About this study

In this study, markers of oxidative stress will be measured in the aqueous humour of stargardt disease, age related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy patients compared to controls.

Read the detailed description

People with Stargardt disease, age related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR) have decrease in central vision from damage to photoreceptors. One of the mechanisms causing damage is high levels of oxygen in the eye. This damage produces specific biomarkers that can be measured in eye fluid (aqueous humor). In this study, these biomarkers will be assessed in people with Stargardt disease, age related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, compared to controls.

What is being measured

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

  1. Aqueous levels of oxidized adducts on protein (i.e. oxidative biomarker) in patients with stargardt disease, AMD, DR and controls

    Baseline = Day of clinic visit for stargardt disease, AMD, DR patients and day of surgery for patients undergoing cataract surgery. No follow up is required.

    Measured: Baseline

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted23 Aug 2016 (estimated)
  2. Study start3 Jan 2017
  3. Primary completion6 Jun 2022
  4. Study completion22 Sep 2022

Why it stopped: There was no significant difference in our outcome measures between patients with disease versus controls suggesting that our hypothesis is not substantiated. Since this was the major objective of the study we decided to terminate the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stargardt Disease and Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Johns Hopkins University 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 4 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2022. 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 was stopped early (reason given: There was no significant difference in our outcome measures between patients with disease versus controls suggesting that our hypothesis is not substantiated. Since this was the major objective of the study we decided to terminate the study.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Aqueous levels of oxidized adducts on protein (i.e. oxidative biomarker) in patients with stargardt disease, AMD, DR and controls (time frame: Baseline). 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 26 Sep 2022.
