Brief Summary

To evaluate the pharmacokinetic properties of intravitreal ocriplasmin 125 µg dose when administered at different time-points prior to planned primary pars plana vitrectomy (PPV)

Detailed Description

Open-label, ascending-exposure-time, single center trial in which a total of 36 subjects will be enrolled. The time to remove the vitreous will be recorded and a vitreous sample will be obtained at th...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Male or female subjects aged ≥ 18
  • Eye disease for which a primary vitrectomy is indicated
  • Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) of 20/800 or better in the non-study eye
  • Written informed consent obtained from the subject prior to inclusion in the trial

Exclusion

  • Proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
  • Subjects with any vitreous hemorrhage or any other vitreous opacification which precludes either of the following: visualization of the posterior pole by visual inspection OR adequate assessment of the macula by either Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and/or fluorescein angiogram in the study eye
  • Aphakia in the study eye
  • High myopia (more than 8D) in study eye (unless prior cataract extraction or refractive surgery that makes refraction assessment unreliable for myopia severity approximation, in which case axial length \>28 mm is an exclusion).
  • Subjects with history of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in the either eye
  • Subjects who have had ocular surgery, laser photocoagulation treatment, or intravitreal injection(s) in the study eye in the prior three months
  • Subjects who have had laser photocoagulation to the macula in the study eye at any time
  • Subjects with uncontrolled glaucoma in the study eye (defined as intraocular pressure ≥ 26 mm Hg in spite of treatment with anti-glaucoma medication)
  • Subjects with a history of uveitis in either eye.
  • Subjects who are pregnant or of child-bearing potential not utilizing an acceptable form of contraception. Acceptable methods of birth control include intrauterine device, oral, implanted, or injected contraceptives, and barrier methods with spermicide.
  • Subjects who, in the Investigators view, will not complete all visits and investigations
  • Subjects who have participated in an investigational drug trial within the past 30 days
  • Subjects who have previously participated in this trial
