Percentage of Subjects With an Improvement in Study Eye Severity of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) (ETDRS DR Severity Score or DRSS) of ≥ 2 Steps
Change from baseline to Week 48 in Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale Score in Study Eye by visit in the modified intent-to-treat population. ETDRS DR severity levels 10-85; ETDRS Steps 1-12
Time frame: Baseline to Week 48
Summary of Subjects With a Worsening in the Study Eye DRSS of ≥ 2 Steps at Week 48
Worsening of Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Score (DRSS) severity of ≥ 2 steps in study eyes at Week 48 (compared to placebo group) Grading will follow Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale (DRSS) criteria. DRSS grades ranging from 10-85 will be converted to an ordinal score ranging from 1-11. ETDRS DRSS Level 10 = No retinopathy ETDRS DRSS Level 20 = Very mild NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 35 = Mild NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 43 = Moderate NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 53 = Severe NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 61 = Mild PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 65 = Moderate PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 71-75 = High-Risk PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 81-85 = Advanced PDR
Time frame: Baseline to Week 48
Mean Change From Baseline in DRSS in the Study Eye at Week 48
Mean change from baseline in Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Score (DRSS) in the study eye at week 48. Note: Observed values at Week 48 instead of change from baseline values at Week 48 were analyzed Grading will follow Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale (DRSS) criteria. DRSS grades ranging from 10-85 will be converted to an ordinal score ranging from 1-11. ETDRS DRSS Level 10 = No retinopathy ETDRS DRSS Level 20 = Very mild NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 35 = Mild NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 43 = Moderate NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 53 = Severe NPDR ETDRS DRSS Level 61 = Mild PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 65 = Moderate PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 71-75 = High-Risk PDR ETDRS DRSS Level 81-85 = Advanced PDR
Time frame: Week 48
Summary of Subjects With an Improvement or Worsening in the Study Eye DRSS of ≥ 3 Steps at Week 48.
