About this study

Official title: Feasibility of Measurement of High Order Aberrations in Late Stages Keratoconus by Using an Adaptive Optics Visual Simulator AOVIS-I

The instrument that will be used in the study is the Murcia monocular Adaptive Optics Visual simulator (AOVIS-I). The system provides an objective characterization of the optical quality of the patient's eye by application of wave-front sensing technology. The optical condition of every eye is represented by its wave aberration. This characterization overcomes the current description based only in refractive errors. This provides an accurate description of the optics of the eye based on the assessment of the whole set of ocular aberrations. The particular wave-front sensor is of a Hartmann-Shack type. One characteristics of this wave-front sensor is its high dynamic range allowing measuring highly aberrated eyes, such as patients with keratoconus.

Read the detailed description

The complete procedure in one patient takes less than 5 minutes and is completely non-invasive.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • classic aberrometer and aberrometer AOVIS-1Device

    Measurement of aberrations in early stages (1 and 2) of keratoconus as compared aberrometer AOVIS-1 with a "classic aberrometer".

  • Aberrometer AOVIS-IDevice

    Measurement of aberrations in high stages (3 and 4) of keratoconus. Objective characterization of the optical quality of the patient eye by application of wave-front sensing technology in late stage keratoconus The complete procedure in one patient takes less than 5 minutes in only one consultation and is completely non invasive. The optical measurements only involve the use of low power infrared laser

What is being measured

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

  1. The primary outcome of the study is to evaluate the AOVIS-I and its wave-front sensor with high dynamic range for measuring high-order aberrations in patients with late stages (3 and 4) of keratoconus

    Measured: at the 1st day

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. To evaluate the reliability of the measures in early stages (1 and 2) of keratoconus as compared with a "classic aberrometer".

    Measured: at the 1st day

  2. To describe the measures obtained in advanced stages (3 and 4) of keratoconus.

    Measured: at the 1st day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing classic aberrometer and aberrometer AOVIS-1 and Aberrometer AOVIS-I in people with Keratoconus, run by University Hospital, Toulouse at 1 site in France.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Mar 2017. 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 France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Lack of recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

The primary outcome of the study is to evaluate the AOVIS-I and its wave-front sensor with high dynamic range for measuring high-order aberrations in patients with late stages (3 and 4) of keratoconus (time frame: at the 1st day). 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 3 Mar 2017.
