Clinical Details
Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Brimonidine Tartrate Posterior Segment Drug Delivery System in Improving Visual Function
Study design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Outcomes Assessor), Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Primary outcome: Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)
Secondary outcome: Mean BCVA change from baseline
Eligibility
Minimum age: 18 Years.
Maximum age: N/A.
Gender(s): Both.
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- The macula-off retinal detachment must have been caused by a rupture (rhegmatogenous
in etiology)
- The repair of the macula-off retinal detachment must have occurred at least 6 months
before the Day 1 visit in the study eye
- The repair must have been deemed an anatomic success and required no more than one
macular re-attachment procedure
- The visual acuity score must be between 20/50 and 20/320 in the study eye
Exclusion Criteria:
- Any sight-threatening ocular condition in the study eye other than the ruptured
retinal detachment
- Anticipated need for ocular surgery during the 12-month study period
- Any injectable, periocular, or intravitreal corticosteroid treatment to study eye
within 6 months prior to screening (eg, triamcinolone acetonide)
- Any injectable, periocular, or intravitreal anti-VEGF treatment to the study eye
within 3 months prior to screening (eg, Avastin or Lucentis)
- Any infectious condition in the study eye
