What is being measured

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

  1. Comparison between intravitreal injection of ranibizumab and combination of ranibizumab and triamcinolone acetate for the treatment of macular edema secondary to CRVO

    To compare the clinical effectiveness of 0.5 mg ranibizumab and combination of ranibizumab and triamcinolone 0.3/0.5mg for the treatment of macular oedema secondary to CRVO.Study assessments will be performed at screening, baseline and at monthly visits:

    Best-Corrected Visual Acuity:

    will be assessed at every study visit by using alandolt ringes VA testing chart at an initial testing distance of 6 m.

    Measured: 2 year

  2. Comparison between intravitreal injection of ranibizumab and combination of ranibizumab and triamcinolone acetate for the treatment of macular edema secondary to CRVO

    To compare the clinical effectiveness of 0.5 mg ranibizumab and combination of ranibizumab and triamcinolone 0.3/0.5mg for the treatment of macular oedema secondary to CRVO.Study assessments will be performed at screening, baseline and at monthly visits:

    Optical Coherence Tomography:

    will be performed at every visit and the same machine will be used for assessment of the same patient throughout the study. investigator will evaluate the images according to central foveal thickness, and the retinal thickness at the foveal center point and to capture the presence or absence of qualitative parameters (i.e., intraretinal cystoid fluid and subretinal fluid).

    Measured: 2 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Ranibizumab and triamcinolone acetate in people with Ophthalmopathy, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Jul 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 Egypt. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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 Wael Ismael (01006322380, wael.ali.ismael@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparison between intravitreal injection of ranibizumab and combination of ranibizumab and triamcinolone acetate for the treatment of macular edema secondary to CRVO (time frame: 2 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?
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 7 Jul 2020.
