Macular degeneration clinical trials, in English

AMD trials split dry (including geographic atrophy) versus wet/neovascular disease. Visual-acuity floors, recent anti-VEGF injections, and imaging (OCT) rules are typical. An eye-trial listing is not an appointment with a retina clinic. Sourced from ClinicalTrials.gov. Not a recommendation to join any study.

How to read this list

Each headline is a rewrite of registry fields (phase, intervention, condition). Open the NCT link before you call a site. Eligibility is decided by the study team, not by this page. See how to find a trial and eligibility explained.

Not a traditional drug phase: testing Intravitreal injection of Faricimab or Aflibercept 2 mg for Renal Function Disorder

This study aims to investigate the impact of intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti VEGF) Faricimab on renal function of diabetic patients. Faricimab is a new anti-VEGF drug which inhibits both VEGF-A and Ang-2 and it is used for the treatment of diabetic macular edema and neovascular age related macular degeneration.

This study wants to perform a pivotal trial of iPredict, an automated AI-based system for early diagnosis and prediction of late AMD in primary care and ophthalmology settings. Patients will be invited to participate in this study by having non-dilated photos of their eyes taken by an FDA approved fundus camera (DRSPlus from Centervue Inc., CA), at their primary care doctor's office or general ophthalmologist office.

A Non-Interventional Study Observing Short-Term Progression in Geographic Atrophy (GA)

This is a non-treatment, watch-and-measure (no experimental treatment required) study to provide insights into the short-term progression of GA secondary to AMD in participants aged ≥55 years. This is a multi-center, non-treatment, watch-and-measure (no experimental treatment required) study which aims to identify participants who have progressive GA to allow quantification of structural and functional parameters that characterize the progression of GA, and to see if these correlate with genetic or lifestyle factors.

Not a traditional drug phase: Repeated intravitreal anti-VEGF injection with eyelid speculum for Blepharoptosis

Intravitreal anti-VEGF injections are a mainstay of treatment for retinal diseases such as neovascular age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema and retinal vein occlusion, and usually require repeated administration over years. During each injection an eyelid speculum holds the lids open and the upper eyelid is exposed to repeated mechanical stretch.

FAQ: Macular degeneration trials

How do I find recruiting Macular degeneration clinical trials?

This hub lists 33 recruiting Macular degeneration studies from a ClinicalTrials.gov snapshot, rewritten in plain English. Each card links to its NCT record. You can also search the official registry for “age-related macular degeneration” at https://clinicaltrials.gov/search?cond=age-related%20macular%20degeneration.

What does a Macular degeneration trial page on PlainTrials include?

A phase explainer, a plain-English summary grounded in the brief summary, inclusion/exclusion extracted from the public eligibility block, sponsor name, and any central contact the sponsor published. It is not a match to a trial.

Where are Macular degeneration studies located in this snapshot?

Sites that appear on these records include Barcelona, Spain; Sacramento, California; Austin, Texas; Dallas, Texas; London, United Kingdom. A city on a record is not a guarantee that the site is taking new patients this week — call the NCT contact.

Can PlainTrials tell me if I qualify for a Macular degeneration study?

No. Eligibility is decided by the study team using the protocol, labs, and consent. Our “who it is for” list is a readable extract of public inclusion text only.
