Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To provide ruboxistaurin treatment to patients who completed the B7A-MC-MBCM study (NCT00604383), and who are felt by the investigator to have the potential to benefit from the ruboxistaurin treatment. Patients must be off study drug for 6 to 18 months from completion of B7A-MC-MBCM before beginning B7A-MC-MBDV. Additional data will be gathered to determine the long-term safety and effect of ruboxistaurin on vision.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Sustained Moderate Visual Loss (SMVL) [Baseline, 18 months up to 24 months]

      The number of participants who experienced SMVL in at least 1 diabetic retinopathy (DR) study eye. SMVL was a ≥15-letter decrease from baseline in best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) that was sustained for the last 6 months of the study. Best-corrected ETDRS VA was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly).

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Vision Loss [End of Study MBCM to the beginning of Study MBDV, approximately 6 to 18 months]

      The number of participants whose best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) in at least 1 diabetic retinopathy (DR) study eye decreased by 15-letters or less from the conclusion of Study MBCM to the start of Study MBDV, 6 to 18 months later. Best-corrected ETDRS VA was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly).

    2. Sustained Moderate Vision Loss (SMVL), Long Term [Baseline in Study MBCM, 18 months up to 24 months in Study MBDV (for a total of 75 up to 87 months of SMVL, long term)]

      The number of participants who experienced SMVL, long term, in at least 1 diabetic retinopathy (DR) study eye. Long term SMVL was a ≥15-letter decrease from Study MBCM baseline in best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) that was sustained for the last 6 months of Study MBDV. VA was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly).

    3. Number of Participants With a Modified Sustained Moderate Vision Loss (mSMVL) Event by Time Interval [Baseline up to 6 months, 6 months up to 12 months, 12 months up to 18 months, 18 months up to 24 months, and 24 months up to 30 months]

      An mSMVL event was defined as a ≥15-letter decrease from Study MBDV baseline in best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) during any 6-month period, not just the last 6 months of the study. An mSMVL event was the first occurrence of an mSMVL in a participant, and the time at which the mSMVL began was used as the time of the event for the analysis. VA was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed.

    4. Visual Acuity [Month 24]

      Best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly). A higher score represented better VA.

    5. Number of Participants Receiving Treatment With Focal/Grid Photocoagulation [Baseline up to Month 24]

    6. Number of Participants Receiving Treatment With Panretinal Photocoagulation [Baseline up to Month 24]

    Outcome Measures

    1. Primary Outcome
    Title Sustained Moderate Visual Loss (SMVL)
    Description The number of participants who experienced SMVL in at least 1 diabetic retinopathy (DR) study eye. SMVL was a ≥15-letter decrease from baseline in best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) that was sustained for the last 6 months of the study. Best-corrected ETDRS VA was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly).

    5. Secondary Outcome
    Title Visual Acuity
    Description Best-corrected Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) was measured at 4 meters (m) using an eye chart with 5 letters per row of decreasing letter size in each successive row. Participants read the chart from the top down until reaching a row where ≥3 letters in the row could not be read correctly. If <20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, the chart was re-read at 1 m. The best-corrected ETDRS VA score was the total number of letters read correctly per eye at 4 m, plus a correction factor of 30 if ≥20 letters were read correctly at 4 m, plus the total number of letters read correctly at 1 m, if assessed. Best-corrected ETDRS VA scores ranged from 0 (no letters read correctly) to 100 (all letters read correctly). A higher score represented better VA.
