About this study

Official title: Prospective, Randomized Study Comparing Two Populations of Patients Treated With Anti VEGF for Diabetic Macular Edema, One Being Followed at the Hospital and the Other One Being Followed at Home Using a Software Allowing Self-assessment of Visual Acuity

Verify the reliability of VA measured every week at home, by the patient using a TC, compared to the reliability of VA also measured by the patient using a TC but every 2 month at the hospital, during standard DME follow-up visits

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Rate of patients with VA evolution in the two groups

    rate in percentage

    Measured: 36 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Variation of the VA measured using ETDRS scale on TC for the patients followed at home

    Measured: 36 months

  2. Variation of the VA measured using ETDRS scale on TC for the patients followed at the hospital

    Measured: 36 months

  3. Number of follow-up and injection visits for each patient according to their group

    Measured: 36 months

  4. Average time between the follow-up visit and the IVT (if performed)

    in days

    Measured: 36 months

  5. Variations in foveolar thickness and maximum central retinal thickness on OCT

    Measured: 36 months

  6. Change in quality of life for patients in group 1 compared to group 2

    the quality of life is assessed with EQ-5D-5L questionnaire

    Measured: 36 months

  7. Change in the total cost per patient for patient in group 1 compared to group 2.

    The total cost per patient is calculated from the number of follow-up visits, the number of procedures (OCT and fundus retinography) and the number of IVTs.

    Measured: 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing telemedecine follow-up in people with Diabetic Macular Edema, run by Hospital St. Joseph, Marseille, France at 1 site in France.

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 9 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 1 Mar 2021. 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 France. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Cecile Bielmann (0033 (0)4 88 73 10 70, cbielmann@hopital-saint-joseph.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rate of patients with VA evolution in the two groups (time frame: 36 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 1 Mar 2021.
