Trial summary

Childhood ALL patients are treated with high dose steroids. The study will follow the intraocular pressure of children treated in according to an AIEOP-BFM protocol, during the induction phase that will be compared to the pressure before treatment. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Intraocular Pressure in Children With ALL Treated With High Dose Steroids

Childhood ALL patients are treated with high dose steroids. The study will follow the intraocular pressure of children treated in according to an AIEOP-BFM protocol, during the induction phase that will be compared to the pressure before treatment. Potential risk factors for developing elevated intraocular pressure will be estimated.

Read the detailed description

Children with ALL in Israel are treating according to the BFM ALL Protocol which contains high dose steroid therapy. One of the known side effects of high dose steroids is Intraocular hypertension, glaucoma, and even irreversible optic nerve injury. Early diagnosis of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and early therapeutic interventions might help to prevent future ocular damage.

The purpose of this study is to determine the risk of developing evaluate Intraocular pressure during high dose steroid therapy. If elevated IOP will be common enough, we will try to corelate the risk of elevated IOP with potential risk factors, such as initial IOP, WBC at diagnosis, etc.

Intraocular pressure will be measured by ophthalmologists using iCare devise: TONOPEN during general anesthesia at the day of diagnosis of ALL before steroid therapy initiation, and then after 15 and 33 days. Children with elevated IOP will continue ophthalmologists' follow up and treatment as necessary.

All parents or patients' guardians will sign informed consent for participating in the study.

The study group contains all newly diagnosed children with ALL in Schneider Children Medical Center.

What is being measured

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

  1. intra-ocular pressure (IOP)

    Elevated IOP will be defined as pressure >21 mmHg; The risk of developing elevated IOP will be correlated with potential risk factors (T ALL vs. B ALL; WBC at diagnosis; initial IOP at diagnosis etc.)

    Measured: 15 days of steroid treatment

  2. intra-ocular pressure (IOP)

    Elevated IOP will be defined as pressure >21 mmHg; The risk of developing elevated IOP will be correlated with potential risk factors (T ALL vs. B ALL; WBC at diagnosis; initial IOP at diagnosis etc.)

    Measured: 1 month of steroid treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Intraocular pressure measurment in people with ALL, Childhood and Steroid-Induced Glaucoma, run by Rabin Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 1 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 22 Oct 2021. 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 Israel. 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 Shlomit Barzilai Birenboim, MD (03-9253461, Bshlomit@clalit.org.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

intra-ocular pressure (IOP) (time frame: 15 days of steroid 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.

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 22 Oct 2021.
