Study population

Subjects having the Retisert FA drug delivery system (0.59 mg) surgically implanted in the ocular vitreous chamber of at least 1 previously unimplanted eye for at least 1 year

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. Are scheduled for surgical placement of a Retisert fluocinolone acetonide (FA) intravitreal implant in a previously unimplanted eye.
  2. Are able and willing to comply with all treatment and follow up/study procedures.
  3. Able and willing to provide or, for subjects 12-18 years of age, have the ability to understand and provide assent (when applicable) and whose parent/legally authorized representative has the ability to understand and provide written informed consent on the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved informed consent form (ICF) and provide authorization as appropriate for local privacy regulations.
  4. For female subjects:

Note: Should a subject conceive during the study, the pregnancy should be reported as soon as possible to the study Medical Monitor and Promedica International within 24 hours. The pregnancy will be followed up to term. The subject will continue in the studyregardless if pregnancy is reported on an AE/SAE form. If an Investigator becomes aware of a post study pregnancy 30 days after the study exit visit while Fluocinolone Acetonide Implant remains in the subject's study eye, then it should be reported as a post-marketing report

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Has previously, concurrently or anticipated enrollment in Bausch \& Lomb study 440, titled, "An Observational Bilateral Evaluation of Corneal Endothelial Cell Density in Subjects Who Have Had a Fluocinolone Acetonide Implant for at Least One Year."
  2. Has severe/serious ocular pathology or medical condition that could result in the subject's inability to complete the study, based on the judgment of the Investigator.
  3. Has participated in an ophthalmic drug or device research study within 30 days prior to Screening (Visit 1, Day -30 to -1) in this study
  4. Is monocular (unable to detect hand motion at 6 feet in 1 eye).
  5. Has a known corneal dystrophy or corneal transplant.
  6. Has a history of ocular surgery in the eye scheduled for implant surgery, including laser procedures, within the 30 days prior to Screening (Visit 1, Day -30 to -1).
  7. Had any type of intraocular drug delivery implant (eg, Retisert, Ozurdex [dexamethasone intravitreal implant]) in the study eye.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 21, 2019, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
