Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 50 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Previous enrollment in the study evaluating 2.0mg ranibizumab (NCT 01189019) without early study discontinuation. The last treatment* in the study eye should have been received at least 30 days before enrollment in this study.
  • last study treatment of either 1.0mg or 2.0mg ranibizumab
  • Presence of persistent fibrovascular pigment epithelial detachment Willing and able to comply iwth clinic visits and study related procedures Provide signed informed consent

Who cannot join

  • Prior treatment with verteporfin, or external beam radiation therapy, or transpupillary thermotherapy in the study eye.
  • Previous subfoveal focal laser photocoagulation involving the foveal center in the study eye.
  • History of vitrectomy, submacular surgery, or other surgical intervention for AMD in the study eye.
  • Concurrent eye disease in the study eye that could compromise visual acuity (e.g. diabetic retinopathy, advanced glaucoma).
  • Any concurrent intraocular condition in the study eye (e.g. diabetic retinopathy or glaucoma) that, in the opinion of the investigator, could either require medical or surgical intervention during the 12 month study period to prevent or treat visual loss that might result from that condition, or if allowed to progress untreated, could likely contribute to loss of at least 2 Snellen equivalent lines of best corrected visual acuity over the 12 month study period.
  • Active intraocular inflammation (grade trace or above) in the study eye, or history of idiopathic or auto-immune associated uveitis in either eye.
Show all 14Show fewer
  • Current vitreous hemorrhage in the study eye.
  • History of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment or macular hole (stage 3 or 4) in the study eye.
  • Active infectious conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis, or endophthalmitis in either eye.
  • Aphakia, anterior chamber intraocular lens (ACIOL) or unstable posterior chamber intraocular lens (PCIOL).
  • Uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye (defined as intraocular pressure equal to or greater than 30 despite treatment with anti-glaucoma medication).
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
  • Sexually active men* or women of childbearing potential** who are unwilling to practice adequate contraception during the study (adequate contraception measures include stable use of oral contraceptives or other prescription pharmaceutical contraceptives for 2 or more menstrual cycles prior to screening; intrauterine device (IUD); bilateral tubal ligation; vasectomy; condom plus contraceptive sponge, foam, or jelly, or diaphragm plus contraceptive sponge, foam or jelly).
  • Contraception is not required for men with documented vasectomy. **Postmenopausal women must be amenorrheic for at least 12 months in order not to be considered of child bearing potential. Pregnancy testing and contraception are not required for women with documented hysterectomy or tubal ligation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Aflibercept in people with Age Related Macular Degeneration and Pigment Epithelial Detachment, run by Tennessee Retina at 3 sites in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Oct 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Proportion of patients with flattening of PED (time frame: 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 29 Oct 2014.
