Authorised Phase II and Phase III (Integrated) Diabetic Macular Edema

A randomized study to evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Intravitreal EYE103 Compared to Anti-VEGF

EU CTIS ID: 2025-520809-12-00

What this study is testing

The primary objective of the study is to demonstrate that EYE103 (0.5 mg or 0.8 mg) is non-inferior to ranibizumab 0.5 mg, as measured by the mean change in BCVA up to and including Week 52. This change will be measured using the standardized ETDRS chart from Day 1 to Year 1 (average of Weeks 48 and 52).
