About this study

Purpose: To determine the surgical outcomes of the grading versus classic Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition (IOAT) technique in treatment of patients with asymmetric dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) and inferior oblique overaction (IOOA).

Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, a total of 38 patients with IOOA of >+1 and a minimum DVD difference of 5pd between their two eyes will be included. Comprehensive ophthalmic examinations including visual acuity assessment, measurements of noncyclo- and cycloplegic refraction as well as ocular deviation, biomicroscopic and funduscopic evaluation will be performed at baseline and repeated three months after the surgery. The function of extra ocular muscles will be evaluated by duction and version movements denoting from -4 (underaction) to +4 (overaction) grades. Also, IOOA will be graded as +1 to +4 according to the covering of the cornea under the superior eyelid during the ocular movement towards supra-nasal direction. The difference of DVD≥5pd between two eyes will be considered as asymmetric DVD. All patients will be randomized in the two groups to undergo IOAT surgical procedure; in the classic group, IO muscle will be sutured to the sclera at the level of inferior rectus (IR) insertion at its temporal border, without considering the asymmetric DVD between the two eyes; while in the grading group, IO muscle of the eye with more severe DVD will be sutured at the level of IR insertion and IO muscle of the eye with lower magnitude of DVD will be sutured 2mm posterior to the sclera to consider the preoperative DVD difference between the two eyes.

Being tested
Grading Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgery, Classic Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgery

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Grading Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgeryProcedure or surgery

    in the grading group, IO muscle of the eye with more severe DVD will be sutured at the level of IR insertion and IO muscle of the eye with lower magnitude of DVD will be sutured 2mm posterior to the sclera to consider the preoperative DVD difference between the two eyes.

  • Classic Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgeryProcedure or surgery

    in the classic group, IO muscle will be sutured to the sclera at the level of inferior rectus (IR) insertion at its temporal border, without considering the asymmetric DVD between the two eyes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Grading Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgery and Classic Inferior Oblique Anterior Transposition surgery in people with Asymmetric Dissociated Vertical Deviation, run by Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 9 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 2 May 2017. 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 Iran. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 zhaleh rajavi, MD (009822591616, labbafi@hotmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Difference of DVD between two eyes (time frame: three months after the surgery). 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 2 May 2017.
