About this study

Clinical observation to confirm the clinical safety and efficacy of ODM 5 in the treatment of corneal edema caused by Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy.

Read the detailed description

Patients with a Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy-induced corneal edema and an ODM 5 therapy recommendation prior to their inclusion will be observed in normal practice setting in this post-market clinical follow-up study. In this indication, the use of ODM 5 should extract the fluid excess in the cornea away by an osmotic effect, enabling the cornea to temporarily regain a normal state of hydration. As a consequence, the patient's visual acuity, contrast perception, corneal thickness and ocular complaints/symptoms should improve. The hyaluronan in ODM 5 helps to protect and heal the cornea in case of irritation and thus, enables the cornea to regain a normal state of hydration and participates in improving the quality of vision.

What participants receive

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

  • ODM 5Device

    ODM 5 is a CE-certified, preservative-free, hyperosmolar ophthalmological solution containing 5% sodium chloride and 0.15% sodium hyaluronate recommended for the reduction of corneal edema. The patient will use ODM 5 on a daily basis in accordance with the instructions for use and as recommended by the investigator over a period of 8 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual acuity (both eyes)

    Measurement of uncorrected and best corrected visual acuity (both eyes)

    Measured: Day 56

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Corneal thickness

    Measurement of central corneal thickness (both eyes)

    Measured: Day 0, day 28 and day 56

  2. Visual acuity (both eyes)

    Measurement of uncorrected and best corrected visual acuity (both eyes)

    Measured: Day 0 and day 28

  3. Contrast perception (Measurement of contrast values (both eyes))

    Measurement of contrast values (both eyes)

    Measured: Day 0, day 28 and day 56

  4. Subjective ocular complaints and symptoms (11-point Likert scale)

    The following ocular complaints or symptoms will be evaluated on an 11-point Likert scale ranging from '0' (no complaints) to '10' (maximum complaints):

    • glare sensitivity
    • burning
    • foreign body sensation
    • halos
    • pruritus
    • blurred vision
    • redness
    • pain
    • tingling
    • stitching
    • dryness
    • watering eyes

    Measured: Day 0, day 28 and day 56

  5. Safety parameter (Adverse events)

    Adverse events judged to be unexpected and (possibly) related to ODM 5 will be documented

    Measured: Day 0, day 28 and day 56

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fuchs' Endothelial Dystrophy and Corneal Edema, run by TRB Chemedica AG at 4 sites in Germany.

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 3 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 7 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in Germany. 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?

Visual acuity (both eyes) (time frame: Day 56). 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 7 Jun 2016.
