Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Effect on Central Retinal Thickness of BI 1026706 in Patients With Diabetic Macular Edema (NCT NCT02732951)

NCT ID: NCT02732951

Last Updated: 2019-03-20

Results Overview

The change from baseline in CSFT at Week 12 and the BI 1026706 effect was compared between the BI 1026706 treatment group and the placebo group as measured by Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT). Baseline was defined as the CSFT value measured at the visit when patients were randomised. Mean presented here is an adjusted mean.

Participant Flow

This was randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial to evaluate pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of orally administered Boehringer Ingelheim (BI) 1026706 for 12 weeks in patients with Diabetic Macular Oedema (DME).

All patients were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Patients attended specialist sites which would then ensure that all patients met all inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients were not to be randomized to trial treatment if any one of the specific entry criteria were violated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Week 12

Population: Full analysis set (FAS): FAS includes all patients who were randomised, treated with at least 1 dose of BI 1026706 or placebo, and with a baseline and at least one post randomisation central subfield foveal thickness (CSFT) measurement.

The change from baseline in CSFT at Week 12 and the BI 1026706 effect was compared between the BI 1026706 treatment group and the placebo group as measured by Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT). Baseline was defined as the CSFT value measured at the visit when patients were randomised. Mean presented here is an adjusted mean.
