About this study

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in prevention and control of ophthalmological neovascular diseases, in order to find a new strategy of treatment for ophthalmological neovascular diseases

Read the detailed description

Ophthalmological neovascular disease is one of the major causes of blindness in ocular diseases. Up to now, the major treatment strategies include: anti-VEGF therapy, laser therapy and surgery. Clinical treatment have revealed that intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF can effectively restrain neovascularization. Nevertheless, it requires repeated injections, may result in various complications, and may be ineffective in some patients. Therefore, it is necessary to find out other targets which causes retinal neovascularization, in order to find more effective treatments for patients who fail to respond to anti-VEGF therapy. Previous researches have shown that herb monomer (ACM-1) was effective in inhibiting leakage of retinal vessels and neovascularization. So in this study, patients with ophthalmological neovascular diseases will be treated with intravitreal injection of ACM-1, in order to investigate the role of intravitreal injection of ACM-1 therapy in prevention and control of ophthalmological neovascular diseases.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing ACM-1 in people with Neovascularization, Pathologic, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 6 inclusion and 13 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 20 May 2015. 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 China. 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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 Qianying Gao, PHD (13751829105/18922103820, gaoqy@mail.sysu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

fluorescence fundus angiography (time frame: 6 months after treatment). 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 NCT02448732, 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 20 May 2015.
