A JAMA study identified factors linked to loss to follow-up in diabetic retinopathy and macular edema patients, including male gender, distance from care, and sociodemographic disparities. In Vietnam, six months of levofloxacin therapy showed a non-significant reduction in multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, emphasizing the balance between benefits and tolerability. Finally, Phase II trial showed pancigromab's promise in addressing cancer cachexia, with weight gain and symptom improvement, supporting further research.

Dr. Brian Roberts is a Senior VP and Head of Clinical Development at Rezolute which is developing first in class therapies in the treatment of metabolic diseases. In addition to working on a therapeutic for congenital hyperinsulinism, a rare disease, Rezolute is also in clinical trials with RZ402, an oral small molecule to treat diabetic macular edema which is showing an increase in prevalence due to the increase in the number of people suffering from diabetes. Brian explains, "DME or diabetic macular edema is a complication of diabetes. It's a subset of diabetic retinopathy. And like other complications of diabetes, the blood vessels in the eye become injured or corrupted. And this leads to inflammation in the leakage of fluid across the blood vessel into the eye. And in this case, into the macula of the retina, which is responsible for high-resolution vision. If that continues, it can result in progressive visual loss and even blindness." "Another problem with these therapies is that in some patients, they simply don't work. So the disease is not driven by vascular endothelial growth factor or VEGF. And so there really is a need for therapies that address a different mechanism and that allow the earlier treatment of disease before the disease gets difficult to control. And that's where our oral therapeutic with a different mechanism of action comes into play." "First and foremost, it represents a different mechanism, or a different way, to target the disease. RZ402 is a plasma kallikrein inhibitor. The kallikrein system is involved in the promotion of inflammation and vascular leakage. And it's part of normal physiology around the body to really promote the fight against infection or injury." @RezoluteBio #RezoluteBio #Biotech #DME #Medicines #Innovation #RareDisease #MetabolicDiseases #DiabeticMacularEdema #DiabeticRetinopathy RezoluteBio.com Download the transcript here

Dr. David Dyer is the Chief Retina Specialist for Alimera Sciences, a publicly-traded company specializing in the development and commercialization of prescription ophthalmology treatments for the management of retinal diseases. Having high blood sugar over time can damage the retinal blood vessels that bring nutrients to the retina, creating diabetic retinopathy. Alimera has developed a delivery platform to inject their drug Iluvien into the eye to treat the resulting diabetic macular edema. David explains, "So with retinal diseases, you're usually talking about diseases within the nerve fiber layer of the retina, the retinal vessels, or in the tissue that is underneath the retina that supports some of the retinal function. And that includes diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, vein occlusions, sometimes you can get detachments of the retina, and there are many other disorders, but those are the most common." "The treatment for diabetic macular edema typically involves injecting medications into the eye. That sounds horrible, but we can actually numb up the eye, usually, with a series of numbing drops, and with a very tiny needle, we can inject medicine into the center of the eye, and that medicine diffuses into the retina." "Iluvien is a sustained-release steroid. It's a little pellet, like a little tiny piece of rice, and we can inject that into the eye in the office, and it slowly dissolves over a period of three years, and it releases a steroid into the eye. The steroid works specifically on diabetic macular edema or the swelling in the central vision, and it decreases swelling." @AlimeraSciences $ALIM #Iluvien #NewDayStudy #DMEandME #DiabeticMacularEdema #Ophthamology #Diabetes #Vision AlimeraSciences.com Download the transcript here

Better Edge : A Northwestern Medicine podcast for physicians

Diabetic macular edema (DME), an accumulation of fluid in the retina from leaking blood vessels, is a major cause of visual acuity loss worldwide. Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections are a standard treatment today. VEGF is a protein that stimulates leakage from blood vessels, so blocking the protein can help reduce edema, or swelling of the retina. Joining the podcast is Lee Jampol, MD, who recently co-authored a study published in JAMA that found that waiting to start injection treatments until patients began to experience vision loss had similar outcomes when compared to starting injection treatments as soon as the condition was diagnosed. The injections are time consuming, costly and can carry the risk of harmful side effects, so waiting until the treatment is necessary has advantages for both the patient and providers.

Introduction: To evaluate the effect of alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) on the occurrence of diabetic macular edema. Methods: Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, multinational study. Patients were randomized to the treatment group with 600 mg ALA per day or the placebo group. Every 6 months stereo fundus photographs, HbA1c levels, and an ophthalmological examination were documented. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of clinically significant macular edema (CSME) within a follow-up period of 2 years. Results: We randomized 235 patients with type II diabetes mellitus into the treatment group (mean age 58.0 years) and 232 into the placebo group (mean age 57.9 years). Mean HbA1c level was 8.1, with no significant differences between the treatment (mean 8.2, SD +/- 1.35) and placebo groups (mean 8.1, SD +/- 1.29). HbA1c values remained constant over time. In the treatment and placebo groups, 84 and 86 patients (35.7 and 37.1%) had insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) with a median duration of diabetes of 9.3 versus 9.0 years in the placebo group. Visual acuity remained unchanged during the entire trial. Concerning the primary endpoint, the study provided a negative result, i.e. 26/235 patients in the treatment group and 30/232 patients in the placebo group developed CSME. Confirmatory intention-to-treat analysis of the primary endpoint revealed no statistically significant difference between groups (log-rank test, p = 0.7108, HR = 0.9057 with CI = 0.5355-1.5317). Median follow-up was identical (2.00 years). Conclusions: A daily dosage of 600 mg ALA does not prevent the occurrence of CSME in IDDM patients. Copyright (C) 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel

Background: Our purpose was to compare the effect of triamcinolone and bevacizumab (Avastin) on the retinal thickness and functional outcome in patients with diabetic macular edema. Methods and Materials: A collective of 32 patients, who had been treated by a single 4.0-mg intravitreal triamcinolone injection (group 1), was matched to 32 patients ('matched pairs'), who had received 3 injections of 1.25 mg of bevacizumab within 3 months in 4-week intervals (group 2). The outcome variables were changes in best corrected visual acuity (VA) and central retinal thickness 3 months after therapy. Results: Both groups did not differ regarding preoperative VA and central retinal thickness measured by optical coherence tomography. The baseline mean VA was 0.72 +/- 0.39 logMAR in group 1 and 0.73 +/- 0.39 logMAR in group 2 (p = 0.709). The mean central retinal thickness measured by optical coherence tomography was 548 +/- 185 mu m in group 1 and 507 +/- 192 mu m in group 2. While the patients in group 1 experienced a slight increase in VA of on average 0.7 lines following a single triamcinolone injection to a mean of 0.64 +/- 0.40 logMAR (p = 0.066) after 3 months, the patients in group 2 showed almost no effect on VA with an average increase of 0.2 lines to a mean VA of 0.72 +/- 0.30 logMAR (p = 0.948) following 3 intravitreal injections of bevacizumab. Comparing the effect on VA between both groups no statistically significant difference (p = 0.115) was noted. Concerning decrease in central retinal thickness both therapies were highly effective (p < 0.001 each), again, without statistically significant difference between the groups (p < 0.128). Conclusion: Our data suggest that a single triamcinolone injection may be as effective as a 3 times repeated intravitreal administration of bevacizumab for the treatment of diabetic macular edema. Further prospective trials should be performed. Copyright (C) 2010 S. Karger AG, Basel
