Conditions:

Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion With Macular Edema

Eligibility:

All Genders

18+ years

Phase:

PHASE4

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Center-involved macular edema secondary to BRVO for no longer than 3 months (at the screening visit it should be ensured that the subjects will comply with the criterion of ≤ 3 months since onset of macular edema at their scheduled baseline visit).
  • Adult subjects diagnosed with macular edema secondary to BRVO who are scheduled to be treated with intravitreal aflibercept as per investigator's routine treatment practice with the intent to use a T\&E regimen after initial treatment.
  • Treatment-naïve subjects for macular edema secondary to BRVO.
  • Both ischemic and non-ischemic BRVO, which are confirmed by FA at baselin, week 24 and week 72.
  • Men and women ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Documented BCVA of ETDRS letter score of 73 to 24 letters (Snellen equivalent of 20/40 to 20/320) in the study eye.

Exclusion

  • Previous PRP or macular laser photocoagulation in the study eye.
  • Any prior or concomitant ocular treatment (e.g. anti-VEGF therapy, corticosteroids) in the study eye for macular edema secondary to BRVO, except dietary supplements or vitamins prior to inclusion in the study. Intraocular anti-VEGF treatment is permitted for the treatment of diseases of fellow eye except for those that are specifically excluded.
  • Prior systemic anti-VEGF or corticosteroid therapy, investigational or approved, within the last 3 months before the first dose in the study.
  • Previous use of intraocular corticosteroids in the study eye at any time or use of periocular corticosteroids in the study eye within 12 months prior to Day 1.
  • Any active intraocular, extraocular, and periocular inflammation or infection in either eye within 4 weeks of screening.
  • Any history of allergy to povidone iodine.
  • Known serious allergy to the fluorescein sodium for injection in angiography.
  • Presence of any contraindications indicated in the EU commission/locally approved label for intravitreal aflibercept: hypersensitivity to the active substance intravitreal aflibercept or to any of the excipients; active or suspected ocular or periocular infection; active severe intraocular inflammation.
