Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Objective: • To assess whether Doxium® is able to slow the progression of subclinical diabetic macular edema (DME) to clinically significant DME. • To determine whether Doxium® is able to slow the progression of diabetic retinopathy assessed by ETDRS (= 1 level). • To assess whether Doxium® is able to slow the progression of neurodegenerative changes. • To evaluate whether Doxium® is able to slow the reduction of visual acuity. • To predict whether Doxium® is able to slow the progression of foveal microvascular changes. • To examine potential changes in the morphology and function of the choroid. • To assess the safety of Doxium®, including adverse events, serious adverse events, analytical data and vital signs.;Primary end point(s): The increase in retinal thickness measured by SD-OCT from the beginning to the end of the study.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 0 months, 4 months, 8 months and 12 months;Main Objective: To determine whether Doxium® is able to prevent or reduce thickening of the retina.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): - The severity of diabetic retinopathy measured with the ETDRS scale. - Retinal nerve fiber layer measured with OCT. - The layer of ganglion cells measured with OCT. - Visual acuity on the ETDRS scale. - Foveal microvessels changes evaulated by anti-OCT. - Choroidal anomalies assessed by OCT. - Safety, including adverse effects and laboratory results.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Depending on the endpoint the timepoint will be different: 0 months, 4 months, 8 months and 12 months
