DIABETIC MACULAR EDEMA

This pilot study tests whether a daily probiotic supplement (Lactobacillus plantarum 299v) can reduce retinal swelling and improve vision in people with diabetic macular edema. Thirty-six participants will take the probiotic twice daily for four months. Researchers will measure c…

This Phase 1 trial will test the safety of PRO-169, a form of bevacizumab injected into the eye, in 60 adults with diabetic macular edema. The study checks for immune reactions and side effects. It is not yet recruiting and focuses on safety, not whether it improves vision.

This study tests an oral medication, CU06-1004, for people with diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition that causes vision loss. About 156 participants will take either a low dose, high dose, or placebo pill daily for 24 weeks. The goal is to see if the drug improves vision and…

This study tests two different laser pulse settings (5% vs 15% duty cycle) in 50 adults with diabetic macular edema, a common cause of vision loss in diabetes. The goal is to see which setting is safer and more effective at reducing retinal swelling. Participants must have mild t…

This early-stage study tests a new nose spray version of the drug octreotide for people with diabetic macular edema, a condition that causes vision loss from fluid buildup in the eye. The trial will include 60 adults whose eye swelling has not improved with standard treatments. R…

This study tests an experimental drug called SNP318 in 60 people with diabetic macular edema, a condition that causes vision loss due to swelling in the retina. Participants will receive either the drug or a placebo, and researchers will monitor safety, eye thickness, and vision …

This study will test a new, non-invasive eye scanner called wide field OCTA in 200 people with various eye diseases, including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and dry eye. The goal is to see if this device can provide better images of blood vessels in the …

This study tests if using a cotton-tipped applicator to hold the eyelid open during eye injections is less painful and faster than the standard metal speculum. About 120 adults with certain eye conditions will take part. The goal is to improve comfort and satisfaction without com…

This study will use artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze eye scans from 554 adults with diabetic macular edema (DME). The goal is to see if AI can predict when a person's eye treatment needs to change. Participants will not receive any new treatment; instead, researchers will …

This study tests whether a personalized care approach helps patients with chronic macular diseases (like wet age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema) attend their regular eye injection appointments. Many patients skip these vital treatments, risking further vi…

This study follows 100 adults with diabetic eye disease who are already receiving standard anti-VEGF injections for swelling in the center of the retina. Researchers will use advanced vision tests and imaging to track changes over time. The goal is not to test a new drug, but to …

This study aims to understand how dry eye disease and diabetic macular edema (a swelling in the back of the eye) are related in people with diabetes. About 50 adults with diabetes for over 8 years will have their eyes tested using questionnaires, tear measurements, and imaging. T…

This study will use a special eye scan called OCT to look for early signs of retinal damage in people with diabetes who have no vision problems. Researchers want to see if these scans can detect changes before symptoms appear. About 112 participants will get a detailed eye exam, …
