Safety follow-up for brolucizumab in neovascular AMD
This study tracks the real-world safety of brolucizumab in adults with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD). If you’re already prescribed this medicine, the study may help confirm it continues to be safe and well-tolerated over time.
Daegu, Dalseo GuAges 18–100 - NCT04847635Recruiting
Laser test for aging-related macular spots under the retina
This trial studies a mild (“subthreshold”) laser treatment for reticular pseudodrusen (RPD) caused by age-related macular degeneration (AMD). If you qualify, the goal is to see whether the laser helps preserve or improve vision by targeting these specific eye changes.
GenovaAges 55 years+ - NCT04853251RecruitingPhase 4
Study of corneal cells after a ranibizumab eye implant
This trial checks how well corneal endothelial cells (cells that help keep the cornea clear) do in people with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) who are treated with a port-delivery implant that releases ranibizumab. It also helps doctors understand whether this method changes corneal health and stays safe while controlling the eye disease.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT04739319Recruiting
Study of age-related macular degeneration changes
This study looks closely at how age-related macular degeneration (AMD) develops and changes over time by taking detailed eye measurements. It may help researchers better understand disease progression, especially for people who already have AMD.
East Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT04735263RecruitingPhase 2
Testing dark vision changes as a statin response signal
This Phase 2 study looks at whether changes in night/dark adaptation can show early whether high-dose atorvastatin (a statin) is helping intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD). If you fit, you may help researchers find an earlier way to tell who is responding.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 50–85 - NCT04627428RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stem-cell–made eye tissue transplant for dry macular degeneration
This early-stage study tests whether a stem-cell–derived transplant to the back of the eye is safe and tolerable in people with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). If you qualify, you may receive the transplant and have close follow-up to watch for side effects.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 55 years+ - NCT04663750RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery to treat bleeding under the retina in wet macular degeneration
This trial tests whether a specific eye surgery plus targeted clot-busting medicine and gas can improve vision after bleeding under the retina from “wet” age-related macular degeneration. It aims to reduce how long the bleeding lasts and help protect the central vision.
BonnAges 50–120 - NCT04504123RecruitingPhase 2
Doxycycline eye treatment for persistent wet macular degeneration fluid
This trial tests whether an “MMP-9 inhibitor” medicine given as doxycycline (a tetracycline-type antibiotic) can reduce persistent leaking and fluid in wet age-related macular degeneration. It may help people whose wet AMD is not fully controlled even after several anti-VEGF injections.
Iowa City, IowaAges 50–99 - NCT04339764RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
iPS cell eye transplant for dry macular degeneration
This early-phase study tests whether transplanting lab-made retinal cells from your own body can slow vision loss from geographic atrophy caused by dry age-related macular degeneration. It involves eye surgery and frequent follow-up to check safety and early signs of benefit.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 55–95 - NCT04292080RecruitingPhase 2
Tecfidera trial to slow worsening geographic atrophy
This Phase 2 study tests dimethyl fumarate (Tecfidera) to slow the growth of geographic atrophy, a form of age-related macular degeneration that affects central vision. You may be asked to take the study medicine and attend regular eye scans over about 2 years to see if it helps.
Créteil, Val De MarneAges 55–85 - NCT07531927Recruiting
Electrical Stimulation for Geographic Atrophy Vision Loss
This study tests whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to the eye can help slow vision loss from geographic atrophy, a common cause of blindness in older adults. The treatment uses a special device to stimulate the retina (the light-sensing tissue in the back of your eye).
HamburgAges 60 years+ - NCT03999801Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Long-term follow-up for a subretinal eye treatment
This study checks how well a previous eye treatment (RGX-314) lasts over time. There is also an extra “other eye” study for people with age-related macular degeneration affecting both eyes.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT03683251RecruitingPhase 3
Extension study for a refillable eye implant plus ranibizumab
This trial studies whether continuing treatment with a refillable eye implant (Port Delivery System) and ranibizumab injection helps control a specific type of wet macular degeneration. It’s mainly for people who already finished an earlier related study and are able to keep up with frequent eye checks and procedures.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT03178149RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new eye treatment for dry macular degeneration
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and side effects of ASP7317 in older adults whose central vision is worsening from dry age-related macular degeneration (geographic atrophy). If you qualify, you would receive treatment in the study eye and be closely monitored for about a year.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT02253030Recruiting
Eye scan study for newly diagnosed wet AMD
This study uses a special eye scan (OCT angiography) to look at new, abnormal blood vessel growth in people with wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) who have not been treated yet. It may help researchers better understand the disease and how it changes over time.
Portland, OregonAges 50–100 - NCT02669953Recruiting
Aflibercept injections for persistent wet macular degeneration
This trial studies whether aflibercept injections can help when “wet” age-related macular degeneration is recurring or not fully going away. It focuses on adults who have already had ranibizumab and still have measurable vision in the study eye.
ViennaAges 50 years+ - NCT01496625Recruiting
Biobank study for retinal diseases and comparison samples
This study collects and stores blood and eye-related medical information to help researchers better understand retinal diseases, including age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy. Your samples may also be used to compare people with retinal disease to people without it.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 2–120 - NCT07630649RecruitingPhase 2
Gene therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration in second eye
This study tests a one-time gene therapy injection (ixoberogene soroparvovec) in the second eye of people with wet age-related macular degeneration who have already responded well to anti-VEGF injections. The goal is to see if this gene therapy can help preserve or improve vision in that eye.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT07496567RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of EYE201 for wet age-related macular degeneration
This trial tests a new medicine, EYE201, for people with wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) that has not been treated before. The study will see if this drug can help improve vision and slow down vision loss.
