About this trial
A Phase 1 study to assess the safety and efficacy of OCU200 for center-involved diabetic macular edema
Eligibility criteria
This trial accepts healthy volunteersQualifiers
Diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Decreased visual acuity attributable primarily to DME
≥ 320 but ≤ 450µm if male or ≥ 305 but ≤ 435µm if female on Heidelberg Spectralis
≥ 305 but ≤ 435µm if male or ≥ 290 but ≤ 420µm if female on Zeiss Cirrus
Disqualifiers
Presence of any condition that prevent clear visualization of retina (e.g., significant cataract, vitreous hemorrhage)
Uncontrolled hypertension
Uncontrolled glaucoma
Concurrent disease in the study eye, other than central-involved DME

Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Study Drug-related adverse events (SDAE)
Counts, frequencies and percentages of SDAEs.
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs)
Counts, frequencies and percentages TEAEs.
Serious adverse events (SAEs)
Counts, frequencies and percentages of SAEs.
Secondary outcomes
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA)
Measured as the ETDRS letter score on the EVA tester or E-ETDRS charts.
Intraocular pressure (IOP)
IOP measurement by applanation or rebound tonometry.
Color fundus photography
Color fundus photographs will be taken to evaluate retinal anatomy and grade diabetic retinopathy severity scale (DRSS).
Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography (SD-OCT)
SD-OCT will be utilized to assess retinal thickness. OCT images and scans will be transmitted to a central reading center for independent analysis.
Other outcomes
Improvement of diabetic retinopathy severity scale (DRSS)
Proportion of participants with ≥ 2-step improvement of diabetic retinopathy severity scale (DRSS)
Change from baseline in BCVA letters.
Dose response as assessed by mean change from baseline in BCVA letters and mean number of injections by study visit
Reduction of CST
The proportion of participants having a ≥ 10% reduction of CST at Week 13 and Week 19
