About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Effectiveness of KDR2-2 Suspension Eyedrop on Neovascular Regression in the Treatment of Neovascular Glaucoma: an Exploratory Clinical Trial

The clinical trial is aimed to evaluate the anti-neovascular effect of KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop in the treatment of neovascular glaucoma. Fourty subjects would receive either 0.96 or 3.84 mg/per day/eye, in a QID fashion, ×7 days (those without complications can continue to 28 days). The anti-neovascular effect of KDR2-2 on iris neovascularization would be evaluated at day 1, day 7, day 14, day 28 after KDR2-2 usage.

Read the detailed description

Neovascular glaucoma (NVG) has a high blinding rate and poor prognosis. Anti-glaucoma surgery is the main stake of saving visual function and relieving pain, but the proliferation of iris neovascularization (NVI) makes it difficult to treat NVG. Normally, the patients need an intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents prior to glaucoma surgery to control the NVI proliferation.

KDR2-2, a novel small-molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitor targeting VEGF receptor 2 (VEGFR2), has demonstrated anti-neovascular effect without obvious side-effects or complications in animal studies and a Phase I clinical trial (NCT04620109). In this study, 40 patients with NVG will be included to evaluate the effectiveness of KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop on NVI in NVG eyes. The included subjects would receive either 0.96 or 3.84 mg/day/eye, in a QID fashion, ×7 days (those without complications can continue to 28 days).

This study aims to and propose a novel, non-invasive and more compliant method for the treatment of NVG.

What participants receive

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

  • 4mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eyedropDrug

    Also called Low-dose KDR2-2

    KDR2-2 is a synthetic anti-angiogenic chemical compound with highly effective inhibition on vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2), and an additional, moderate inhibitory effect on platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ).

    KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop is developed for the treatment of iris neovascularization.

  • 16mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eyedropDrug

    Also called High-dose KDR2-2

    KDR2-2 is a synthetic anti-angiogenic chemical compound with highly effective inhibition on vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR2), and an additional, moderate inhibitory effect on platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFRβ).

    KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop is developed for the treatment of iris neovascularization.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing 4mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop and 16mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eyedrop in people with Neovascular Glaucoma and Neovascularization, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2024. 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 China. 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 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.

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?

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?

Changes of iris neovascularization (time frame: Day 0 and 7). 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 11 Dec 2024.
