection of OZURDEX® to achieve an improvement of 2 or more lines read correctly compared to baseline. BCVA was assessed using the Snellen eye chart converted to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study number of lines ranging from 0 (worse) to 20 (best).

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 12 months

  6. Time to Improvement of 3 Lines or More in BCVA

    Time to improvement of 3 lines or more in BCVA is defined as the number of days after the first injection of OZURDEX® to achieve an improvement of 3 or more lines read correctly compared to baseline. BCVA was assessed using the Snellen eye chart converted to Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study number of lines ranging from 0 (worse) to 20 (best).

    Measured: Baseline, Up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Macular Edema, run by Allergan at 1 site in Germany.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Feb 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Time to OZURDEX® Re-injection (time frame: Up to 12 months). 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?

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 18 Feb 2013.
