About this study

Official title: A Real-world Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of 650nm Low-intensity Single-wavelength Red Light in the Prevention and Control of Myopia in Children and Adolescents

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of 650nm low-level red-light irradiation for myopia control and prevention in children under less restrictive conditions than randomized controlled trials. Participants included children(aged 7 to 18 years, spherical equivalent error of 0.5D or below) who are already myopic at recruitment, and those who are of Emmetropia or low hyperopia.

Read the detailed description

This multicenter real world study will be conducted in at least 100 hospitals: Beijing Tongren Hospital will be the initiator of the study, other hospitals such as the Capital Institute of Pediatrics will serve as sub-centers. The whole study will last for three years.The investigators will perform data analysis at 6 months follow-up, one-year follow-up, and two-year follow-up. Participants who used 650 nm low-level red-light would be recruited. This kind of intervention will be integrated into a headworn device. This device could be used for treatment of myopia or amblyopia, and is safe for the eyes and has been verified by the Chinese market supervision and administration department.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 650 nm low-level red-lightDevice

    Typically, children who uses the 650 nm low-level red-light will be recruited into this study. The use of any other myopia intervention is not restricted except for low concentrations of atropine. Because atropine will cause pupils dilated, the amount of light entering the eye can not be controlled, and red-light is a laser, to be safe, we need to take certain consideration of the amount of light-entering. Participants receive the 650 nm low-level red-light intervention not because they are enrolled in a study, they would receive the intervention in the same manner and intensity if they were not enrolled in the study.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
650 nm low-level red-lightChildren who are exposed to the 650 nm low-level red-light will be recruited into the cohort, the exposure factor is red-light irradiation. The study does not give interventions, but only recruit children who received or who is receiving the 650 nm low-level red-light intervention for observation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in axial length

    Use an optical biometer to measure the axial length

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  2. Change in spherical equivalent error

    Children's pupil were dilated using Mydrin-P eye drops, and then the refractive error was measured using an autorefractor. the two measurements (axial length and spherical equivalent error) will be aggregated to arrive at one reported value through the following way: axial enlongation will be defined as progress in myopia, decrease in spherical equivalent error will be defined as progress in myopia too.

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Change in Choroid thickness to measure

    Use an enhanced-depth imaging technique (based on Optical coherence tomography )

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  2. Change in steep keratometry

    Use an optical biometer to measure

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  3. Change in flat keratometry

    Use an optical biometer to measure

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  4. Change in length thickness

    Use an optical biometer to measure

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  5. Change in anterior chamber depth

    Use an optical biometer to measure

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

  6. Change in central corneal thickness

    Use an optical biometer to measure

    Measured: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Myopia, run by Beijing Tongren Hospital 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 4 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 8 Oct 2024. 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?

Contact Kai Cao (01058265900, caozhi@ccmu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in axial length (time frame: Baseline, six-month follow-up, one-year follow-up, two-year follow-up). 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?
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 8 Oct 2024.
