About this study

Official title: Effect of Intracameral Injection of Preservative Free, Fixed Concentration of Combined Mydriatic Plus Anaesthetic Formulation on Corneal Endothelial Cell Count in Phacoemulsification

Study evaluates safety of intracameral injection of Fydrane (tropicamide 0.02%, phenylephrine 0.31% and lidocaine 1%) on corneal endothelium, and efficiency in maintaining pupillary dilatation during phacoemulsification surgery.

Read the detailed description

in this prospective randomized controlled study, 30 eyes of 30 patients undergoing phacoemulsification with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, were assigned into 2 groups. 15 eyes (Fydrane group) received 0.2ml of Fydrane just after the first incision. While 15 eyes (Reference group) received a topical regimen of one drop of each of cyclopentolate hydrochloride 1% and tropicamide 1 %, every 15 min for 1 hour preoperatively. The main outcome measures were safety on corneal endothelium, by comparing the preoperative and 3 weeks postoperative corneal endothelium cell count in the two groups. Efficacy was also evaluated by measuring pupil size using surgical caliper at certain timings during surgery: before capsulorhexis and before intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, in both groups.

What participants receive

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

  • Fydrane®: (Manufacturer DELPHARM TOURS, FRANCE).Drug

    Also called Mydrane

    Fydrane®. The active substances in Fydrane are: tropicamide 0.04 mg (anticholinergic), phenylephrine hydrochloride 0.62 mg (alpha sympathomimetic) and Lidocaine hydrochloride 2 mg (amide type local anaesthetics) for each 0.2 ml dose, equivalent to 0.2 mg of tropicamide, 3.1 mg of phenylephrine hydrochloride and 10 mg of lidocaine hydrochloride for 1 ml.

Study groups in NCT04396301
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Fydrane groupActive comparatorFydrane is injected intracamerally at the beginning of cataract surgery after the first incision, at a dose of 0.2 ml of solution, in only one injection. Fydrane®: (Manufacturer DELPHARM TOURS, FRANCE). No preoperative topical eye drops are used.
Receives: Drug: Fydrane®: (Manufacturer DELPHARM TOURS, FRANCE).
Reference group:No interventionnot injected with intracameral Fydrane. Pupillary dilatation in this group is achieved using preoperative topical eye drops: cyclopentolate hydrochloride 1% and tropicamide 1 % one drop every 15 min for 1 hour preoperatively.

What is being measured

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

  1. safety of intracameral Fydrane on endothelial cell count

    evaluates safety of Fydrane on corneal endothelium, assessed by calculating percentage of endothelial cell loss at 3 weeks postoperative

    Measured: 3 weeks postoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. effect of Fydrane on pupil diameter during phacoemulsification

    Fydrane Efficacy in achieving and maintaining mydiasis, is evaluated by measuring pupil diameter using surgical caliper at certain timings during surgery (before capsulorhexis and before IOL implantation)

    Measured: pupil diameter is measured using surgical caliper at certain timings during surgery (before capsulorhexis and before IOL implantation)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Fydrane®: (Manufacturer DELPHARM TOURS, FRANCE). in people with Corneal Endothelial Cell Loss and Mydriasis, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 20 May 2020. 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 Egypt. 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?

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?

safety of intracameral Fydrane on endothelial cell count (time frame: 3 weeks postoperative). 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 20 May 2020.
