A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Design, Active-controlled Phase 3 Study to Determine Efficacy and Safety Following Administration of SMO1 in Patients With Retinal Vein Occlusive Macular Edema
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-masked, parallel-group, active-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SMO1 (Dexamethasone 700μg intravitreal implant) compared with the reference drug (Dexamethasone 700μg intravitreal implant) in patients with retinal vein occlusion (RVO)-associated macular edema. Participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either the reference drug or the investigational product, SMO1, following screening and baseline assesments. Randomization is centrally managed and stratified by RVO subtype (branch or central). Patients are followed for 6 months with scheduled visits to assess efficacy and safety endpoints. A total of 312 participants (156 per treatment arm) will be enrolled.
• 19 years of age or older
• A study eye diagnosed with macular edema following i) branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) within 12 months prior to the screening visit or; ii) central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) within 9 months prior to the screening visit
• A study eye with CRT measured to be 300μm or greater using OCT at the screening visit
• A study eye with BCVA between 34 and 68 letters at the screening visit and the baseline (comparable to Snellen score between 20/200 and 20/50)
• Provided written informed consent voluntarily after receiving a full explanation of the clinical trial
