This is a clinical study where patients with diabetes and a vision threatening eye condition called "Diabetic Macular Edema" receive four injections into the eye at monthly intervals. The patients will already have tried the standard of care without complete success. The patients will be randomized to receive either a high dose, a low dose or a sham control treatment. The study will evaluate whether the new treatment improves vision and whether it changes the underlying course of the disease in the eye.

BCVA
Change from Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)
Time frame: 16 weeks
DRSS
Assessments of Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Score (DRSS, scale 10-85) to evaluate the percentage of eyes with a ≥2 step reduction in score from the baseline retinopathy severity as graded from fundus photography. Minimum and maximum values of the DRSS are 10 and 85, with the low end of the scale indicating absence of retinopathy which, as the score increases, so does the severity of the retinopathy such that a score of 85 is indicative of advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Time frame: 16 weeks
CST
Assessments of Central Subfold Thickness (CST) - analysis of covariance of change from baseline in the study eye at week 16
Time frame: 16 weeks
