About this study

Official title: Longitudinal Gelatin Stent vs. Trabeculectomy (LongGVT Study): Ab Interno Gelatin Stent With Mitomycin C Versus Trabeculectomy With Mitomycin C: a Retrospective Cohort Analysis

To compare 3-year post-operative efficacy and safety of standalone ab interno gelatin microstent (Xen45®) versus trabeculectomy.

Read the detailed description

This is a single-center retrospective cohort study. Patients included were consecutive patients from June 2012 - July 2017 who received standalone Xen45® or standalone trabeculectomy. The primary outcome was time to failure, defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) outside of 6mmHg - 17mmHg on no medications on two consecutive visits despite in-clinic maneuvers (including needling). Secondary outcomes included IOP cutoffs of 14mmHg and 21mmHg with and without medications, as well as interventions, complications, and reoperations.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Filtering Surgery and Trabeculectomy, run by Prism Eye Institute at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. 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?

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?

time to failure (time frame: up to 3 years). 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 NCT05126069, 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 18 Nov 2021.
