New vs existing treatment for diabetic macular edema
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares a new medication, tabirafusp tedromer, to an existing treatment, aflibercept, for people with diabetic macular edema (swelling in the back of the eye from diabetes). It may help if your DME hasn't improved or you're looking for a new option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have diabetic macular edema (DME) in the study eye, whether or not you've been treated before.
- You must be 18 years or older and have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes.
- Your average blood sugar level (hemoglobin A1C) must be 12% or less.
- You cannot have active new blood vessels in the colored part of your eye (iris) or the drainage angle, or glaucoma from such vessels.
- You cannot have a current or past detached retina (retina pulling away from the back of the eye).
- You must be able to understand and sign a consent form.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a high-dose version of the drug aflibercept (given as an eye injection) for people with diabetic macular edema who have previously had a vitrectomy surgery. The goal is to see if this higher dose can help reduce swelling and improve vision.
This phase 3 trial tests a new long-acting injection (EYP-1901) against a standard one (aflibercept) for people with diabetic macular edema. Both treatments are given as eye injections, and the goal is to see if the new drug works as well and may require fewer injections.
This study tests whether one eye injection (aflibercept) works better than another (bevacizumab) for people with diabetic macular edema. Both are already used for this condition, and the goal is to see which provides better vision improvement.
This trial compares a new treatment (EYP-1901, given as an injection) to a standard injection (aflibercept) for people with diabetic macular edema. It aims to see which works better at reducing swelling and improving vision.
This trial tests if combining a steroid implant (dexamethasone) with an anti-VEGF injection (aflibercept) works better than aflibercept alone for people with diabetic macular edema caused by inflammation. It aims to find the best first treatment for improving vision and reducing swelling.
This trial tests a higher dose of aflibercept (8 mg) for people whose diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion, or myopic choroidal neovascularization has not improved with standard treatment. The goal is to see if this stronger dose can reduce fluid and improve vision.
