Trial summary

Macular foveoschisis (MF) is a common complication of pathological myopia, which is characterized by choroid-retinal degeneration and vision impairment. Although pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is the primary method for MF treatment, there is still a large proportion of recurrent MF due to the extremely long global axial… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Correlation of Structural and Visual Function Changes in Myopia Foveoschisis Patients Undergoing Macular Buckle Surgery

Macular foveoschisis (MF) is a common complication of pathological myopia, which is characterized by choroid-retinal degeneration and vision impairment. Although pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is the primary method for MF treatment, there is still a large proportion of recurrent MF due to the extremely long global axial length and posterior staphyloma. Macular buckling (MB) surgery aims at counteracting the traction exerted by the posterior staphyloma, and has been proven an effective method for treating MF. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is widely used for the structural analysis of MF. Multifocol electroretinogram (mfERG) is an objective examination for visual evaluation. To our knowledge, there is a lack of data on the comprehensive visual function evaluations of MF patients associated with OCT findings. Our clinical trial aims to provide the structural and functional relationship in MF patients undergoing MB surgery, and find out potential factors to determine the visual prognosis.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of High Myopia, 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 2 inclusion and 4 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Sep 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 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.

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?

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?

change from baseline OCT at 6 months (time frame: 6 month postoperatively). The study lists 2 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 19 Sep 2019.
