About this study

Official title: The Multi-center Exploratory Clinical Trials for the Evaluation of Flexibility, Efficacy, and Safety of a Foldable Capsular Vitreous Body in the Treatment of Severe Retinal Detachment

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility, primary safety and efficacy of foldable capsular vitreous body (FCVB) in the treatment of retinal detachment, based on the multi-center clinical trial.

Read the detailed description

Previous clinical trial have demonstrated that foldable artificial vitreous body (FCVB),with balanced salt solution (BSS) filled in 11 patients during three-months observation,or silicone oil filled in 4 patients during a six-month observation respectively, can be transplanted into the vitreous body easily, and performances good safety and efficacy in the treatment of severe retinal detachment.

Current multi-center clinical trial was to determine the feasibility, primary safety and efficacy of FCVB with silicone oil filled in the treatment of retinal detachment in 120 patients.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
FCVB teamExperimentalthe vitreous cavity is tamponaded with the foldable capsular vitreous body (FCVB)
Receives: Device: foldable capsular vitreous body(FCVB)

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete retinal reattach rate at the 52 weeks after implantation of the FCVB

    Measured: 52 weeks after implantation of the FCVB

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Retinal reattach rate, Visual function,and Silicone oil change

    visual acuity, intraocular pressure, axial length, ocular inflammatory response, the number of corneal endothelial, emulsification rate of silicone oil, migration of silicone oil droplets into the anterior, chamber, anterior chamber angle and ciliary body change, morphological changes of the ocular and FCVB.

    Measured: Before surgery, 3days,1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks, 24 weeks, 36 weeks and 52 weeks after FCVB implantation surgery (If patients ask for the delay of removal of FCVB, the patients must received a review every three months)

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 10 inclusion and 14 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 May 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Lian Zhou (020-61165995, vesber_zl@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Complete retinal reattach rate at the 52 weeks after implantation of the FCVB (time frame: 52 weeks after implantation of the FCVB). 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 NCT01261533, which also lists 8 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 23 May 2013.
