Effect of Ruboxistaurin on Clinically Significant Macular Edema - Full Text View

Purpose

The purpose of the study is to test the hypothesis that oral administration of ruboxistaurin for approximately 24 months will reduce the baseline to endpoint changes in macular thickness, as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT), in patients with clinically significant macular edema.
