About this study

This study investigates the variations in the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness during uncomplicated anterior and intermediate uveitis, respectively. The objectives are to 1 ) confirm the RNFL thickening during an uncomplicated anterior uveitis as described in the literature, 2) measure the RNFL thickness during an uncomplicated intermediate uveitis specifically and 3) describe the variation in time of RNFL thickness during the two types of uveitis.

Read the detailed description

Thirty six individuals (18 with anterior uveitis and 18 with intermediate uveitis) will be recruited at the Centre universitaire d'ophtalmologie du CHU de Québec. RNFL thickness will be measured with optical coherence tomography at 3 times. For anterior uveitis, the RNFL thickness will be measured at presentation, 1 week and 4 to 6 weeks. For intermediate uveitis, the RNFL thickness will be measured at presentation, 4 to 6 weeks and 4 months. The initial thickness will be studied for each type of uveitis and progression over time will be studied also for each type of uveitis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Anterior Uveitis and Intermediate Uveitis, run by CHU de Quebec-Universite Laval at 1 site in Canada.

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 2 inclusion and 7 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 27 Jan 2021. 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 Canada. 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?

Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in anterior uveitis (time frame: At time 0). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 27 Jan 2021.
