About this study

Glaucoma is the second most common blindness disease in the world, second only to cataracts. The current treatment of glaucoma is mainly to reduce intraocular pressure.At present, two commonly used surgical methods are trabeculectomy and implantation of drainage valve. These methods are superior to drug treatment in reducing intraocular pressure, but the effect duration of these two methods is not long, and there may be serious complications and failure.

Compared with traditional glaucoma surgery, MIGS may have better safety.The XEN45 gel implant is a collagen tube with a length of 6 mm and a diameter of 45 µm, which creates a new channel for drainage of aqueous humor by connecting the anterior chamber and the subconjunctival space. The implant is composed of porcine gelatin cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, and has good biocompatibility and tolerance. Therefore, after the advent of XEN45 products, more and more studies have shown that this treatment has excellent safety and effectiveness in reducing intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma.

Considering that the XEN45 gel stent has been in the market for a relatively short time, we conducted this prospective study to investigate the effect of XEN45 surgery in the treatment of primary open-angle glaucoma, in order to support ophthalmologists in formulating the best surgical plan for patients. The promotion of this surgical method.

    Also called XEN

    The XEN45 gel implant is a collagen tube with a length of 6 mm and a diameter of 45 µm, which creates a new channel for drainage of aqueous humor by connecting the anterior chamber and the subconjunctival space. The implant is composed of porcine gelatin cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, and has good biocompatibility and tolerance.This treatment method has excellent safety and effectiveness in reducing the intraocular pressure of patients with open-angle glaucoma. At the same time, the operation is simple and safe.

What is being measured

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

  1. IOP (intraocular pressure) changes

    Compare the patient's IOP changes before and after surgery. Complete success of the operation was defined as IOP≤21mmhg without any glaucoma drugs. Qualified success is defined as the same intraocular pressure level but with medication. Failure is defined as IOP> 21 mmHg and maximum tolerance of the drug

    Measured: 3 months after surgery

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. BCVA(Best corrected vision ability)changes

    Evaluate the patient's BCVA changes before and after surgery

    Measured: Baseline (before surgery) and 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery

  2. anti-glaucoma drugs changes

    Compare the amount of patient's anti-glaucoma drugs before and after surgery

    Measured: Baseline (before surgery) and 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months after surgery

  3. IOP (intraocular pressure) changes

    Compare the patient's IOP changes before and after surgery. Complete success of the operation was defined as IOP≤21mmhg without any glaucoma drugs. Qualified success is defined as the same intraocular pressure level but with medication. Failure is defined as IOP> 21 mmHg and maximum tolerance of the drug

    Measured: Baseline (before surgery) and 1 day, 1 week, 1 month,6 month and 12 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing XEN45 gel stent implantation in people with Glaucoma and Glaucoma, Open-Angle, run by Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center, Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 6 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 23 Nov 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 China. 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?

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?

IOP (intraocular pressure) changes (time frame: 3 months after surgery). 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 23 Nov 2021.
