Study summary

This is a multiple-center, multiple-dose, randomized, active comparator-controlled, double-masked, three parallel group, 36-week study in participants with center-involving diabetic macular edema (DME). Only one eye will be selected as the study eye. Where both eyes meet all eligibility criteria, the eye with the worse best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) will be defined as the study eye. The study will consist of a treatment period (20 weeks) and an observational period (up to 16 weeks). Treatment naive participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to one of the Arms A, B and C, respectively. Participants previously treated with intravitreal (IVT) anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Arms A and C.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean Change From Baseline in BCVA Letter Score at Week 24, in Treatment-Naive Participants

    Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at a starting test distance of 4 meters was measured using a set of three Precision VisionTM or Lighthouse distance acuity charts (modified ETDRS Charts 1, 2, and R) prior to dilating eyes by a trained and certified visual acuity examiner masked to study drug arm assignment. The BCVA examiner was masked to study eye and treatment assignment and only performed the refraction and BCVA assessment, but was not allowed to perform any other tasks involving direct care. The BCVA examiner was also masked to the BCVA letter scores of a participant's previous visits and could only know the participant's refraction data from previous visits. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score attainable), and a gain in BCVA letter score from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The primary analysis used a Linear Mixed Effects Model for Repeated Measurements. Missing values were not imputed; it was assumed that the data were missing at random.

  40. Mean Heart Rate at Baseline and Week 24, as Measured by Electrocardiogram in All Participants

    Triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), i.e., three useful ECGs without artifacts, were performed on all evaluable participants. To minimize variability, it was important that participants be in a resting position for at least 10 minutes prior to the ECG evaluation. Body position was to be consistently maintained for each ECG evaluation to prevent changes in heart rate. Environmental distractions (e.g., television, radio, conversation, mobile phones) were to be minimized before and during ECG recording. Triplicate ECGs were to be obtained within a 5-minute interval. The predefined standard reference range for heart rate measured by ECG was 40 (low) to 100 (high) beats per minute.

    Triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), i.e., three useful ECGs without artifacts, were performed on all evaluable participants. To minimize variability, it was important that participants be in a resting position for at least 10 minutes prior to the ECG evaluation. Body position was to be consistently maintained for each ECG evaluation to prevent changes in heart rate. Environmental distractions (e.g., television, radio, conversation, mobile phones) were to be minimized before and during ECG recording. Triplicate ECGs were to be obtained within a 5-minute interval. Baseline was defined as the last non-missing predose assessment. The predefined standard reference ranges for the intervals measured by ECG were defined as follows (ranges are from low to high, in milliseconds \[msec\]): PR: 120-200 msec; RR: 600-1500 msec; QT: 200-500 msec; QRS: 40-120 msec.

  42. Number of Participants With Marked Laboratory Abnormalities in Hematology Tests, in All Participants

    Clinical laboratory tests for hematology parameters were performed and any marked abnormal values (High or Low) were based on Roche's predefined standard reference ranges. Marked laboratory abnormalities are presented according to COG3007 abnormality criteria: Single, Not Last = abnormality detected at a single assessment, but not at the last assessment; Last or Replicated = abnormality detected at the last assessment or replicated at one or more assessments. Not every laboratory abnormality qualified as an adverse event, only if it met any of the following criteria: clinically significant (per investigator); accompanied by clinical symptoms; resulted in a change in study treatment; or required a change in concomitant therapy. Abs. = absolute count; Ery. = erythrocyte; Hemo. = hemoglobin

    Time frame: Predose at Baseline, Weeks 12 and 24, and at Early Termination and Unscheduled Visits (up to 36 weeks)

  43. Number of Participants With Marked Laboratory Abnormalities in Blood Chemistry Tests, in All Participants

Outcome measures

PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in BCVA Letter Score at Week 24, in Treatment-Naive Participants

Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at a starting test distance of 4 meters was measured using a set of three Precision VisionTM or Lighthouse distance acuity charts (modified ETDRS Charts 1, 2, and R) prior to dilating eyes by a trained and certified visual acuity examiner masked to study drug arm assignment. The BCVA examiner was masked to study eye and treatment assignment and only performed the refraction and BCVA assessment, but was not allowed to perform any other tasks involving direct care. The BCVA examiner was also masked to the BCVA letter scores of a participant's previous visits and could only know the participant's refraction data from previous visits. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score attainable), and a gain in BCVA letter score from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The primary analysis used a Linear Mixed Effects Model for Repeated Measurements. Missing values were not imputed; it was assumed that the data were missing at random.

The BCVA examiner was masked to study eye and treatment assignment and only performed the refraction and BCVA assessment, but was not allowed to perform any other tasks involving direct care. The BCVA examiner was also masked to the BCVA letter scores of a participant's previous visits and could only know the participant's refraction data from previous visits. The BCVA letter score ranges from 0 to 100 (best score attainable), and a gain in BCVA letter score from baseline indicates an improvement in visual acuity. The outcome measure was analyzed using a Generalized Estimating Equations Model. Missing values were not imputed; it was assumed that the data were missing at random.

SecondaryMean Heart Rate at Baseline and Week 24, as Measured by Electrocardiogram in All Participants

Triplicate 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), i.e., three useful ECGs without artifacts, were performed on all evaluable participants. To minimize variability, it was important that participants be in a resting position for at least 10 minutes prior to the ECG evaluation. Body position was to be consistently maintained for each ECG evaluation to prevent changes in heart rate. Environmental distractions (e.g., television, radio, conversation, mobile phones) were to be minimized before and during ECG recording. Triplicate ECGs were to be obtained within a 5-minute interval. The predefined standard reference range for heart rate measured by ECG was 40 (low) to 100 (high) beats per minute.
