Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) has been one of the most important ophthalmic surgeries for treating a number of blinding diseases by removing and replacing the diseased vitreous body. Current clinic vitreous substitute cannot mimic the natural vitreous which is unable to regenerate after surgery. We have devised a novel foldable capsular vitreous body (FCVB) consisting of a vitreous-like capsule with a tube-valve system, and demonstrated it could finely mimic the morphology and restore main physiological function of the natural vitreous body in our previous study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complete retinal reattach rate at the three years after implantation of the silicone-filled FCVB
Time Frame: three years after implantation of the FCVB
FCVBs filled with balanced salt solution (BSS) were removed from all 11 cases, however, the risk of retinal redetachment and blindness rises after earlier FCVB removal. Approved by the Sun Yat-sen University Medical Ethics Committee, the removal of the FCVB will be decided by doctors depending on the conditions of eye. The eyes implanted with the silicone oil-filled FCVB are still under observation.
three years after implantation of the FCVB

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
visual acuity, intraocular pressure, axial length, ocular inflammatory response, the number of corneal endothelial, anterior chamber angle and ciliary body change, morphological changes of the ocular and FCVB.
Time Frame: Before surgery, 3days,1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 1 year, 1.5 years, 2 years, 2.5 years and 3 years after surgery, and 3 months after the removal of the FCVB
FCVBs filled with BSS were removed from all 11 cases, however, the risk of retinal redetachment and blindness rises after earlier FCVB removal. Approved by the Sun Yat-sen University Medical Ethics Committee, the removal of the FCVB will be decided by doctors depending on the conditions of eye. The eyes implanted with the FCVB and silicone oil are still under observation.
