Brief Summary:
This is a randomized, masked, active-controlled, parallel-group, multi-center study that will assess the efficacy of ILUVIEN as a baseline therapy in the treatment of Center Involving DME (CI-DME). The study will enroll patients who are either treatment naïve or have not received any DME treatments for the preceding 12 months as documented in medical records. Patients who received DME treatment >12 months before screening, must not have received >4 intravitreal injections. The study will compare 2 treatment regimens: ILUVIEN intravitreal implant (0.19 mg) followed by supplemental aflibercept as needed per protocol criteria (2 mg/0.05 mL), compared to intravitreal aflibercept loading dose (2 mg administered by intravitreal injection every 4 weeks for 5 consecutive doses) followed by supplemental aflibercept as needed per protocol criteria (2 mg/0.05 mL).

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The mean total number of supplemental aflibercept injections needed during the study [ Time Frame: Baseline to 18 months ]
    The mean total number of supplemental aflibercept injections needed during


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Proportion of subjects with 15, 10 and 5 letter (ETDRS) gains from baseline [ Time Frame: At 18 months ]
    Proportion of subjects with 15, 10 and 5 letter (ETDRS) gains from baseline

  2. Area under the curve (AUC) of Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 18 months ]
    Area under the curve (AUC) of Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)

  3. Mean change from baseline in Center Subfield Thickness (CST) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 18 months ]
    Mean change from baseline in Center Subfield Thickness (CST)

  4. Area under the curve (AUC) of Center Subfield Thickness (CST) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 18 months ]
    Area under the curve (AUC) of Center Subfield Thickness (CST)

  5. Mean change from baseline in the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire (NEI VFQ-25) composite score and subscale scores [ Time Frame: At 18 months ]
    The NEI VFQ-25 is a questionnaire that allows the individual to report on their level of visual function. Scores range from 0-100, with a score of 0 being the worst outcome and 100 being the best outcome.

  6. Safety Outcome Endpoints: The incidence and severity of treatment-related adverse events [ Time Frame: Baseline to 18 months ]
    The incidence and severity of treatment-related adverse events
