Effectively evaluating disease-modifying effects in clinical trials has posed a problem for clinical trialists and drug development. One method that has been proposed to evaluate disease-modifying effects has been the re-randomization of active group participants to discontinue the intervention after a period sufficient to produce therapeutic effects. We aimed to determine if this design would permit inferences regarding disease modification in a trial evaluating Pegaptanib sodium, an intra-ocular injection, for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration.
