Trial summary

The investigators would like to know if different imaging devices can improve the quality of images and visualization of imaged tissues. Also, the investigators would like to find out whether these changes are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Cohort A will consist of patients with AMD, recruited by PI when they come in to the clinic, with whom we will conduct medical record review and imaging procedures, using one of the research devices. Cohort B will consist of control subject with no ocular problems, with whom no record review will be conducted, but imaging will be conducted with study devices.

Who may be able to join

  • Normal, healthy participants and patients with AMD

Who cannot join

  • Those suffering from head, neck or other injury which makes them unable to position themselves in head restraint for imaging
  • Participants who are unable to maintain retinal fixation on a specified target
  • Participants unable to achieve sufficient pupil dilation and alignment stability for imaging to take place
  • Patients with media opacity which preclude high quality imaging will be excluded.
  • Exclusion criteria include vulnerable patients; patients under 18, pregnant, economically and educationally disadvantaged, decision impaired, or homeless people. We exclude pregnant women because pregnancy often can alter eye anatomy.

About this study

The investigators would like to know if different imaging devices can improve the quality of images and visualization of imaged tissues. Also, the investigators would like to find out whether these changes are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases. Using images of previous participants will allow us to demonstrate the advancement of different technologies, as well be used to allow comparisons between current technologies.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD), run by Doheny Image Reading Center 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 1 inclusion and 5 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 15 Feb 2019. 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 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?

Geographic Atrophy (time frame: 1 year). 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 15 Feb 2019.
