About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Controlled, PRospective Study of the Effectiveness and Safety of the Ocular Therapeutix Dextenza (Dexamethasone Ophthalmic Insert) 0.4 mg for the treatMEnt of Post-operative Inflammation in Patients Who Plan to Undergo Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

To investigate the outcomes of patients undergoing bilateral RLE surgery with treatment of dexamethasone intracanilicular insert compared to topical standard care steroid. Desiged to look at patient preference comparing the insert to drops and will also look at patient outcomes including inflammatin and risk of cystoid macular edema post-operatively.

Read the detailed description

A Randomized, Controlled, Prospective Study design in which one eye (Group A) receives Dextenza and the second eye (Group B) receives prednisolone acetate 1% QID 1 week, TID 1 week, BID 1 week, and QD 1week, following bilateral RLE surgery. All eyes will receive topical moxifloxacin QID for one week and topical Ilevro QD for 4 weeks. Moxifloxacin and Ilevero are used in post-op regardless of the research. Post-operative evaluations to be performed on Day 1, Day 7, and 1 Month.

What participants receive

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

  • DextenzaDrug

    Dextenza 0.4mg

  • Topical PrednisoloneDrug

    Standard of care topical drop treatment

Study groups in NCT04549935
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group A DextenzaActive comparatorDrug: Dextenza 0.4mg Opthalmic Insert The insert, containing 0.4 mg of active pharmaceutical product, is placed within the canaliculus to provide a sustained and tapered delivery of drug to the ocular surface over 30 days after a one-time insertion, The attributes of the insert reduce risks for improper corticosteriod tapering and unwanted peaks and troughs in drug concentration.
Receives: Drug: Dextenza
Group B Topical PrednisoloneActive comparatorDrug: Topical Prednisolone Standard of care topical drop treatment
Receives: Drug: Topical Prednisolone

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient Preference

    As measured by adapted COMTOL (Comparison of Ophthalmic Medications for Tolerability) survey (This is measured on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being a worse outcome)

    Measured: Through Month 1

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percentage of eyes that have CME (Cystoid macular edema) post-operatively

    Measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography )

    Measured: Through Month 1

  2. Mean pain score per eye (Group A vs Group B)

    Measured by Visual Analog Scale (0-10, 10 being the worst outcome)

    Measured: Through Month 1

  3. Incidence of post-operative corneal haze

    measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)

    Measured: Through Month 1

  4. Grade of post-operative corneal haze

    measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)

    Measured: Through Month 1

  5. Anterior chamber cell count

    measured by SUN Working Group Grading Scheme

    Measured: Through Month 1

  6. Uncorrected Visual Acuity

    measured by ETDRS chart a 4m

    Measured: Through Month 1

  7. Best Corrected Visual Acuity

    measured by ETDRS chart a 4m

    Measured: Through Month 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dextenza and Topical Prednisolone in people with Patient Preference and Patient Outcomes, run by Vance Thompson Vision - MT 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 3 inclusion and 11 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 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 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 phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient Preference (time frame: Through Month 1). 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 16 Sep 2020.
