NCT ID NCT07449923
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 04, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests a new medicine, EYP-1901, given as an eye injection to people with diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition that causes blurry vision in people with diabetes. The goal is to see if EYP-1901 works as well as the standard treatment (aflibercept) but with fewer injections. About 240 adults with DME will be randomly assigned to receive either EYP-1901 or aflibercept, and their vision will be followed for over a year.
