Trial Outcomes & Findings for Randomized Study for Efficacy and Safety of Ranibizumab 0.5mg in Treat-extend and Monthly Regimens in Patients With nAMD (NCT NCT01948830)

NCT ID: NCT01948830

Last Updated: 2017-04-17

Results Overview

Best-Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) letters was measured using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)-like charts while participants were in a sitting position at a testing distance of 4 meters. The range of ETDRS is 0 to 100 letters. A positive average change from baseline of BCVA indicates improvement

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to month 12

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS), comprised of all patients to whom treatment regimen had been assigned, was considered for the analysis. Only patients with the value for both Baseline and study completion after last observational carried forward (LOCF) were included in this analysis. LOCF was used as an imputation of missing data.

Best-Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) letters was measured using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)-like charts while participants were in a sitting position at a testing distance of 4 meters. The range of ETDRS is 0 to 100 letters. A positive average change from baseline of BCVA indicates improvement

Timeframe: Baseline and every month for 12 months

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS), comprised of all patients to whom treatment regimen had been assigned, was considered for the analysis. Only patients with the value for both Baseline and the specific post-baseline visit were included for this analysis.

BCVA score was based on the number of letters read correctly on the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity chart assessed at a starting distance of 4 meters. An increased score indicates improvement in acuity. This outcome assessed the number of participants who had improvement of ≥1, ≥5, ≥10, ≥15, and ≥30 letters of visual acuity at Month 12 as compared with baseline

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and every month for 12 months

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS), comprised of all patients to whom treatment regimen had been assigned, was considered for the analysis. Only patients with the value for both Baseline and the specific post-baseline visit were included for this analysis.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was assessed in a sitting position using ETDRS-like visual acuity testing charts at an initial testing distance of 4 meters.Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was assessed in a sitting position using ETDRS-like visual acuity testing charts at an initial testing distance of 4 meters.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and every month for 12 months

Population: The Full Analysis Set (FAS), comprised of all patients to whom treatment regimen had been assigned, was considered for the analysis. Only patients with the value for both Baseline and the specific post-baseline visit were included for this analysis.

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) was measured using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS)-like charts at baseline and month 12 while participants were in a sitting position at a testing distance of 4 meters. The range of EDTRS is 0 to 100 letters. BCVA above 73 letters at Month 12 indicates a positive outcome

OCT (optical coherence tomography) was used to assess intra-retinal fluid as Measured by SD-OCT (Spectral Domain-Optical Coherence Tomography). Fluid free macula refers to absence of macular edema (as assessed by the reading center). The full analysis set was used for this evaluation but the count presented are the counts of patients in the specific treatment group who have a value for the macular edema (center involvement) at study completion.

The survey consisted of 25 items representing 11 vision related constructs (general vision, ocular pain, near activities, distance activities, social functioning, mental health, role difficulties, dependency, driving, color vision, peripheral vision) plus a single-item general health rating question. The score of each individual question ranged from 0 (worst) to 100 which indicates the best possible response. The composite score and score of each of each construct also ranged from 0 to 100 as they are calculated as total scores divided by the number of questions. The higher the values of total scores represent better outcome
