About this study

Official title: Phase I/II Trial of TLC399 (ProDex) in Patients With Macular Edema Due to Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)

To determine whether TLC399 (ProDex) provides an ideal, safe, long-acting, dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) delivery system for the treatment of macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO).

Read the detailed description

<Part 1> An open-label, sequential dose escalation part to determine the DLT of TLC399 (ProDex) in patients with macular edema due to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) or branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). The safety results should be evaluated by Safety Monitor Committee regularly every 6 months and after last patient of each cohort completes DLT observation period. The SMC would advise or give permission for further dose escalation, de-escalation, or any study design adjustment. After the study drug administration, these patients will continue to be evaluated for efficacy and safety outcomes up to a period of 12 months unless the patient is withdrawn or discontinues the study.

  • Group R1: 0.24 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (20 µL)
  • Group 1: 0.36 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (30 µL)
  • Group 2: 0.6 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (50 µL)
  • Group 3: 0.6 mg DSP with 50 mM PL (50 µL)

<Part 2> An open-label, single-arm design to investigate the use of TLC399 (ProDex) in patients with macular edema due to CRVO or BRVO in one dose level selected from Part 1. The enrollment of subjects for analysis will include approximately 20 patients in total, inclusive of Part 1 and Part 2 for the selected dose group. The safety and efficacy outcomes will be assessed for up to 12 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing TLC399 in people with Central Retinal Vein Occlusion With Macular Edema and Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion With Macular Edema, run by Taiwan Liposome Company at 6 sites in Taiwan.

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 5 inclusion and 35 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in Taiwan. 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 combined 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.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Dec 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Part 1: Dose-limiting Toxicity (DLT) (time frame: 4 weeks). The study lists 2 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 23 Dec 2021.
