Who may be able to join

  • Age: >= 18 years of age

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean change of visual acuity.

    Treatment in naïve and previously treated patients for wAMD and DME.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Change of visual acuity.

    For the overall population

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  2. Change of visual acuity by number of Injections.

    In 2 sub groups

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  3. Change in Retinal thickness.

    Measured: Baseline and 12 months

  4. Treatment patterns used in routine clinical practice setting.

    Number of visits and examinations per patient

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  5. Maximum interval between treatments.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  6. Mean time between injections.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  7. Number of injections at 12 months.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  8. Time to achieve stability of disease.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  9. Number of injections in a year to achieve stability of disease.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  10. In previously treated subpopulation duration of previous treatments

    Measured: At Baseline

  11. In previously treated subpopulation type of previous treatments.

    Measured: At Baseline

  12. In previously treated subpopulation reason to switch to Eylea.

    Some of the reasons are recurrence of fluid, new hemorrhage - bleed, decreased vision, lack of compliance, patient request, etc.

    Measured: At Baseline

  13. Proportion of patients with no fluid determined by Optical coherence tomography (OCT).

    Absence of fluid would be determined by physician's judgment in the AMD population.

    Measured: At 4 months, At 12 months

  14. Numbers of patients require adjunctive therapies.

    For Diabetic macular edema patients

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  15. Type of adjunctive therapies required by patients

    For Diabetic macular edema patients adjunctive therapies as focal laser, steroids, etc.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  16. Number of participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

  17. Presence of pigment epithelial detachment (PED) (Y/N)

    For Age-related macular degeneration patients.

    Measured: Baseline and at 12 months

  18. Diabetic retinopathy severity (mild, moderate, severe).

    For Diabetic macular edema patients.

    Measured: Up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Wet Macular Degeneration, run by Bayer at 1 site in Canada.

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

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Feb 2019. 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 Canada. 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.

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?

Mean change of visual acuity. (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 15 Feb 2019.
