About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Conjunctival Autografting Augmented With Mitomycin-C Application Versus Ologen Implantation in Surgical Treatment of Recurrent Pterygium

Ologen implantation with conjunctival autografting shows promising results in surgical management of recurrent pterygium comparable to MMC application with conjunctival autografting with mild non vision threatening postoperative complications.

Read the detailed description

Patients were randomly enrolled into two groups. Group A included 32 eyes of 32 patients who underwent conjunctival autografting augmented with topical application of Mitomycin C (0.2 mg/mL). Group B included 31 eyes of 31 who underwent conjunctival autografting augmented with Ologen implantation.

All patients had a recurrent nasal pterygium after one surgical session for removal of the primary one. Any patient with primary nasal pterygium, or patients with recurrent pterygium who had more than one session for surgical removal were excluded. As well, patients with cicatrizing conjunctival disease or previous conjunctival surgery were excluded from the study.

A comprehensive ophthalmic examination, including best-corrected visual acuity testing, slit-lamp examination, Goldmann applanation tonometry, fundus examination, and examination of ocular motility, was carried out for all patients. According to their corneal extent, pterygia were classified into 3 grades:

Grade 1: Fibrovascular proliferations extend up to one quarter of the corneal diameter.

Grade 2: Fibrovascular proliferations extend up to the center of the cornea. Grade 3: Fibrovascular proliferations extend beyond the visual axis.

Consents were taken from all patients and research was approved by the institutional review board. All measures were in accordance with the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki.

As for group A, 0.2 mg/mL MMC was prepared by reconstituting 2 mg vial of Mitomycin with 10 mL sterile water for injection. When using Mitomycin 10 mg vial, the same concentration was achieved by reconstituting the 10 mg vial 10 mL sterile water for injection. Then 1 ml of the prepared solution was diluted with 4 ml of saline to achieve 0.2 mg/mL (0.02% solution). This solution is stable for 2 weeks under refrigeration, and 24 hours at room temperature (59° to 86°F).

As for group B, 1×2 or 2×2 square millimeter porous collagen matrix was used for each patient

What is being measured

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

  1. 32 eyes with Topical application of Mitomycin C in concentration of (0.2 mg/mL).

    As for group A, 0.2 mg/mL MMC was prepared by reconstituting 2 mg vial of Mitomycin with 10 mL sterile water for injection. When using Mitomycin 10 mg vial, the same concentration was achieved by reconstituting the 10 mg vial 10 mL sterile water for injection. Then 1 ml of the prepared solution was diluted with 4 ml of saline to achieve 0.2 mg/mL (0.02% solution).

    Measured: "through study completion, an average of 1 year".

  2. 31 eyes with ologen implantation(6 mm in diameter and 2 mm thick.) was used for each patient.

    In group B; Ologen was applied under the graft tissue once it is secured in place (half the vial is used for every patient)

    Measured: "through study completion, an average of 1 year".

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing conjunctival autografting augmented with topical application of Mitomycin C and conjunctival autografting augmented with Ologen implantation in people with Recurrent Pterygium of Eye, run by Menoufia University.

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 2 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 5 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

What does the primary outcome measure?

32 eyes with Topical application of Mitomycin C in concentration of (0.2 mg/mL). (time frame: "through study completion, an average of 1 year".). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04419038, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
