Trial summary

Reduce the trauma and the time taken for patient rehabilitation. The prevailing trend is to perform a mitomycin- C (MMC)-augmented trabeculectomy and trabeculectomy with ologen implants in a trial to decrease bleb failure as a common post- trabeculectomy complication. Read more about this study

  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • patients older than 18 years of age with primary or secondary open-angle glaucoma.
  • Primary OAG (POAG) diagnosed on the basis of IOP measurements more than 21 mmHg, open angle on gonioscopy (Grade 3 or 4 on Schaffer grading system for angle width), glaucomatous visual field defects consistent with glaucomatous optic disc changes.
  • PNAG was diagnosed by the presence of narrow or occludable angle on gonioscopy (Grade 2, or 1 on Schaffer grading system for angle width in at least 180° of the total circumference of the angle in primary position without indentation), glaucomatous optic disc changes, visual field defects and IOP more than 21 mmHg

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Conjunctival Vascularity Changes Using Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography After Trabeculectomy With Mitomycin and Ologen Implants

  • Reduce the trauma and the time taken for patient rehabilitation.
  • The prevailing trend is to perform a mitomycin- C (MMC)-augmented trabeculectomy and trabeculectomy with ologen implants in a trial to decrease bleb failure as a common post- trabeculectomy complication.
  • Is to develop a measurement protocol by OCT-A imaging and characterization of the bleb vascularity changes in glaucoma patients before and after surgery.
Read the detailed description

The main purpose of this project is to compare bleb vascularity changes using optical coherence tomography (OCT-A) between mitomycin- C (MMC)-augmented trabeculectomy and develop trabeculectomy with ologen implants to determine whether bleb vascularity measurements during preoperative and early postoperative periode could act as surrogate parameters to predict surgical outcomes.

Glaucoma often existent in the elderly population. Measuremets of bleb vascularity beginning to become an essential part of the glaucoma specialist's clinical and operative took. As investigators continue to collect data both clinically and in the laboratory, these various imaging modalities will shepherd surgeons into a more precise and predicable era of glaucoma surgeries.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Trabectulectomy, Mitomycin and Ologen Collagen Implant in people with OCTA, run by Asmaa Ahmed Ali Youssif.

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 3 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 30 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

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 Asmaa Ali, PhD (01002475442, asmaaahmedali@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

conjunctival vascularity changes (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT04493073, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Jul 2020.
