What is being measured

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

  1. Relationship between goblet cell density and the incidence of conjunctivitis over time

    Establish the relationship between goblet cell densitiy and the incidence of conjunctivitis during dupilumab treatment in AD patients. Goblet cell density will determined by counting the goblet cells. The amount of goblet cells will be compared at different time points. Goblet cells will be collected using Impression Cytology of the conjunctiva and will be stained directly.

    Measured: change of goblet cell density between baseline, 4 weeks and 28 weeks after start dupilumab, at the moment of the development of eye symptoms, 4 weeks after ocular treatment

  2. Relationship between goblet cell density and the risk of conjunctivitis

    Establish the relationship between goblet cell densitiy and the risk of conjunctivitis during dupilumab treatment in AD patients. Goblet cell density will determined by counting the goblet cells. The amount of goblet cells will be compared at different time points. Goblet cells will be collected using Impression Cytology of the conjunctiva and will be stained directly.

    Measured: change of goblet cell density between baseline, 4 weeks and 28 weeks after start dupilumab, at the moment of the development of eye symptoms, 4 weeks after ocular treatment

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Conjunctival changes during dupilumab treatment using Impression Cytology

    Better understanding of conjunctival changes using Impression Cytology of the conjunctiva, collected at different time points during treatment with dupilumab in AD patients

    Measured: baseline, 4 weeks and 28 weeks after start dupilumab, at the moment of the development of eye symptoms, 4 weeks after ocular treatment

  2. Optimal treatment of conjunctivitis

    Establish the most optimal treatment of conjunctivitis during dupilumab treatment. Ophthalmological examination will be compared at all time points to determine if the prescribed therapy is effective and optimal.

    Measured: at the moment of the development of eye symptoms, 4 weeks after ocular treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Atopic Dermatitis, run by UMC Utrecht at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2023. 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 Netherlands. 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?

Contact Roselie Achten, MD (0031 88 75 57439, r.e.achten@umcutrecht.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Relationship between goblet cell density and the incidence of conjunctivitis over time (time frame: change of goblet cell density between baseline, 4 weeks and 28 weeks after start dupilumab, at the moment of the development of eye symptoms, 4 weeks after ocular treatment). 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.
