What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability

    Safety and tolerability was assessed by vital signs, clinical laboratory evaluations, ophthalmological examinations, intraocular pressure, the presence of anti-drug antibodies and the collection of adverse events. An adverse event was considered any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease associated with the use of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug. Preexisting conditions that worsened during the study were reported as adverse events.

    Measured: 16 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Best-Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)

    BCVA was measured using an eye chart and was reported as the number of letters read correctly (ranging from 0 to 100 letters) in the study eye at Baseline and Week 16. The lower the number of letters read correctly on the eye chart, the worse the vision (or visual acuity). The higher the letters read correctly on the eye chart the better the vision.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 16

  2. Change From Baseline in Foveal Thickness as Measured by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

    Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT), a laser based non-invasive diagnostic system providing high-resolution imaging sections of the fovea (part of the retina), was performed in the study eye after pupil dilation at Baseline and Week 16. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement (less foveal thickness).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 16

  3. Serum Levels of MP0112

    Blood samples were collected Pre-treatment (Baseline), Day 1 and 3, Weeks 1, 4, 12, 16. Serum samples (liquid portion of the blood after cells and clotting factors were removed) were sent to a laboratory for analysis. Levels of MP0112 were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Measured: 16 Weeks

  4. Aqueous Humor Levels of MP0112

    Aqueous humor (the thin, watery fluid in the eye) samples were collected from anterior chamber taps and were sent to a laboratory for analysis. Levels of MP0112 were determined using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Measured: 1 Week

  5. Number of Participants With Positive Binding Anti-MP0112 Antibodies

    Blood samples were collected Pre-treatment (Baseline) and Weeks 4, 8 and 12. Samples were analyzed for Anti-MP0112 antibodies using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MP0112 in people with Diabetic Macular Edema, run by Allergan at 4 sites in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. 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 phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 May 2014). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: 16 weeks). 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 13 May 2014.
