The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of elamipretide in subjects with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The main questions it aims to answer are: what is the rate of change in the macular area of photoreceptor loss in subjects who receive a daily dose of elamipretide compared with those who receive a look-alike substance that contains no active drug, and what is the safety and tolerability of elamipretide daily subcutaneous injections. Participants will receive either once daily subcutaneous doses of 40mg elamipretide or placebo and the two treatment groups will be compared.
NCT06943599
The goal of this randomized, parallel-group, controlled trial is to compare methods of improving linkage-to-care for participants in the Village Integrated Eye Worker II (VIEW II) trial who are referred to the eye hospital following eye disease screening. Participants who are referred to the hospital at an eye screening visit will be randomized to three different linkage-to-care interventions: (1) text message reminders, (2) reminders from health workers, or (3) no intervention. The primary outcome of the trial will be whether or not the participant presented to the eye hospital for a referral visit by 21 days following screening.

Phase 1/2 Trial NT-101 Topical Ophthalmic Solution in Patients with Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
NCT06668064
This is a phase 3 randomized, double -masked study comparing the efficacy of EYP-1901 against Aflibercept.
NCT03630562
Anti-VEGF intravitreal injections are the treatment of choice in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). However 37% of patients are unresponsive or poorly responsive to these therapies. It is still not possible to foresee the patient's response to anti-VEGF injections. A poor response may be related to an activation of alternative pro-angiogenic pathways with over expression of many other pro-angiogenic cytokines. The primary goal of this study is to measure the aqueous humor concentration of pro-angiogenic cytokines in AMD patients.

This is a phase 3 randomized, double -masked study comparing the efficacy of EYP-1901 against Aflibercept.
NCT07424235
Geographic atrophy (GA) is an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration that leads to progressive and irreversible vision loss. The course of visual decline varies widely among patients, and it is not always clear which anatomical features of the retina are associated with faster loss of vision. This retrospective observational study aims to describe the natural history of vision loss in patients with geographic atrophy who have characteristics similar to those enrolled in the ARCHER II clinical trial. The study will analyze previously collected clinical and imaging data from patients followed during routine clinical care at a single center. The main goal of the study is to evaluate the relationship between changes in visual function and retinal anatomical features, such as the size and location of atrophic lesions and retinal layer integrity, using fundus autofluorescence and optical coherence tomography images. No treatments or study procedures are performed as part of this research. All data used in the study were collected during standard clinical practice and analyzed retrospectively.
NCT07365371
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy, durability, and safety of aflibercept 8 mg in treating Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy (PCV) in Chinese naive patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) at Week 52 from baseline in different treatment regimens? 2. What proportion of patients achieve sustained disease control after receiving the loading dose? Participants will: * Receive intravitreal aflibercept 8 mg loading doses (3 initial monthly doses). * In Arm A: * Undergo reinjections based on disease activity, with follow-up examinations every 4 weeks until week 48. * Return for an end-of-study visit at week 52. * In Arm B: * Undergo an examination at week 12 and subsequent treatments based on disease activity, with a maximum interval of 20 weeks and a minimum interval of 8 weeks between doses if the disease remains inactive. * Return for an end-of-study visit at week 52. This study will assess the efficacy, safety and durability of aflibercept 8mg in these 2 regimens.

NCT07249216
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD), also called wet AMD, can cause serious vision loss. While anti-VEGF (anti Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) treatments such as ranibizumab help many patients, about 20 40% have a suboptimal response. In this study, the investigators want to identify other factors (beyond VEGF) that might be driving the disease in these non-responding patients. By looking at samples from inside the eye (vitreous humor) and comparing "good responders" to "suboptimal responders", the investigators hope to find potential new treatment approaches or biomarkers for nAMD.

To assess the single-dose and multiple-dose pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of SCAI-005 eyedrops(axitinib) in healthy volunteers
NCT07003165
The global distribution of primary ophthalmic medical resources is uneven, and the traditional eye disease screening model has problems such as low efficiency, high cost and limited coverage. With the development of artificial intelligence and other technologies, it provides technical support for the construction of intelligent mobile screening model for eye diseases. The investigator's team has developed the 5G intelligent ophthalmic vehicle and served tens of thousands of people in 108 cities nationwide, initially verifying the feasibility of the new intelligent mobile screening model. However, the application effect, acceptance and influencing factors of this model in different regions are not clear, and there is a lack of economic benefit analysis based on real-world data. In this study, the investigators will conduct a cross-sectional study of large-scale population screening for blinding eye diseases in grassroots areas through the smart mobile screening model, focusing on the screening effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the smart mobile screening model, integrating real-world multimodal eye health data, developing multiple smart screening analysis models, and exploring its adaptability and direction of improvement in grassroots areas.
NCT06694272
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment in industrialized countries. Anatomical examination findings at the early and intermediate stages of AMD are not sufficient to determine any functional alterations at these stages (e.g., alterations in microperimetry, multifocal electroretinogram (mfERG) and contrast sensitivity). Identifying early functional markers of the disease is a necessary first step in the development and clinical validation of treatments to slow progression to advanced disease.

NCT06918028
To establish a multimodal fundus image report generation model to realize an interpretable system for multiple fundus diseases, multimodal image analysis, diagnosis, and treatment decision automatic reporting based on weakly labeled training data. Construct an interpretable feature fusion network for the clinical and imaging features of fundus lesions, and we hope to extract new imaging markers that can predict the occurrence and progression of various fundus lesions at an early stage, and ultimately verify them in real clinical data, further providing possible directions for exploring the molecular mechanisms of refractory fundus lesions, and may also provide new ideas for the precise prevention and treatment of fundus lesions.

Nutrition plays an important role in preventing progression of dry age related macular degeneration (AMD), a disease of aging that leads to drusen deposits in the macula causing significant decrease in vision. Drusen contains amyloid protein which is inhibited by curcumin, a natural plant based antioxidant. Oral Longvida curcumin has been shown to accumulate in the retina of human subjects within 10 days of supplementation. This study aims to investigate the duration of oral curcumin supplementation needed to see clinical impact in reducing volume and number of drusen and decreasing choriocapillaris density loss or flow impairment in dry AMD patients. Patients will be given a 12-month course of oral Longvida curcumin and clinical impact will be measured by multimodal retinal imaging (fundus photos, OCT and OCT-A) at day 0, month 3, month 6, and month 12 of supplementation. Previous small studies have shown change in drusen size within 4 6months of curcumin supplementation, given that drusen can naturally fluctuate in size, we want to have a longer study period with a control group to better understand the effects of curcumin on drusen characteristics.
NCT06878573
This prospective study will include patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration or diabetic macular edema, scheduled for intravitreal aflibercept. Ocular perfusion will be measured by Laser Speckle Flowgraphy (LSFG). The parameter Mean Blur Rate (MBR) reflects erythrocyte flow velocity and serves as an indirect marker of perfusion. MBR will be measured at the optic nerve head (ONH). The devices software can analyze MBR in areas of major retinal vessels (MV) and in microperfusion areas (MT) separately. Measurements will be conducted on the day of the planned intravitreal injection and one and four weeks post-injection.

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects 2 million people in France and is the main cause of irreversible blindness in France. All patients initially have an early form of the disease. This early form can evolve in two different ways: the atrophic form, which progresses slowly, and the exudative or neovascular form, which has a more rapid evolution. While there are treatments for the exudative form of the disease, there is currently no therapy for the atrophic form of AMD. Recently, it has been demonstrated in atrophic AMD that there is accumulation of inflammatory cells, monocytes, in the sub-retinal space. This space is located between the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptors. It is physiologically devoid of immune cells (immune privilege). Monocytes secrete many pro-inflammatory molecules, such as cytokines. Some cytokines (IL-1, IL6 and TNF) have a deleterious role on RPE and photoreceptors in mouse models. The identification of specific cytokines would help to better understand this disease and consider potential targeted therapies. Our project is based on the hypothesis that monocytes extracted from patients with AMD have a superior survival on RPE compared to monocytes extracted from healthy patients (without retinal pathology), and more particularly in atrophic forms of AMD. The main aim of this study is to compare the survival of monocytes extracted from patients with atrophic AMD to monocytes extracted from patients without retinal pathology (control) on retinal pigment epithelial cell lines (ARPE-19). Survival will be evaluated by automated counting of monocytes after 24 hours of culture on ARPE-19 after specific immunostaining of monocytes. If the survival of monocytes from patients with the late form of AMD is increased then therapy directly targeting this pathological accumulation of monocytes could be considered. Moreover, the identification of increased secretion of certain cytokines and the demonstration of their deleterious effect on retinal physiology could lead to targeted therapies against them.
