Registered outcomes3

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Eyes Showing Recurrence of Neovascularization Arising From the Retinal Vessels and Requiring Re-treatment54 weeks postmenstrual age (window of 50 to 70 weeks)
For Bevacizumab: Regrowth of new vessels at the site of the original extraretinal fibrovascular proliferation and/or at the site of the anterior edge of inner retinal vascularization. For Laser: Regrowth of new vessels from the vessels at the anterior edge of inner retinal vascularization (remaining after retinal ablation).
SecondaryMyopia in Zone I and Posterior Zone II of Infant Eyes2.5 years of ageMyopia was determined via refraction using a retinoscope and lenses. Myopia is defined as a refractive error reported in Diopters.
SecondaryVisual AcuityAge 7 years.The visual acuity will be measured at 20 feet with figures or letters from all infants able to cooperate.

Outcomes3

Each outcome the trial posted results for, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

TypeOutcomeTime framePopulationUnitsMeasured as
PRIMARYNumber of Eyes Showing Recurrence of Neovascularization Arising From the Retinal Vessels and Requiring Re-treatment54 weeks postmenstrual age (window of 50 to 70 weeks)Both eyes of all surviving infants were analyzed for recurrence: thus, 143 surviving infants and 286 eyes were analyzed. Reporting the number of eyes that developed recurrenceseyes with recurrencesNUMBER
SECONDARYMyopia in Zone I and Posterior Zone II of Infant Eyes2.5 years of age
As of 6/2013, there were 13 deaths/ 26 eyes. Exclusions from surviving 137 infants/ 274 eyes: 6 infants/19 eyes with intraocular surgery--leaving: 131 infants/ 255 eyes; 14 infants/ 21 eyes had recurrence and 22 infants/ 44 eyes were lost to follow-up--leaving: 95 infants/ 190 eyes. Thus, only the refractions on these infants/ eyes are given.
