Trial summary

Uveitis is an inflammatory disease of the uvea, constituting the 4th leading cause of legal blindness worldwide and the 3rd leading cause of avoidable blindness . It is not a rare condition, with an incidence of 17 to 52 per 100,000 population and a prevalence of 38 to 204 per 100,000 population. Read more about this study

About this study

Uveitis is an inflammatory disease of the uvea, constituting the 4th leading cause of legal blindness worldwide and the 3rd leading cause of avoidable blindness . It is not a rare condition, with an incidence of 17 to 52 per 100,000 population and a prevalence of 38 to 204 per 100,000 population. In the case of cortico-dependence, it is generally accepted to propose sparing with a conventional immunosuppressant, whose efficacy is estimated at around 70%, compared with biotherapies, which are considered more effective (over 90%) but only available as 2nd-line treatment. However, there are few studies on the failure factors of this first-line treatment, such as macular thickness , gender, or vitamin D deficiency. Risk factors for flare-ups are nevertheless known, notably ethnicity, and smoking. The aim of this study is to identify risk factors for treatment failure after three months of first-line immunosuppressive therapy in patients with chronic non-infectious uveitis at Amiens-Picardie University Hospital.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Uveitis, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

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 5 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 19 Mar 2025. 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 France. 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?

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?

Number of therapeutic failure at 4 months (time frame: 4 months). 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 19 Mar 2025.
