About this study

Patients with new onset retinal vein occlusion in less than 3 month whom has visual acuity less than 20/40 and central macular thickness more than 250micrometer and non perfused areas of retina more than 10 DD are included in over study and devided into 2 groups randomizely, Group A under gone 3 intravitreal injection of bevacizumab monthly and examine monthly for Visual acuity and central macular thickness, if in month four or more the CMT is more than 250 micrometer and the visual acuity is less than 8/10 the injection is repeated and follow up in this manner is continued until 9 months.

Group B is as the same of group A but patients in this group undergone laser photocoagulation of retinal non perfused areas based on FAG wide field imaging .

After 9 month follow up the outcomes such as Vusal acuity, Central macular thickness, intraocular pressure, neovascular formation are compared,

Being tested
intravitreal injection of bevacizumab, intravitreal injection of bevacizumab+ targeted laser

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing intravitreal injection of bevacizumab and intravitreal injection of bevacizumab+ targeted laser in people with Retinal Vein Occlusion With 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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2018. 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 Alireza Ramezani, 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: Every 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 31 May 2018.
