About this study

This is a clinical pilot study to assess the feasibility of using a swept-source optical coherence tomography (SSOCT) system to perform noninvasive imaging of the retinal vasculature in patients with existing microvascular disease.

Read the detailed description

This project is being conducted under an abbreviated IDE. Subjects with existing retinal microvascular disease will be recruited from among the patients of the Duke Eye Center and/or its associated satellite clinics. Following informed consent, subjects undergo imaging, per established standard operating procedure, at the Duke University Medical Center/Duke Center or at one of the Duke Eye Center satellite clinics. Pharmacologic dilation of eyes will not be necessary for completion of imaging and will not be used for the purposes of this study. The resulting images will not be used in the clinical care of any of the subjects recruited for this project.

Subjects will be identified from patients presenting for ophthalmologic consultation at the Duke Eye Center and/or its satellite clinic locations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography in people with Retinal Vascular Disease, run by Duke University at 1 site in United States.

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 2 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 21 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 United States. 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: No active study enrollment for a 2 years.). 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?

OCT images and metrics derived from the OCT images (time frame: Day of imaging, approximately 1 hour). 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 21 Mar 2017.
