About this study

Official title: Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Choroidal Osteoma: a Quantitative Evaluation of Choriocapillary Vessel Density

This study evaluates the vessel density of choriocapillary vascular network in eyes affected by choroidal osteoma and in eyes complicated by choroidal neovascularization, using optical coherence tomography angiography.

Read the detailed description

The choroidal osteoma is a rare benign tumor of choroid, it is bilateral in 10%-25% of cases, affecting usually young women. Previous studies evaluated the morphologic characteristics of tumor-related vasculatures, described as a seafun vascular networks, but none focused on study of vessel density of coriocapillary.

The aim of this study is to investigate the potential role of the optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in evaluating the choriocapillary vessel density in order to individuate the changes of this vascular network that may influence the onset of choroidal neovasculariztion.

Therefore, OCTA could be useful in the clinical management of the choroidal osteoma

  • Optical coherence tomography angiographyDiagnostic test

    To evaluate the vessel density in choriocapillary vascular networks, using optical coherence tomography angiography

What is being measured

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

  1. Study of vessel density of the choriocapillary in patients affected by choroidal osteoma .

    To evaluate the role of optical coherence tomography angiography in evaluating the features of the choriocapillary, using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in patients with choroidal osteoma and in patients with choroidal osteoma complicated by choroidal neovascularization. The parameter analyzed by OCTA was the vessel density of choriocapillary (percent)

    Measured: 7 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Choroidal Osteoma, Bilateral, run by Federico II University at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

Study of vessel density of the choriocapillary in patients affected by choroidal osteoma . (time frame: 7 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 NCT05342324, 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 22 Apr 2022.
