About this study

Official title: Comparative Study of the Safety and Effectiveness Between Ologen (OculusGen) Collagen Matrix Implant and Mitomycin-C in Glaucoma Filtering Surgery

The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of the ologen (OculusGen) Biodegradable Collagen Matrix Implant and the MMC group in filtration surgery.

Read the detailed description
  1. Study Objective: To compare the safety and effectiveness of the ologen (OculusGen) Biodegradable Collagen Matrix Implant and the MMC group in filtration surgery. The primary endpoint is to prove the effectiveness via the reduction of IOP, and the secondary endpoint is to prove the safety via the incidence of complications and adverse events.
  2. Study Design: The study is designed as an open-label, randomized, parallel, comparative study. Patients who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria and sign informed consent will be included. After enrollment, patients will be randomized into two groups: trabeculectomy with OculusGen implant or trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C.
  3. Follow-Up: There will be 7 post-operative and follow-up visits within 6 months of surgery: postoperative days 1, 7, 14, 30, 60, 90 and 180. A window of ± 7 days is allowed for the 30, 60, 90 day visits and ± 14 days for the 180 day visits. Further follow-up of subjects after the trial will be the responsibility of the investigator.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ologen collagen matrix in glaucoma filtering surgeryDevice

    If ologen™ treatment is used, the collagen matrix will be placed on top of the scleral flap under the conjunctiva after the trabeculectomy.

  • MMC in glaucoma filtering surgeryDrug

    Also called Mitomycin C

    If mitomycin -C is applied, a single cellulose sponge soaked with MMC (0.2mg/ml - 0.4mg/ml) is fashioned into an approximate 2.0 × 4.0 mm rectangular shape and applied to the scleral bed and subconjunctival space taking care to avoid exposure to the conjunctival wound edge. Application time is 2 minutes for MMC. Then, the area treated is copiously irrigated with balanced salt solution. After operation, appropriate anti-inflammatory and antibiotic eye-drops will be prescribed.

Study groups in NCT00472810
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
1Experimental20 patients will be recruited according to the enrollment acceptance criteria.Randomisation is performed using a sealed envelope system, where 40 shuffled envelopes designating the surgery to either trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C (MMC) and trabeculectomy with ologen™ Collagen matrix must be open before surgery. Then, patients are allocated and trabeculectomy is performed.If ologen™ treatment is used, the collagen matrix will be placed on top of the scleral flap under the conjunctiva after the trabeculectomy.
Receives: Device: ologen collagen matrix in glaucoma filtering surgery
2Active comparatorFollowing ethics committee approval, 20 patients with uncontrolled glaucoma will be randomised to trabeculectomy with mitomycin -C. Randomisation is performed. Then, trabeculectomy is performed
Receives: Drug: MMC in glaucoma filtering surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ologen collagen matrix in glaucoma filtering surgery and MMC in glaucoma filtering surgery in people with Glaucoma and Trabeculectomy, run by Pro Top & Mediking Company Limited at 1 site in Pakistan.

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 5 inclusion and 6 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 7 Oct 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Pakistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

the effectiveness via the reduction of IOP (time frame: 180 day). 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 NCT00472810, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 7 Oct 2011; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
