Recruiting studies near Houston
- NCT06990399RecruitingPhase 3
Testing KSI-101 eye injections for swelling from inflammation
This trial tests a new injected medicine (KSI-101) for people with swelling in the back of the eye caused by inflammation. The medicine is given directly into the eye to see if it can reduce the swelling and improve vision.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07867080RecruitingPhase 3
Gene therapy injection for diabetic macular edema
This trial tests a one-time gene therapy injection into the eye for adults with diabetic macular edema (DME), a condition where fluid builds up in the retina and blurs vision. The goal is to reduce the need for frequent eye injections and help maintain vision over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06996080RecruitingPhase 3
Study of KSI-101 for swelling caused by eye inflammation
This trial tests a new medicine called KSI-101 given as an injection into the eye to treat swelling in the center of the retina caused by inflammation. It may help people whose vision has gotten worse due to this type of swelling.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07592273RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Gene therapy for diabetic eye disease without macular swelling
This trial tests a gene therapy injection into the eye to treat diabetic retinopathy (eye damage from diabetes) before it progresses. The goal is to slow or prevent vision loss and potentially delay the need for laser treatment or other injections.
Bellaire, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05802329RecruitingPhase 1
Testing eye injections for diabetic macular swelling
This Phase 1 study tests the safety and early effectiveness of OCU200 eye injections in people with diabetic macular edema (DME) that affects the center of vision. It may help by reducing the eye swelling that blurs vision from diabetes.
Bellaire, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07553429RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new eye injection for diabetic swelling
This study tests different doses of a new medicine (BI 3812465) injected into the eye to treat diabetic macular edema—swelling in the back of the eye caused by diabetes that can blur vision. The trial measures how safe the medicine is and how well patients tolerate it.
Bellaire, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07705555RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing a new eye injection to standard treatment for diabetic eye swelling
This trial tests if a new medicine (MK-8748) works as well as or better than the usual treatment (aflibercept) for people with diabetic macular edema, a condition that causes vision loss from diabetes-related swelling in the back of the eye.
Bellaire, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07205887RecruitingPhase 2
Study of EYE103 for wet AMD or macular edema after BRVO
This trial tests an investigational drug called EYE103 injected into the eye to treat two conditions: wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or macular edema following a branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). It looks at how safe and effective the drug is for people who have not had treatment before or have not responded well to previous treatments.
Bellaire, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07705607RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing MK-8748 to standard treatment for diabetic eye swelling
This trial tests a new medicine (MK-8748) against an existing treatment (aflibercept) for people with diabetic macular edema, which causes vision loss due to swelling in the back of the eye. The goal is to see which works better to improve or protect vision.
Katy, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06962839RecruitingPhase 2
Study of BI 1815368 for diabetic macular edema
This study tests a new medicine, BI 1815368, to see if it can help people with diabetic macular edema, a condition that causes swelling in the back of the eye and can blur vision. If you qualify, you may be able to try this treatment and help researchers learn if it works.

What taking part in a diabetic macular edema study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
