NCT00105027

Brief Summary

The SCORE Study will compare the effectiveness and safety of standard care to intravitreal injection(s) of triamcinolone for treating macular edema (swelling of the central part of the retina) associated with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The Number of Study Participants Experiencing an Improvement by 15 or More Letters From Baseline in Best-corrected ETDRS Visual Acuity Score at the 12-month Visit

    Visual acuity testing was done using electronic Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (E-ETDRS) visual acuity testing at 3 meters using the Electronic Visual Acuity Tester by a SCORE certified technician. A masked visual acuity examiner with no knowledge of treatment assignments performed visual acuity testing at the 4-month, 12-month, 24-month and 36-month visits. An E-ETDRS visual acuity score of 85 is approximately 20/20, and a score of 20 letters is approximately 20/400. A visual acuity letter score change of 15 is about three lines on a vision chart.

    Change from baseline to 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Changes From Baseline in Best-corrected ETDRS Visual Acuity Score

    12 months

  • Changes in Retinal Thickness as Assessed by Stereoscopic Color Fundus Photography and Optical Coherence Tomography

    12 months

  • Adverse Ocular Outcomes

    12 months
