About this study

Official title: Intravitreal Ketorolac for Chronic Uveitis:A Phase I Investigational Safety Study

Intraocular delivery of ketorolac will be an effective means to treat inflammation and macular edema and prevent structural complications and vision loss in patients with uveitis who are unable to tolerate corticosteroids due to their side effects.

Read the detailed description

A Phase I safety study of intravitreal ketorolac in patients with chronic inflammation and complications due to inflammation who have either failed medical therapy or who cannot tolerate corticosteroids due to side effects.

Specific Aims

  1. Test the safety of intraocular injection of 4mg of ketorolac in patients who have intractable uveitis or complications of uveitis such as chronic macular edema who are unable to tolerate corticosteroids due to their side effects.
  2. Test the efficacy of intraocular 4m ketorolac of treating inflammation or structural complications of inflammation in patients with uveitis who are unable to tolerate corticosteroids due to their side effects.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Intravitreal Ketorolac in people with Inflammation, run by Vanderbilt University at 1 site 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 31 Dec 2013. 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 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. 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 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?

Safety (time frame: 90 days). 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 NCT01164085, 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 31 Dec 2013.
