Tests treatment safety and results for Center Involved Diabetic Macular Edema
Official title Phase I Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of OCU200 for Center-Involved Diabetic Macular Edema (DME)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05802329
What this study is testing
What is OCU200?
OCU200 is an investigational medicine, given as an injectable medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for center involved diabetic macular edema.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- A Phase 1 study to assess the safety and efficacy of OCU200 for center-involved diabetic macular edema
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study

Who can take part
Ages 18 and older. Healthy volunteers may be eligible.
You may be able to join if
- Diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
- Decreased visual acuity attributable primarily to DME
- Central-involved DME with central retinal subfield thickness (CST) values, as assessed with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) of:
- ≥ 320 but ≤ 450µm if male or ≥ 305 but ≤ 435µm if female on Heidelberg Spectralis
- ≥ 305 but ≤ 435µm if male or ≥ 290 but ≤ 420µm if female on Zeiss Cirrus
You likely can't join if
- Presence of any condition that prevent clear visualization of retina (e.g., significant cataract, vitreous hemorrhage)
- Uncontrolled hypertension
- Uncontrolled glaucoma
- Concurrent disease in the study eye, other than central-involved DME
- Intravitreal or periocular steroid treatment within 3 months prior to the screening visit
- Any ocular surgery within 3 months prior to the screening visit in the study eye
