Trial summary

The primary goal of the trial is to show that optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology can be used to effectively screen for diseases of the eye including glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. Glaucoma is a disease that causes permanent vision loss and is usually accompanied by increased eye pressure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of Optical Coherence Tomography Usage in the Screening of Eye Diseases

The primary goal of the trial is to show that optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology can be used to effectively screen for diseases of the eye including glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. Glaucoma is a disease that causes permanent vision loss and is usually accompanied by increased eye pressure. Macular diseases affect sharp, central vision. Keratoconus is a disease that affects the cornea (clear surface covering the colored part of the eye).

Read the detailed description

The identification of many eye diseases would significantly benefit from earlier detection than is available with typical eye exams. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an imaging technology that can perform non-contact cross-sectional imaging of tissue structure in real time. It is similar to ultrasound B-mode imaging, except that OCT measures the intensity of reflected light rather than sound waves.

Being tested
OCT imaging, the FDA Cleared iVue
Keywords
Optical coherence tomography, Glaucoma, Macula, Keratoconus, Screening

What participants receive

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

  • OCT imaging, the FDA Cleared iVueDevice

    The OCT system scans a beam of light across the eye to take a picture. OCT imaging does not touch the eye. This is a test that is performed using an FDA approved system, and is regularly used to take pictures of the back of the eye.

What is being measured

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

  1. OCT screening efficacy for detection of early stage eye diseases in comparison to the current standard of care methods

    The primary goal of the trial is to show that OCT technology, specifically the FDA cleared iVue, can be used to effectively screen for glaucoma, macular diseases and keratoconus. The rate of detection of these diseases detected using OCT will be compared to the rate of detection by the physician's exam.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Glaucoma and Macular Disease, run by Oregon Health and Science University at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 12 Apr 2018. 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 United States. 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?

OCT screening efficacy for detection of early stage eye diseases in comparison to the current standard of care methods (time frame: 1 year). 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 Apr 2018.
