New laser approach aims to save sight in diabetic patients

NCT ID NCT07315802

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study will test a new pattern of retinal laser treatment combined with anti-VEGF injections for people with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), a serious eye condition that can lead to blindness. Researchers plan to enroll 300 adults aged 18–70 with stable diabetes and PDR. The goal is to see if this laser pattern better preserves vision and reduces the need for additional treatments compared to standard care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
argon laser photocoagulation combined with anti-VEGF injection
What this could lead to
If successful, this could offer a more targeted laser treatment that reduces vision loss and the need for additional procedures in people with advanced diabetic eye disease.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage study (not yet recruiting) with no phase specified. The new laser pattern may not prove better than standard treatment, and risks include retinal burns or worsening vision.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 300 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Jan 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Jan 2029

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Having given free and informed consent to take part in the study. 2. Diabetes mellitus (DM) under stable treatment during the study, aged 18y to 70y, with no significant underlying systemic diseases (such as impaired renal function, severe cardiac disease, etc.); 3. Clinically diagnosed PDR, with the presence of neovascularization confirmed by ultra-widefield fundus photography and widefield OCT angiography. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Previous treatment with PRP; 2. Previous treatment with anti-VEGF agents or corticosteroids within 3 months; 2\. Severe cataract, massive vitreous hemorrhage, or extensive preretinal hemorrhage that makes pan retinal photocoagulation impossible; 3. Unable to tolerate argon-laser retinal treatment.; 4. Vitreous macular traction or traction retinal detachment need to be performed with vitrectomy; 5. Retinal vascular occlusion, age-related macular degeneration, retinal angioma, uveitis, glaucoma, optic neuropathy, or other ocular diseases that can lead to vitreous hemorrhage and/or neovascularization; 6. Other conditions that the researcher found improper to be included into this study.
