Observation of Treatment Patterns With Lucentis in Approved Indications (OCEAN)

February 28, 2017 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

Observation of Treatment Patterns With Lucentis and Real Life Ophthalmic Monitoring, Including Optional OCT in Approved Indications

A multicentre, open-label, non-interventional study to observe treatment patterns in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration (wAMD), with visual impairment due to diabetic macular edema (DME), due to macular edema following retinal vein occlusion (RVO) or due to chorioidal neovascularization following pathologic myopia (mCNV) with repeated intravitreal injections of Lucentis® (Ranibizumab) including optional OCT monitoring over a 24 months observational period under real life conditions.

Study Population

Male and female patients suffering from neovascular eye pathology in real life setting for whom a therapy with Lucentis® is recommended by the treating physician in line with approved indications. Warnings and contraindications have to be taken into account according to the summary of product characteristics (SmPC).

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Presence of

    • neovascular (wet) age-related macular degeneration (AMD),
    • visual impairment due to diabetic macular oedema (DME),
    • visual impairment due to macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (branch RVO or central RVO) or
    • visual impairment due to choroidal neovascularisation (CNV) secondary to pathologic myopia (PM)
  • Patients for whom a therapy with Lucentis® is medically indicated.
  • Written patients informed consent.

Exclusion criteria:

  • As described in the SmPC.
  • Preceding intravitreal treatment of the study eye with anti-VEGF drugs in the last three months before enrollment
  • Preceding intravitreal treatment of the study eye with steroids

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change from Baseline in Visual Acuity (VA) to Month 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 12
Visual Acuity is measured either with ETDRS Scores, Snellen or decimal Scale according to routine clinical practice. Measurements are transferred to LogMAR for statistical analysis. LogMAR is defined as logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution.
