Recruiting studies in Maryland
- 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.

Registry for inherited eye vision conditions
This study is a registry, meaning it collects information about people with inherited retinal (retina) diseases. It may help researchers learn how these conditions progress and connect you with future studies or treatments.

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.

What taking part in a macular degeneration 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.

- Do I have to live in Maryland to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Maryland, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a macular degeneration trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
