Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus
  • Diabetes duration ≥ 5 years
  • Aged between 45-75 years-old
  • ETDRS level \< 20 (microaneurysms absent) (50% of enrolled patients) Or ETDRS levels 20 or 35 with presence of at least one microaneurysm in Field 2 between the superior and inferior arcades (50% of enrolled patients) in the Study Eye as determined by the Reading Centre.
  • Informed Consent

You may not qualify if:

  • Previous laser photocoagulation
  • Other diseases which may induce retinal degeneration (e.g. glaucoma)
  • Subject with a refractive error ≥ ± 5 diopter
  • Inadequate ocular media and/ or pupil dilatation that do not permit good quality fundus photography.
  • Renal failure (creatinine \> 1.4 mg/dl)
  • HbA1C \> 10 % in the previous 6 months and at Screening
  • Subjects taking somatostatin or brimonidine, for any indication, in the previous 3 months
  • Subject has a condition or is in a situation which may put the subject at significant risk, may confound the study results or may interfere significantly with the patient's participation in the study.
  • Pregnancy or nursing
  • Hypersensitivity to the active substances to be tested or to any of the excipients
  • Subject receiving systemic monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor therapy or antidepressants which affect noradrenergic transmission (e.g. tricyclic antidepressants and mianserin)
