Trial summary

Application of antimetabolite agents such as mitomycin_c has improved trabeculectomy results and better control of intraocular pressure complications such as corneal endothelial cell loss. However, Mitomycin_c can be applied remain a concern before or after sclera flap dissection. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss Following Trabeculectomy With mitomycin_c Application Before Versus After Sclera Flap Dissection

Application of antimetabolite agents such as mitomycin_c has improved trabeculectomy results and better control of intraocular pressure complications such as corneal endothelial cell loss. However, Mitomycin_c can be applied remain a concern before or after sclera flap dissection. Mitomycin_c application after sclera flap dissection probably increases corneal endothelial cell loss. This study compares Mitomycin_c application two methods: before and after sclera flap dissection with regard to success rate and complication. patients on base of Mitomycin_c application time (1-2-3) minutes will be match randomise in to two groups( before and after sclera flap dissection) corneal. Endothelial cell density, polymorphism, polymegathism and intraocular pressure before and one month, three months, six months after surgery will measured.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Mitomycin_c in people with Glaucoma Patients Scheduled for Trabeculectomy, run by Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 2 inclusion and 1 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 17 Feb 2011. 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 Iran. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

corneal endothelial cell density (time frame: six month). The study lists 3 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.

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 17 Feb 2011.
