Study Summary

Study GR41675 is a Multicenter, Randomized Study in Participants with Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) Without Center-Involved Diabetic Macular Edema (CI-DME) to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety of the Port Delivery System with Ranibizumab (PDS) Relative to the Comparator Arm

Primary Outcome

ETDRS-DRSS classifies diabetic retinopathy (DR) into 12 severity steps ranging from absence of retinopathy to advanced proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). DRSS grades= 10 (DR absent) - 85 (very advanced PDR), DRSS 90 = ungradable. All DRSS values are converted into a 12-level scale, from 1 (DR absent) to 12 (very advanced PDR), allowing derivation of ≥2-step change from baseline for post-baseline assessment. A lower score represents less advanced diabetic retinopathy. The Cochran-Mantel Ha
