A Study to Learn How Safe the Study Drug Intravitreal (Given by an Injection Into the Eye) Aflibercept is in Participants in India With Diabetic Macular Edema
Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have diabetic macular edema (DME). Diabetic macular edema (DME) is a complication of diabetes. Consistently high blood sugar due to poor glucose control over time can damage small blood vessels in the body, including the eye. Damaged blood vessels in the eye may lead to leakage of the fluid into the central part of the retina at the back of the eye (also called macula) where sharp, straight-ahead vision occurs. Fluid accumulation makes the macula swell and results in reduced vision. If not treated, DME can result in complete loss of central detailed vision. The study treatment intravitreal aflibercept (also called BAY865321) works by blocking VEGFR-1 receptor activity. Intravitreal aflibercept is already approved in over 105 countries for doctors to prescribe to people with DME. In India, aflibercept is approved conditionally for people with DME. The reason for this is that the sponsor was asked to collect more safety data for intravitreal aflibercept in Indian people with DME. The main purpose of this study is to collect more data to learn how safe intravitreal aflibercept is in Indian people with DME. To see how safe intravitreal aflibercept is, the researchers will collect the information/data on the medical problems the participants may have during the study, and which may or may not be related to the study treatment. These medical problems are also known as "adverse events" (AEs). AEs will be categorized according to relatedness, seriousness, discontinuation of therapy, action taken and outcome. The study participants will receive aflibercept as an injection directly into the space in the back of the eye once every 4 weeks in the first 5 months, followed by one injection every 8 weeks for the rest of the study duration. Only one eye per participant to be treated with aflibercept will be considered for the study. Each participant will be in the study for approximately 52 weeks. The treatment durat
