Diabetic Macular Edema

Brief summary

This study aims to evaluate the ocular and systemic safety, tolerability and efficacy of RO7446603 in participants with diabetic macular edema (DME). The study consists of 2 segments: Phase I (Parts 1-4) and Phase II (Part 5). Phase I investigated the safety of RO7446603 following a single and multiple intravitreal (IVT) doses as monotherapy or co-administered with IVT aflibercept or IVT faricimab (in separate injections). Phase II will investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy of two dose levels of RO7446603 in combination with faricimab, with the two drugs co-mixed and administered as a single IVT injection, compared to faricimab alone. The first participant was enrolled in the Phase I segment on June 22, 2022. Phase I has been completed.

Parts 1-5: Percentage of Participants With Ocular AEsFrom study start through end of study (Up to approximately 58 months)
Part 1: Change in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) Over TimeFrom Baseline up to Week 16BCVA will be measured via Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart at a starting distance of 4 meters using a set of three precision VisionTM or lighthouse distance acuity charts (modified ETDRS Charts 1, 2, and R) prior to dilating eyes by a trained and certified visual acuity (VA) examiner. The range of EDTRS is 0 to 100 letters. Higher scores indicate improvement in VA.
Parts 2-4: Change in BCVA Over TimeFrom Baseline up to Week 28BCVA will be measured via ETDRS chart at a starting distance of 4 meters using a set of three precision VisionTM or lighthouse distance acuity charts (modified ETDRS Charts 1, 2, and R) prior to dilating eyes by a trained and certified VA examiner. The range of EDTRS is 0 to 100 letters. Higher scores indicate improvement in VA.
Part 5: Change From Baseline in BCVA Averaged Over Weeks 52 and 56From Baseline up to Week 56BCVA will be measured via ETDRS chart at a starting distance of 4 meters using a set of three precision VisionTM or lighthouse distance acuity charts (modified ETDRS Charts 1, 2, and R) prior to dilating eyes by a trained and certified VA examiner. The range of EDTRS is 0 to 100 letters. Higher scores indicate improvement in VA.
