Study Arms (1)
Patients with macular edema from RAM
EXPERIMENTALIntravitreal aflibercept 2.0 mg injection for eyes meeting eligibility criteria will be administered at baseline. Reinjection of the drug for protocol-defined criteria at least two months after previous injection.
Interventions
Intravitreal injection of 2.0 mg aflibercept at baseline, and repeated no sooner than two months from the previous injection for persistent macular edema as defined in the protocol.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Symptomatic macular edema caused by RAM in one of the eyes. If both eyes are involved, the eye with worse central foveal thickness will be enrolled in the study.
- CFT of 310 microns or more by spectral domain OCT or lipid in the center of the fovea
- Best-corrected visual acuity of 73 to 24 letters.
- Willing and able to comply with clinic visits and study-related procedures.
- Willing to provide informed consent -
You may not qualify if:
- Media opacity
- pre-retinal fibrosis, retinal detachment, vitreo-macular traction
- Infectious keratitis, conjunctivitis, blepharitis or scleritis
- Any ocular surgery during the preceding 3 months.
- aphakia or uncontrolled glaucoma
- subfoveal hemorrhage
- History of systemic or intravitreal anti-VEGF injections, intravitreal steroid injection or implant, or laser treatment to RAM within six months
- Any other ocular disease responsible for decrease in vision.
- Concomitant ocular disease that can cause increase in foveal thickness
- Ocular inflammation from any cause
- Recent (\<3 months) history of a thromboembolic event
- Pregnant or breast feeding women.
- Sexually active men or women of child bearing potential who are unwilling to practice adequate contraception during the study.
