Anti-VEGF Injection for Herpes-Related Corneal Blood Vessels
This study tests whether injecting an anti-VEGF medication directly into the clear part of your eye (cornea) can safely reduce abnormal blood vessels caused by a herpes virus eye infection. If you have HSV keratitis with new vessel growth and haven't had prior anti-VEGF treatment or corneal surgery, this trial may be an option for you.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT07329712Recruiting
Light therapy for dry eye: tear protein study
This trial tests whether low-level light therapy can improve dry eye disease by measuring changes in tear proteins. It may help people with chronic dry eye who are interested in a non-drug treatment.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT07330674RecruitingPhase 1
Safety study of ABF-101 in healthy people and AMD patients
This trial tests the safety of a new drug called ABF-101 in two groups: healthy volunteers (Part A and B) and people with age-related macular degeneration (AMD, Part C). If you join, you will help researchers understand how the drug affects the body and if it's safe enough to study further.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–50 - NCT07333677RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing CAR-T therapy for severe graves' disease
This early-phase trial tests a new type of treatment called CAR-T cells (special immune cells made in a lab) to target and calm down the overactive immune system in people with severe Graves' disease that hasn't improved with standard medicines. It may offer a new option for those who have been on treatment for years or have had multiple relapses.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07335146Recruiting
Eye imaging study for childhood nearsightedness
