Show all 26Show fewer
  • Topical Eye Drop Dorzolamide Hydrochloride
  • Contraindications:
  • hypersensitivity to dorzolamide products, including sulfa allergies

  • dorzolamide is a sulfonamide that is absorbed systemically, sulfonamide hypersensitivity reactions may occur
  • angle-closure glaucoma

  • Contraindications:
  • hypersensitivity to any component of the product, including sulfa allergies
  • Precautions:
  • concomitant use of oral carbonic anhydrase inhibitors is not recommended
  • contact lens use; remove contact lenses prior to administration, allow 15 minutes before reinsertion
  • hypersensitivity to sulfonamides; severe reaction may occur; discontinue if signs or symptoms appear

About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of Patients With X-linked Retinoschisis (XLRS)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate subjects with X-linked retinoschisis in a clinical setting to collect data on disease progression.

Read the detailed description

The objective of the study is to evaluate subjects with XLRS in a clinical setting and gather data on disease progression. The data from this study will enhance the understanding of the natural history of this rare disease and will facilitate appropriately powered safety studies in a future gene therapy trial in humans.

Being tested
Dorzolamide 2% TID or brinzolamide 1% TID
Keywords
XLRS, RS1, maculoschisis
Medical subject headings
Retinoschisis

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dorzolamide 2% TID or brinzolamide 1% TIDDrug

    Dosing of all medications will be based upon standard of care. Standard dosing for the treatment of pediatric and adult patients with XLRS is as follows:

    • Topical dorzolamide 2% three times per day
    • Topical brinzolamide 1% three times per day
Study groups in NCT02331173
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Main Study GroupAll subjects enrolled in this study will be seen every 6 months following the screening visit. During the 3 main study visits, a series of tests will be performed to assess visual function. Some of these tests are part of routine care that patients would receive on an annual basis regardless of study participation. Other tests are being performed to determine if they are effective at monitoring disease progression in this population. For each of the 3 main study visits, testing may be spread over multiple days to ensure completion of all tests.
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor sub-studySubjects with maculoschisis may be offered topical treatment with CAIs. These subjects will be asked to visit the study site at 1 month and 3 months after starting topical treatment. During these additional visits, subjects will undergo a dilated eye exam, BCVA, and SD-OCT imaging to assess efficacy of treatment (i.e. reduction of maculoschisis).
Receives: Drug: Dorzolamide 2% TID or brinzolamide 1% TID

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease progression in subjects with XLRS

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Disease progression using microperimetry, a non-standard of care visual function test

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

  2. Disease progression using electroretinograms (ERGs), a non-standard of care visual function test

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

  3. Disease progression using the reading speed test, a non-standard of care visual function test

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

  4. Disease progression using the contrast sensitivity test, a non-standard of care visual function test

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

  5. Disease progression using a quality of life questionnaire

    Measured: Every 6 months for 18 months

  6. Change in maculoschisis while receiving carbonic anhydrase inhibitors

    Measured: All study visits, Months 1, 3, 6, 12, and 18

  7. Change in visual function while receiving carbonic anhydrase inhibitors

    Measured: All study visits, Months 1, 3, 6, 12, and 18

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of X-linked Retinoschisis and XLRS, run by Beacon Therapeutics at 3 sites 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 8 inclusion and 26 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 17 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Disease progression in subjects with XLRS (time frame: Every 6 months for 18 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02331173, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Nov 2017.
