ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Treatment-related Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v4.052 and 100 weeks
• Assess the safety and tolerability of IAI for the treatment of proliferative diabetic retinopathy by evaluating the incidence and severity of ocular and systemic adverse events through week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryChange in Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Best Corrected Visual Acuity52 weeks and 100 weeksMean change in Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study Best Corrected Visual Acuity (ETDRS-BCVA) from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryChange in Area of Retinal Capillary Non-perfusion Within the Macula52 weeks and 100 weeksChange in area of retinal capillary non-perfusion within the macula compared to baseline, as assessed by ultrawide-field fluorescein angiogram from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryChange in Area of Retinal Capillary Non-perfusion Outside of the Macula52 weeks and 100 weeksChange in area of retinal capillary non-perfusion outside of the macula from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects With Neovascularization Regression52 Weeks and 100 WeeksPercentage of subjects with neovascularization regression (reduced area of neovascularization) as measured by the central image reading center from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects With Increased Neovascularization52 Weeks and 100 WeeksPercentage of subjects with increased neovascularization from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Who Develop Vitreous Hemorrhage52 Weeks and 100 WeeksPercentage of subjects who develop vitreous hemorrhage from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Treated With Pan-retinal Photocoagulation or Vitrectomy52 Weeks and 100 WeeksPercentage of subjects treated with PRP or vitrectomy for progression of PDR from baseline to week 52 and week 100.
SecondaryPercentage of Subjects Who Develop Center-involving Diabetic Macular Edema52 Weeks and 100 WeeksPercentage of subjects, at week 52 and week 100, who develop center-involving diabetic macular edema who did not have center-involving diabetic macular edema at baseline
SecondaryChanges in Visual Function Outcomes (Self Reported Visual Function)52 weeks and 100 weeks
Changes in self reported visual function utilizing the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 (NEI VFQ-25) from baseline to week 52 and week 100. The NEI VFQ is a validated measure of patient-reported visual function measured on a scale from 0 (worst function) to 100 (best function).
