BUTTERFLEYE: Study to Assess the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of Intravitreal Aflibercept Compared to Laser Photocoagulation in Patients With Retinopathy of Prematurity
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of aflibercept compared to laser in patients diagnosed with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). The secondary objectives of the study are to assess the need for a second treatment modality, to assess the recurrence of ROP in the study and to assess the safety and tolerability of aflibercept.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of patients with absence of active retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and of unfavorable structural outcomes [At Week 52 of chronological age]
For patients with both eyes enrolled in the study, both eyes must meet the endpoint.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Proportion of patients requiring intervention with a second treatment modality [Baseline to Week 52 of chronological age]
- Proportion of patients with recurrence of ROP [Through Week 52 of chronological age]
- Proportion of patients with ocular treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) [Baseline to Week 52 of chronological age]
- Proportion of patients with systematic TEAEs and SAEs [Baseline to Week 52 of chronological age]
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:

Presence of active ocular infection within 5 days of the first treatment
-
Advanced stages of ROP with partial or complete retinal detachment (ROP stage 4 and stage 5)
-
ROP involving only Zone III
NOTE: Other protocol defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply.
