About this study

Official title: Prospective Open Label Clinical and Genetic Testing of Patients With Retinitis Pigment

This study is aimed to characterize Russian population of Retinitis Pigmentosa

Read the detailed description

This study is aimed to characterize Russian population of Retinitis Pigmentosa.

Tasks:

Stage 1. Formation of the primary cohort of patients. Patients pre-recruiting will be performed based on Deaf-Blind Support Foundation "Con-nection" patient database analysis and from references. Patients with clinically confirmed Retinitis pigmentosa will be evaluated according to available data of the clinical examination.

Stage 2. Genetic study of patients. All enrolled patients will undergo single 4 ml peripheral venous blood sampling. DNA will be extracted from leucocytes. DNA samples will be analyzed and placed for long-term storage in liquid nitrogen. Stage 3. Clinical examination of patients.

Each patient will undergo the following diagnostic procedures according to the unified protocol:

  • Visometry (with correction and without correction)
  • Ophthalmoscopy
  • Perimetry
  • Optical coherence tomography
  • Electroretinography
  • Visually evoked potentials
  • Refractometry
  • Pneumotonometry
  • Biomicroscopy
  • Any additional examinations and consultations if necessary Medical record will be developed and maintained for each patient consisting results of extended clinical examination.

Statistical and bioinformatic analysis of detected genetic mutations in the study cohort will be performed.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Retinitis Pigmentosa and Usher Syndromes, run by Sensor Technology for Deafblind at 2 sites in Russia.

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 9 inclusion and 5 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 20 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Russia. 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?

Changes in visual acuity (time frame: Up to 4 weeks). The study lists 10 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 20 May 2022.
