About this study

Official title: The Comparison Between the Therapeutic Effect of Intravitreal Bevacizumab and Ziv-aflibercept in Diabetic Macular Edema

In this double clinical trial 132 patient with the history of DME (Diabetic Macular Edema) to receive intravitreous bevacizumab at a dose of 1.25mg (44 patient) , ziv-aflibercept at dose of 1.25 mg (44 patient) , ziv-aflibercept at dose of 2.5 mg (44 patient) .

The study drugs were administered as often as every 4 weeks for 3 months.monitoring of best-corrected visual acuity, CST ( Central Subfield Thickness) by OCT (Optical coherence tomography) was done from base line ,4 weeks, 8weeks after injection.

Being tested
bevacizumab, ziv-aflibercept 1.25 mg, ziv-aflibercept 2.5mg

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing bevacizumab, ziv-aflibercept 1.25 mg and ziv-aflibercept 2.5mg in people with Diabetic Macular Edema, run by Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 5 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 5 Jan 2016. 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 Iran. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Masoud Soheilian, MD (009822591616, labbafi@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

visual acuity (time frame: until 6 month). 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 5 Jan 2016.
