About this study

to predict of glaucoma progression. By imaging of the retinal nerve fiber layer RNFL, optic nerve head (ONH) and macular measurements using spectral-domain OCT (SD-OCT) instruments

,and detection of optic disc perfusion changes using OCTA.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will go a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination including review of medical history, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), slit-lamp biomicroscopy, intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement, gonioscopy, dilated fundoscopic examination, stereoscopic optic disc photography, and automated perimetry using Swedish Interactive Threshold Algorithm (SITA Standard 24-2). Only subjects with open angles on gonioscopy were included.

One eye of each subject will be scanned by a high-speed 1050-nm-wavelength swept-source OCT instrument.

OCT is providing measurements of the RNFL thickness, ONH, as well as the inner macula for the assessment of glaucoma progression.

The split-spectrum amplitude-decorrelation angiography (SSADA) algorithm will be used to compute 3-dimensional optic disc angiography. A disc flow index was computed from 4 registered scans.

Evaluation of progressive changes of the optic disc and RNFL will be based on event-analysis and/or trend-analysis. In event analysis, progression is defined when the difference between the baseline and follow-up measurements of the parameter of interest is greater than its test-retest variability (or the reproducibility coefficient). In trend analysis, regression analysis is performed between the parameter of interest and time.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Optical Coherence Tomography Glaucoma, run by Assiut University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 27 Nov 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.

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

What does the primary outcome measure?

retinal nerve fiber layer RNFL (time frame: one 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 NCT04646122, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 27 Nov 2020.
