NCT ID:
NCT01635803
Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Male or female patients \> 18 years of age with vision loss due to foveal center-involved ME secondary to branch or central retinal vein occlusion diagnosed within 6 months before study initiation, who have signed an informed consent;
* BCVA equal or more than 24 and less or equal to 78 letters in the study eye at screening using ETDRS- like visual acuity testing charts at a testing distance of 4 meters
* Mean central subfield thickness more than 275 micron on 2 OCT measurements.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Women of child-bearing potential.
2. Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women, where pregnancy is defined as the state of a female after conception and until the termination of gestation, confirmed by a positive serum pregnancy test (human chorionic gonadotropin \> 5 mIU/ml);
3. Inability to comply with study procedures;
4. Active intraocular inflammation in either eye at enrolment;
5. Any active infection in either eye at the time of enrolment;
6. History of uveitis in either eye at any time;
7. Structural damage within 600 micron of the center of the macula in the study eye likely to preclude improvement in visual acuity following in the resolution of macular edema, including atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium, subretinal fibrosis, laser scar(s), epiretinal membrane involving fovea or organized hard exudate plaques;
8. Uncontrolled (neovascular) glaucoma in the study eye at screening. (IOP \> 24 mmHg on medication or according to investigator's judgment);
9. Evidence of vitreomacular traction in the study eye;
10. Patients who are monocular or have a Snellen VA in the non-study eye ≤ 1/300 at visit 1;
11. Any intraocular surgery in the study eye within 3 months prior to randomization;
12. Planned medical or surgical intervention during the 6-months study period;
13. Panretinal laser photocoagulation in the study eye within 3 months prior to or during the study;
14. Focal/grid laser photocoagulation in the study eye 3 months prior to study entry;
15. Treatment with anti-angiogenic drugs in the study eye within 3 months prior to randomization;
16. Use of other investigational drugs at the time of enrolment, or within 3 months or 5 half-lives from enrolment, whichever is longer;
17. History of intravitreal corticosteroids in study eye within 4 months prior to randomization;
18. Ocular conditions in the study eye that require chronic concomitant therapy with topical ocular or systemically administered corticosteroids;
19. History of stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within 6 months prior to enrolment;
20. History of myocardial infarction within 3 months prior to randomization;
21. Current use of or likely need for systemic medications known to be toxic to the lens, retina or optic nerve, including deferoxamine, chloroquine/hydroxychloroquine (Plaquenil), tamoxifen, phenothiazines and ethambutol;
22. Known hypersensitivity to fluorescein, bevacizumab or ranibizumab or any component thereof or drugs of similar chemical classes;
23. Any type of advanced, severe or unstable disease or its treatment, that may interfere with primary and/or secondary variable evaluations including any medical condition that could be expected to progress, recur, or change to such an extend that it may bias the assessment of the clinical status of the patient to a significant degree or put the patient at special risk;
24. Ocular disorders in the study eye that may confound interpretation of study results, compromise visual acuity or require medical or surgical intervention during the 6 month study period, including cataract, retinal vascular occlusion, retinal detachment, macular hole, or choroidal neovascularisation of any cause (e.g., AMD, ocular histoplasmosis, or pathologic myopia);
25. Prior episode of RVO;
26. Evidence on examination of sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy.
