What is being measured

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

  1. Day 15 Evaluation of Anterior Chamber

    The primary efficacy variable of this study is the percentage of patients with a score of zero postoperative inflammation (anterior chamber inflammation, ie, presence of cells in the anterior chamber (0-4) in the study on Day 15. The absence of bacterial infection on Day 15 ± 1 will be assumed to demonstrate that the antibacterial agents in the association of moxifloxacin / acetate Prednisolona1% and moxifloxacin + acetate Prednisolona1% Eye drops are equal in antimicrobial effectiveness, and that they acted in a prophylactic manner to prevent of bacterial infection.

    Measured: 15 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. day 15 physician´s follow-up impression of inflammatory reaction score

    the clinical evaluation will be based on the following variables: IOP, assessment of visual acuity, slit lamp examination (lids, conjunctiva, cornea), and examination of the fundus (retina / macula / choroid, vitreous and optic nerve).

    Measured: 15 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing moxifloxacin 0,5% + prednisolone 1% and moxifloxacin/prednisolone combination in people with Eye Infection/Inflammation Other, run by Adapt Produtos Oftalmológicos Ltda. at 1 site in Brazil.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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 22 May 2012. 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 Brazil. 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 phase mean?

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?

Contact Rubens Belfort, investigator (5511 5572-6443, prof.belfort@clinicabelfort.com.br), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Day 15 Evaluation of Anterior Chamber (time frame: 15 days). 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 22 May 2012.
