What is being measured

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

  1. Participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability

    Measured: up to 36 months

  2. Proportion of patients achieving the criteria for clinically inactive posterior segment uveitis

    Measured: up to 36 months

  3. Mean time to achieve the criteria for clinically inactive posterior segment uveitis

    Measured: up to 36 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Proportion of patients experiencing clinically active posterior segment uveitis in patients discontinuing AIN457 treatment

    Measured: up to 36 months

  2. Time to recurrence of clinically active posterior segment uveitis after discontinuation of AIN457 treatment

    Measured: up to 36 months

  3. Time to resolution of a recurrence of clinically active posterior segment uveitis in patients discontinuing AIN457 and treated only with the reinitiation of AIN457

    Measured: up to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing AIN457 in people with Uveitis, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals.

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 4 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Participants with adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability (time frame: up to 36 months). 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 6 Dec 2013.
