  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subjects of either sex aged 18 years or over
  • Diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (type 1 or type 2).
  • Best corrected visual acuity in the study eye between ≥34 and ≤73 ETDRS letters at 1m at baseline attributable to diabetic macular edema (DME)

  • Main Exclusion Criteria:
  • Macular ischaemia
  • Macular oedema is considered to be due to a cause other than diabetic macular oedema.
  • Co-existent ocular disease
  • An ocular condition is present (other than diabetes) that, in the opinion of the investigator, might affect macular oedema or alter visual acuity during the course of the study.
  • A substantial cataract that, in the opinion of the investigator, is likely to be decreasing visual acuity by 3 lines or more.

About this study

Official title: A Multicentre Prospective Open-label Randomised Clinical Trial Comparing the Efficacy of Fixed Versus PRN Dosing of 700 μg Dexamethasone Posterior Segment Drug Delivery System (Ozurdex) in Patients With Refractory Diabetic Macular Oedema

Multicentre randomized controlled trial to evaluate whether 5 monthly fixed dosing of 700 µg Dexamethasone Posterior Segment Drug Delivery System (Ozurdex) is as efficacious as Optical coherence tomography (OCT)-guided PRN dosing in patients with refractory diabetic macular edema.

What is being measured

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

  1. The Difference Between Arms in the Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity at 12 Months

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Difference Between Arms in Change From Baseline Composite Scores of the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (VFQ-25).

    NEI VFQ 25 is a questionnaire intended to measure visual function and quality of life. It has 25 questions. The original response of each item are coded as per the NEI VFQ scoring system ranging from 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest).

    Composite score = (Score for each item with a non-missing answer) / Total number of items with non-missing answers 100 = Best, 0 = Worst possible score

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  2. Difference Between Arms in Change in Central Subfield Thickness.

    Central subfield thickness is defined as the average thickness in the central 1mm diameter circle of the ETDRS grid and is measured in microns

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  3. Proportion of Patients With Ocular and Systemic Serious Adverse Events

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Ozurdex in people with Diabetic Macular Edema, run by Moorfields Eye Hospital NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 14 inclusion and 0 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 23 Feb 2017. 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 United Kingdom. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Feb 2017). 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?

The Difference Between Arms in the Change From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity at 12 Months (time frame: Baseline and 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 23 Feb 2017.
