About this study

To evaluate the safety and efficacy of ocular iontophoresis with dexamethasone phosphate ophthalmic solution, EGP-437, using the EyeGate® II Drug Delivery System (EGDS) in patients with macular edema (ME)

Read the detailed description

This will be a Phase 1b/2a, exploratory, open-label study, in which up to 20 eligible ME patients will be enrolled at up to 5 clinical sites in the U.S. Twenty eyes of 20 patients will be enrolled which means that only one eye will be treated with study treatment in patients who present at Visit 1 with bilateral ME. In situations where both eyes of a patient are eligible for the study, the eye with the shorter duration of ME will be the study eye.9 The investigator will designate the study eye when both eligible eyes have been diagnosed with ME at the same time. Potential patients who are interested in participating in the study will be provided an informed consent form (ICF) prior to screening. Patient eligibility will be assessed at Visit 1 (Day 0), the baseline visit, by spectral SD-OCT and measurement of IOP, in addition to review of the patient's medical and ophthalmic history and recent concomitant medications history. Study Treatment will be administered on Day 0, Day 4, and Day 9 (Visits 1, 2, and 3). Subjects will be scheduled to return to the clinic for post-treatment assessments during Visits 4 and 5 (Day 14 and Day 21 or Day 28).

What is being measured

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

  1. Anatomic improvement measured as reduction in mean central subfield thickness as evaluated by spectral-domain-optical coherence tomography

    Measured: Day 4, Day 9, Day 14, and Day 21

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Changes in macular volume as evaluated by spectral-domain-optical coherence tomography

    Measured: Day 4, Day 9, Day 14, and Day 21

  2. Qualitative review of spectral-domain-optical coherence tomography scans

    Measured: Day 4, Day 9, Day 14, and Day 21

  3. Dilated fundus exam

    Measured: Day 4, Day 9, Day 14, and Day 21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Dexamethasone Phosphate Ophthalmic in people with Macular Edema, run by Eyegate Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 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 4 inclusion and 0 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2016. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Slow enrollment). 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?

Anatomic improvement measured as reduction in mean central subfield thickness as evaluated by spectral-domain-optical coherence tomography (time frame: Day 4, Day 9, Day 14, and Day 21). 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 3 Aug 2016.
