About this study

The purpose of this study is to improve port wine stain therapeutic outcome in response to laser therapy. The researcher want to determine whether the combined use of pulsed dye laser therapy and topical ranibizumab will improve port wine stain therapeutic outcome.

Read the detailed description

Combined use of pulsed dye laser to induce port wine stain blood vessel injury, and ranibizumab to prevent port wine stain blood vessel angiogenesis and recanalization after laser therapy, will improve port wine stain lesion blanching.

After pulsed dye laser treatment of the entire port wine stain, topical ranibizumab will be applied to two of the test sites for two weeks following pulsed dye laser therapy. The degree of port wine stain blanching which will be quantified objectively using visible reflectance spectroscopy measurements. port wine stain test site blanching responses following the combined use of pulsed dye laser and topical ranibizumab will be compared with pulsed dye laser only and with the baseline controls.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Ranibizumab and Pulsed Dye Laser in people with Port-Wine Stain, run by University of California, Irvine.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Nov 2022. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Port Wine Stain response to laser treatment (time frame: 8 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 1 Nov 2022.
