What is being measured

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

  1. Frequency of aflibercept administration

    To assess the frequency of clinic visits over a 1 year period in VEGF inhibitor naive wet AMD patients managed in 'real world' clinic settings.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Frequency of clinic visits

    To assess how frequently aflibercept is administered over a 2 year period to VEGF inhibitor naive wet AMD patients managed in 'real world' clinic settings and to determine how frequently these subjects are seen in the clinic.

    Measured: Up to 1 year

  2. Aflibercept Administration

    To assess how frequently aflibercept is administered over 1 year and 2 year periods to prior treated VEGF inhibitor treated wet AMD subjects managed in 'real world' clinic settings and to determine how frequently these subjects are seen in the clinic.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  3. Changes in visual acuity from baseline

    To assess how visual acuity changes over 1 year and 2 year periods in both VEGF inhibitor naive and prior treated wet AMD subjects that receive aflibercept.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  4. Change in central retinal thickness from baseline

    To assess how central retinal thickness (CRT) changes as determined by optical coherence tomography OCT) over a 1 year and 2 year period in both VEGF inhibitor naive and prior treated wet AMD subjects that receive aflibercept

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Wet Age-related Macular Degeneration, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 17 sites 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 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

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 was stopped early. 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?

Frequency of aflibercept administration (time frame: Up to 1 year). 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 28 Feb 2017.
