About this study

To assess the clinical and biological efficacity of preservative free NAAGA eyes drops in vernal keratoconjunctivitis

Read the detailed description

The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the clinical and biological efficacy of preservative free NAAGA eyedrops in VKC -by in particular the levels of ECP and MPO in tears- comparatively to the activity of levocabastine eyedrops.

Being tested
N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAXIA Sine)
Medical subject headings
Conjunctivitis, Allergic

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAXIA Sine) in people with Keratoconjunctivitis, Vernal, run by Laboratoires Thea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jul 2006. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ECP tear concentration. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00357019, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Jul 2006.
