About this study

Official title: Review Study: A Retrospective Noninterventional Study to Assess the EffectiVeness of exIsting Anti-vascular Endothelial groWth Factor (Anti-VEGF) Treatment Regimens in Patients With Wet Age-related Macular Degeneration

Retrospective, non-interventional, observational multi-center field study. Patients diagnosed with wet Age-related macular degeneration (wAMD) and having started treatment with ranibizumab between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009 must be consecutively screened and, if eligible, enrolled. Patients will be followed up at maximum until December 31, 2011. Switch to any other Anti vascular endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) treatment will be documented. For each patient, demographics, medical history, administered treatments, results of ocular and visual assessments and other tests (where available) will be documented.

What is being measured

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

  1. Changes in visual acuity after start of Anti vascular endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) therapy with ranibizumab, assessed by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy (ETDRS) or Snellen chard

    Measured: Baseline and 24 months

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Demographic characteristics of patients included in the study (Age, Sex, Race)

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Mean time from first clinical presentation to diagnosis

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Mean time from diagnosis to treatment

    Measured: Time from diagnosis to treatment: Up to 24 months

  4. Mean time from diagnosis to end of follow-up

    Measured: Time from diagnosis to end of follow-up: up to 48 months

  5. Mean change of visual acuity, from diagnosis to end of follow-up, assessed by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy (ETDRS) or Snellen chart

    Measured: Baseline and 24 months

  6. Mean change of retinal thickness from diagnosis to end of follow-up, assessed by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

    Measured: Baseline and 24 months

  7. Mean change of lesion size from diagnosis to end of follow-up, assessed by Fluorescein Angiography (FA)

    Measured: Baseline and 24 months

  8. Average number of treatments given from diagnosis to end of follow-up

    Measured: After 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

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

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 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2014. 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 Portugal. 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?

Changes in visual acuity after start of Anti vascular endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) therapy with ranibizumab, assessed by Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy (ETDRS) or Snellen chard (time frame: Baseline and 24 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 Oct 2014.
