About this study

Official title: Phase 2 Randomized, Double-blind Clinical Trial to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of the Ophthalmic Solution PRO-155 Versus Nevanac 0.1% Ophthalmic Solution in Post Phacoemulsification Patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of the ophthalmic solution PRO-155 in patients post phacoemulsification.

Read the detailed description

Postsurgical inflammation is an inevitable condition after cataract surgery. The use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs is a safe option for treating ocular inflammation.

This is a phase II randomized double-blind clinical trial. The aim is to compare and to evaluate efficacy and safety of two ophthalmic solutions in patients post phacoemulsification. Patients will be randomized to receive either PRO-155 or Nevanac for 60 days.

Being tested
PRO-155, Nevanac

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Cellularity in Anterior Chamber

    Change from Percentage of Cellularity in anterior chamber after 30 days of treatment.

    Measured: day 30

  2. Flare in Anterior Chamber

    Percentage of Participants with flare in anterior chamber after 30 days of treatment

    Measured: day 30

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Patients Without Ocular Pain

    percentage of patients without pain, would be measured using the Visual Analog Pain Scale

    Measured: day 30

  2. Mean Aqueous Concentration of Intervention Drug

    a nurse was instructed to instill five drops of the research product into each patient's eye in the hour before surgery. The concentration of the drug was determined for aqueous humor sample (0.15 mL) with a 30-gauge needle on a TB syringe after completion of the paracentesis. The paracentesis was performed after first incision during the phacoemulsification.

    Measured: before surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PRO-155 and Nevanac in people with Cataract and Phacoemulsification Cataract Surgery, run by Laboratorios Sophia S.A de C.V. at 1 site in Mexico.

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 19 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 30 Oct 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 Mexico. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 30 Oct 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage of Cellularity in Anterior Chamber (time frame: day 30). 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 30 Oct 2018.
