Trial summary

This is a prospective, single center, non-comparative, 90-day follow-up, post-market clinical investigation of etacoat in patients undergoing cataract surgery. The performance is evaluated by the preservation of endothelial cells measured by specular microscopy at the follow-up visit in comparison to baseline values. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study patients will be recruited by the investigator, among patients scheduled to receive a standard cataract surgery taking inclusion and exclusion criteria into account. The investigator may also offer participation in the study to potential candidates identified in their patient database.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients indicated for cataract surgery via the anterior chamber
  • A negative urine pregnany test at Visit 1 or 2
  • Capability to understand information about the investigation, including patients' obligations, and willingness to take part, as evidenced by signed and dated informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Patient who are known to be hypersensitive to HPMC or other components of the device
  • Patients with corneal scars or corneal dystrophies interfering with study measurements
  • Abnormal intraocular pressure which would interfere with surgery and follow up (in opinion of the investigator)
  • Any other condition that in the opinion of the investigator would interfere with the participation in this investigation
  • Any person dependent on the investigator or employees of the investigation site institution or the Sponsor
  • Current or previous (within 30 days of enrollment) treatment with another investigational drug and/or medical device or participation in another clinical study
  • Patients whose participation in clinical trials is prohibited by the Austrian Medical Devices Act

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Single Center, Non-comparative, 90-Day Follow-up, Postmarket Clinical Investigation of Etacoat in Patients With Cataract Surgery Via the Anterior Chamber

This is a prospective, single center, non-comparative, 90-day follow-up, post-market clinical investigation of etacoat in patients undergoing cataract surgery.

The performance is evaluated by the preservation of endothelial cells measured by specular microscopy at the follow-up visit in comparison to baseline values.

etacoat

What participants receive

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

  • etacoatDevice

    Etacoat is a HPMC formulation intended to be used in ophthalmic anterior segment cataract surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Specular microscopy to measure the preservation of endothelium

    Measured: 90 days post surgery compared to baseline

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Specular microscopy to measure the corneal thickness

    Measured: post surgery, 1 day and 90 days post surgery compared to baseline

  2. Intraocular pressure measurement

    Measured: post surgery, 1 day and 90 days post surgery compared to baseline

  3. Questionnaire to assess the satisfaction with the application

    Questionnaire contains the subjective evaluation by the investigator of the IMD's rheological properties as well as the maintenance of the patient's anterior chamber and dome.

    Scale for the chamber and dome maintenance ranges from flat (worst case) to full chamber (best case) maintained.

    Scale for rheological properties ranges from dispersive (best case) to cohesive (worst case).

    Measured: day 0

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract Surgery, run by Croma-Pharma GmbH at 1 site in Austria.

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 3 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 10 Dec 2024. 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 Austria. 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?

Specular microscopy to measure the preservation of endothelium (time frame: 90 days post surgery compared to 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 10 Dec 2024.
