What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells.

    Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Grade 0.

    Measured: 8 days

  2. Percentage of Participants With Grade 0 Pain

    Ocular pain was defined as a positive sensation of the eye, including foreign body sensation, stabbing, throbbing, or aching. The scores ranged from 0=None to 5=Severe, were higher scores indicated worse pain.

    Measured: 8 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Flare.

    A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens will be performed without pupil dilation. Scattering of a slit lamp light beam when directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). The grades for flare were 0=None to 4=Very Severe effect.

    Measured: 8 days

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.

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?

Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells. (time frame: 8 days). 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?
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.
