Trial summary

NAION produces an ischemic insult in the optic nerve head presumably due to the hypoperfusion of the short ciliary arteries that supply it. Intravenous injection of glucocorticoid have proven to be effective in treatment of Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy,but have some side effects. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Retrobulbar Triamcinolone Acetonide Injection in the Treatment of Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy

NAION produces an ischemic insult in the optic nerve head presumably due to the hypoperfusion of the short ciliary arteries that supply it.

Intravenous injection of glucocorticoid have proven to be effective in treatment of Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy,but have some side effects. the investigators believe that offering them Retrobulbar Triamcinolone Acetonide Injection that might halt the progression of the visual acuity and visual field loss if our hypothesis is correct, would greatly improve their chances of avoiding blindness.

Being tested
Triamcinolone Acetonide, placebo
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Triamcinolone Acetonide in people with Triamcinolone Acetonide and Optic Neuropathy, Ischemic, run by Second Military Medical University.

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 1 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 30 Mar 2015. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact DONGYAN PAN, Dr (86-21-31161995, campus@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes of Best corrected visual acuity(BCVA) (time frame: baseline and 1month, 3month). 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 30 Mar 2015.
