Octreotide Acetate in Microspheres in Patients With Diabetic Retinopathy
A Randomized, Controlled Study on the Efficacy and Safety of Octreotide Acetate in Microspheres in the Therapy of Patients With Moderately Severe or Severe Non-Proliferate Diabetic Retinopathy (NPDR) or Low Risk Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy (PDR)

The most common ocular disease in patients with diabetes, diabetic retinopathy, is present in approximately 40% of diabetic patients; about 8% of diabetic patients have vision threatening diabetic retinopathy. Although intensive control of blood glucose has been shown to reduce the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy, intensive control of glucose is usually not achieved in clinical practice.
