A Phase I/II Trial for Intravitreous Treatment of Severe Ocular Von Hippel-Lindau Disease Using a Combination of the PDGF Antagonist E10030 and the VEGF Antagonist Ranibizumab
United States3 participantsStarted 2017-01-23
Plain-language summary
Background: People with Von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease may experience significant vision loss as a result of retinal capillary hemangiomas (RCH), the most common and often earliest manifestation of VHL.
Objective: To investigate the safety and possible efficacy of combination investigational treatment with serial intravitreal injections of E10030, a PDGF-B antagonist, and ranibizumab, a VEGF-A antagonist, in participants with severe ocular VHL disease.
Design: Three participants with severe ocular VHL disease will receive the combination investigational treatment in one eye and will be followed for 104 weeks.
Primary Outcome: The safety of the combination investigational treatment, assessed by tabulation of adverse events reported through Week 52.

Exclusion criteria
. Participant must understand and sign the informed consent.
. Participant must be 18 years of age or older.
. Participant must have a diagnosis of VHL disease. In accordance with established criteria for diagnosis, any one of the following will be considered sufficient evidence that VHL disease is present:
. Any female participant of childbearing potential must not be pregnant or breast-feeding, must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and must be willing to undergo pregnancy testing immediately prior to each treatment.
. Any female participant of childbearing potential and any male participant able to father children must have (or have a partner who has) had a hysterectomy or vasectomy, be completely abstinent from intercourse or must agree to practice two effective methods of contraception throughout the course of the study and for at least two months following the last administration of combination investigational treatment.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
. Participant has a history or evidence of significant cardiac disease (for example, use of cardiac medications aside from agents to control blood pressure, past acute coronary syndrome, past myocardial infarction, past revascularization procedure or arrhythmias requiring past or present treatment).
. Participant has a history of stroke or transient ischemic attack.
. Participant has used systemic medication with significant anti-VEGF or anti-PDGF activity within 30 days of study entry or expects use of such a medication within 12 months of study entry.
