About this study

Official title: Intravitreal Bevacizumab for Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy With New Dense Vitreous Hemorrhage After Full Panretinal Photocoagulation

To evaluate the efficacy of intravitreal bevacizumab injections for treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) with new dense vitreous hemorrhage (VH) after previous full panretinal photocoagulation (PRP).

Read the detailed description

The investigators will carry out a prospective study in patients with PDR and prior complete laser treatment who presented with new dense VH. All eyes will be treated with intravitreal injection of bevacizumab (1.25 mg). Complete ophthalmic examination and/or ocular ultrasonography will be performed at baseline and 1, 6, 12 weeks and 6, 9, 12 months after first injection. Re-injection will be done in non-clearing and recurrent VH.

What is being measured

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

  1. The percentage of eyes that vitreous hemorrhage has been completely resolved

    The patients with PDR and prior complete laser treatment who presented with new dense VH. All eyes were treated with intravitreal bevacizumab injection. Complete ophthalmic examination and/or ocular ultrasonography were performed at baseline and 1, 6, 12 weeks and 6, 9, 12 months after first injection.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) from baseline

    The best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was performed at baseline and 1, 6, 12 weeks and 6, 9, 12 months after first injection.

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing intravitreal injection of bevacizumab in people with Vitreous Hemorrhage and Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Khon Kaen University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 4 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 26 Apr 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. 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?

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 percentage of eyes that vitreous hemorrhage has been completely resolved (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 26 Apr 2013; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
