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
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 This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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

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

Summary

This study tested a new, non-invasive eye scan called OCT angiography to see if it can better detect changes in abnormal blood vessels in people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) who are being treated with Eylea. Researchers followed 49 patients to compare the new scan with standard imaging. The goal was to find early signs that the disease might be coming back, which could help doctors adjust treatment sooner.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors detect early signs of wet AMD recurrence using a non-invasive imaging test, potentially improving treatment timing.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study (49 participants) that does not test a new treatment. The findings may not change current practice without larger validation.
