Pivotal Trial
Summary
This trial will test a new drug to help people with swelling in the middle of their eye caused by inflammation.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for women with uveitic macular edema, which causes swelling in the eye. They must have a certain level of vision impairment and agree to use contraception or abstain from sex. Those with recent major eye surgeries, infections like syphilis or tuberculosis, HIV, uncontrolled glaucoma, or who've used certain medications recently can't join.
What is being tested?
The study tests Vamikibart's effectiveness and safety against uveitic macular edema compared to a sham treatment (placebo). Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Vamikibart or the sham intervention to see if there's an improvement in their condition.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of Vamikibart are not listed here, similar treatments may cause eye irritation or redness, increased intraocular pressure, cataract formation, and potential risk of infection due to immune system suppression.
