What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cumulative Proportion (CU) of Participants (Par.) With an Event, as Measured as a Percentage, for Posterior Subcapsular Opacity (P)

    An event for P (opacity in the lens positioned just anterior to the posterior lens capsule and characterized by the posterior migration of lens epithelial cells from the lens bow) is defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline in Lens Opacities Classification System, Version III (LOCS III; system used for the grading and comparison of cataract severity and type based on standard color photographic transparencies) grade for P (range=0.1 [lens clear] to 5.9 [lens unclear]), in either eye. Data represent the Kaplan-Meier estimate for the CU of par. with an event of P based on a lifetest table.

    Measured: Baseline; Weeks 12, 24, 36, 52, 64, 76, 88, and 104

  2. Cumulative Proportion of Participants, as Measured as a Percentage, With an Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Event

    An event for IOP is defined as an increase of 7 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) or greater from baseline in IOP, in either eye, using Goldmann Applanation Tonometry (GAT). GAT is a commonly used method of determining approximate intraocular pressure. The data below represent the Kaplan-Meier estimate for the cumulative proportion of participants with an IOP event based on a lifetest table.

    Measured: Baseline; Weeks 12, 24, 36, 52, 64, 76, 88, and 104

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Change From Baseline in LOCS III Posterior Subcapsular Opacity at Week 52 and Week 104

    An event for P (opacity in the lens positioned just anterior to the posterior lens capsule and characterized by the posterior migration of lens epithelial cells from the lens bow) is defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline in LOCS III (system used for the grading and comparison of cataract severity and type based on standard color photographic transparencies) grade for P (range=0.1 [lens clear] to 5.9 [lens unclear]), in either eye. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 and Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  2. Number of Participants With the Indicated Change From Baseline in LOCS III Posterior Subcapsular Opacity by Increments of 0.1 at Weeks 52 and 104

    An event for P is defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline in LOCS III (classification system based on standard color photographic transparencies) grade for P (range=0.1 [lens clear] to 5.9 [lens unclear]), in either eye. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 and Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  3. Change From Baseline in LOCS III Cortical Opacity (C) at Week 52 and Week 104

    An event for C (an opacity starting at the outer edge of the lens and progressing toward the center) is defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline in LOCS III (system used for the grading and comparison of cataract severity and type based on standard color photographic transparencies) grade for C (range=0.1 [lens clear] to 5.9 [lens unclear]), in either eye. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 and Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  4. Number of Participants With the Indicated Change From Baseline in Cortical Opacity by Increment Categories of >=0.3, >=0.5, and >=1.0 at Weeks 52 and 104

    An event for C (an opacity starting at the outer edge of the lens and progressing toward the center) is defined as an increase of >=0.3 from baseline in LOCS III (system used for the grading and comparison of cataract severity and type based on standard color photographic transparencies) grade for C (range=0.1 [lens clear] to 5.9 [lens unclear]), in either eye. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 and Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  5. Change From Baseline in LOCS III Nuclear Opacity (NO) at Week 52 and Week 104

    Nuclear opacity refers to the opacity in the central nucleus of the eye.The range for NO is 0.1 (no opacity) to 6.9 (maximum opacity). Change from baseline in NO was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 or Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  6. Change From Baseline in Nuclear Color (NC) at Week 52 and Week 104

    Nuclear color is associated with the force required to compress a lens to 75% of its original depth. The range for NC is 0.1 (no opacity) to 6.9 (maximum opacity). Change from baseline in NC was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 or Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  7. Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Weeks 52 and 104

    An event for IOP is defined as an increase of 7 mm Hg or greater from baseline in IOP, in either eye, using Goldmann Applanation Tonometry. Participants without post-baseline ophthalmic exam data were censored at the randomization date. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 or Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  8. Number of Participants With the Indicated Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) by Increments of 1 mm Hg at Week 52

    An event for IOP is defined as an increase of 7 mm Hg or greater from baseline in IOP, in either eye, using Goldmann Applanation Tonometry. Participants without post-baseline ophthalmic exam data were censored at the randomization date. Change from baseline was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 52 value.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 52

  9. Number of Participants With the Indicated Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) by Increments of 1 mm Hg at Week 104

    An event for IOP is defined as an increase of 7 mm Hg or greater from baseline in IOP, in either eye, using Goldmann Applanation Tonometry. Participants without post-baseline ophthalmic exam data were censored at the randomization date. Change from baseline in IOP was calculated by subtracting the baseline value from the Week 104 value.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 104

  10. Change From Baseline in Logarithm of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (LogMAR) Visual Acuity (VA) Using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) Charts at Week 52 and Week 104

    ETDRS charts are used to measure VA (the ability to resolve fine image details). Participants must have had a best-corrected distance VA of =< 0.18 on the LogMAR scale using ETDRS charts in both eyes measured separately. The LogMAR scale (expressed as the [decadic] logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution [range from +1.00 to -0.30]) converts the geometric sequence of a traditional chart to a linear scale. It measures VA loss; positive values indicate vision loss, whereas negative values denote normal or better VA. A lower LogMAR value indicates better VA.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 52, and Week 104

  11. Percent Change From Baseline in the Funduscopic Horizontal Cup-to-disc Ratio at Week 104

    The funduscopic horizontal cup-to-risk ratio assesses the progression of glaucoma. Percent change from baseline in funduscopic horizontal cup-to-disc ratio at Week 104 was calculated by substracting the baseline value from the Week 104 value (both expressed as a percent). The cup-to-disc ratio compares the diameter of the "cup" portion of the optic disc with the total diameter of the optic disc. A large cup-to-disc ratio may imply glaucoma or other pathology.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 104

  12. Change From Baseline in the Daily Reflective Total Nasal Symptom Score (rTNSS) for the Indicated Study Periods

    rTNSS was evaluated on a 4-point categorical scale (sum of the scores for rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, nasal itching, and sneezing; range=0-12). The data collected were used as a measure for treatment compliance. The scores on the scale were based on the severity of each nasal symptom: 0=none (symptom is not present); 1=mild (sign/symptom is clearly present but minimal awareness; easily tolerated); 2=moderate (definite awareness of sign/symptom that is bothersome but tolerable); 3=severe (sign/symptom is hard to tolerate; causes interference with activities of daily living and/or sleeping).

    Measured: Baseline, Weeks 1 to 26, Weeks 27 to 52, Weeks 53 to 78, and Weeks 79 to 104

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing fluticasone furoate nasal spray in people with Rhinitis, Allergic, Perennial, run by GlaxoSmithKline at 56 sites in United States.

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 28 inclusion and 53 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 13 Jan 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 56 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Mar 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Cumulative Proportion (CU) of Participants (Par.) With an Event, as Measured as a Percentage, for Posterior Subcapsular Opacity (P) (time frame: Baseline; Weeks 12, 24, 36, 52, 64, 76, 88, and 104). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT00682643, 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 13 Jan 2017.
