To explore a more clinical feasible treatment regime with ranibizumab for DME to provide satisfactory treatment effect with a lower number of visits and injections.
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is the most common endocrine disease in developed countries, with prevalence estimates ranging between 2 to 5% of the world's population. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) and diabetic macular edema (DME) are common microvascular complications in patients with diabetes and may have a sudden and debilitating impact on visual acuity (VA), eventually leading to blindness. DME is a frequent manifestation of DR and is the major cause of visual loss in patients with DR. If left untreated, >50% of patients lose >2 lines of visual acuity (VA) within 2 years. DME mostly affects the working-age population, imposing a significant burden both on society and on individual patients - a burden that is expected to increase with the rising prevalence of diabetes.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ranibizumab labeled regime arm | Experimental | Ranibizumab (Anti VEGF) 0.5mg treatment will be given monthly and will be continued until maximum visual acuity is achieved (the patient's visual acuity is stable for three consecutive monthly assessments performed while on ranibizumab treatment). Thereafter patients should be monitored monthly for visual acuity. Treatment will be resumed when monitoring indicates loss of visual acuity due to DME. Monthly injections should then be administered until stable visual acuity is reached again for three consecutive monthly assessments (implying a minimum of two injections). The interval between two doses should not be shorter than 1 month |
|
| Ranibizumab wait and Extend regime arm | Experimental | Ranibizumab (Anti VEGF) 0.5 mg will be injected subsequently at baseline, month 1 and 2. After the three initial loading doses, patients will be called for the control visits 1 month later. If the visual acuity has reached a stable level and there is no sign of edema on OCT, patients will not receive intravitreal injection and will be called to come back 6 weeks later. The interval is increased by 2 weeks until a maximum of 8 weeks as long as the patient presents as stable regarding visual acuity, central retinal thickness and clinical findings. If there is a negative change, the interval is shortened back to 4 weeks. |

Inclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria
Women are considered post-menopausal and not of child bearing potential if they have had 12 months of natural (spontaneous) amenorrhea with an appropriate clinical profile (e.g. age appropriate, history of vasomotor symptoms) or have had surgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy) or tubal ligation at least six weeks ago. In the case of oophorectomy alone, only when the reproductive status of the woman has been confirmed by follow up hormone level assessment is she considered not of child bearing potential.
