Brief summary
This study is a Phase III, double-masked, multicenter, randomized, sham injection-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of ranibizumab injection in patients with clinically significant macular edema with center involvement (CSME-CI) secondary to diabetes mellitus (Type 1 or 2). This study is identical in design to study NCT00473382 (Protocol ID FVF4168g). The open-label extension phase of the study was stopped after receiving FDA approval of the study drug (ranibizumab) for diabetic macular edema.
Detailed description
This study is composed of 3 phases: (1) A 24-month controlled treatment period (monthly treatment with ranibizumab 0.3 mg, ranibizumab 0.5 mg, or sham injection) followed by (2) a 12-month treatment period in which patients randomized to the sham group who had not discontinued from treatment (still masked) could choose to receive monthly ranibizumab 0.5 mg while the 2 ranibizumab treatment groups continued on the same treatment they received in the first 2 years. Patients who had not discontinued treatment by Month 36 were eligible to continue treatment with ranibizumab 0.5 mg as needed (pro re nata, PRN) in (3) an extension phase of the study for up to 2 more years, resulting in up to 5 years possible total treatment time for some patients.

Exclusion criteria
* History of vitreoretinal surgery in the study eye. * Panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) or macular laser photocoagulation in the study eye within 3 months of screening. * Previous use of intraocular corticosteroids in the study eye (eg, triamcinolone acetonide \[TA\]) within 3 months of screening. * Previous treatment with anti-angiogenic drugs in either eye (pegaptanib sodium, anecortave acetate, bevacizumab, ranibizumab, etc) within 3 months of the Day 0 (first day of treatment) visit. * Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in the study eye, with the exception of inactive, regressed PDR. * Iris neovascularization, vitreous hemorrhage, traction retinal detachment, or preretinal fibrosis involving the macula in the study eye.

Central foveal thickness was assessed in optical coherence tomographic images by the central reading center. A decrease in foveal thickness suggests a reduction in macular edema. A negative change score indicates improvement.
Time frame: Month 36 to Month 48
Population: Intent-to-treat population: All randomized patients, whether or not treatment was received. The Month 48 data are based on the observed data for patients enrolled in the open-label extension phase; missing data were not imputed.
