About this study

Official title: Aflibercept as Adjunctive Treatment for Filtration Surgery in Neovascular

Purpose: To investigate intravitreal aflibercept (IVA) injection as an adjunctive treatment to trabeculectomy with mitomycin C (TMC) and panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for neovascular glaucoma (NVG).

Setting: Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand Study design: Prospective interventional case series Methods: PRP and IVA (2 mg/0.05 ml) injection were given, and TMC was performed within 2 weeks after IVA. Additional PRP, laser suture lysis, subconjunctival 5-fluorouracil injection, and bleb needling were performed after TMC if indicated. Best-collected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure (IOP), surgical complications, and number of anti-glaucoma medications were collected.

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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intraocular pressure (time frame: Post-operative on day 1st). The study lists 9 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 NCT04970251, which also lists 3 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 21 Jul 2021.
