Trial summary

Myopia is a global healthy concern, especially the high myopia and pathological myopia among Asian populations. However, its mechanism still remains largely unclear. Recent findings suggested choroidal changes might be related to the development of myopia. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: OCTA to Quantify the Parapapillary Choroidal Microvascular Changes in High Myopia

Myopia is a global healthy concern, especially the high myopia and pathological myopia among Asian populations. However, its mechanism still remains largely unclear. Recent findings suggested choroidal changes might be related to the development of myopia. This study is to useOCT angiography (OCT-A) to investigate parapapillary choroidal microvasculature change in myopic eyes, and try to find the cause-and-effect relationship between choroidal change and the development of myopia.

Being tested
Optic coherence tomography angiography (OCTA)
Keywords
OCTA, Myopia, Choroid

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Optic coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in people with Myopia, Progressive and Choroid Disease, run by The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical 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 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Feb 2020. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zizong Hu, PhD, MD (+8615195960100, huzizhong@njum.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Parapapillary choroidal microvasculature void (MvV) area (time frame: changes of MvV area from at 10 years). The study lists 5 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 5 Feb 2020.
