Trial summary

Pegging the hydroxyapatite for increasing prosthetic motility sometimes leads to some complications for the patient. These complications ranging from discharge, granuloma formation, exposure, implant infection to socket discomfort and etc. Read more about this study

About this study

Pegging the hydroxyapatite for increasing prosthetic motility sometimes leads to some complications for the patient. These complications ranging from discharge, granuloma formation, exposure, implant infection to socket discomfort and etc. We are going to compare prosthetic motility, objectively and subjectively (patients satisfaction) before and after pegging the hydroxy- apatite, and evaluate the complications after pegging.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing orbital implant in people with Anophthalmos and Orbital Implants, run by Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences at 1 site in Iran.

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 1 inclusion and 4 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 12 May 2010. 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 Iran. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Changing movement in up gaze: 0.58 mm. The study lists 4 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 12 May 2010.
