Innovative Imaging of the Conjunctiva, Cornea, and Ocular Adnexa (INNOV-EYE)

January 4, 2024 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne

Innovative Imaging of the Conjunctiva, Cornea, and Ocular Adnexa : Study of a Handheld in Vivo Confocal Microscope and of a Fluorescent in Vivo Confocal Microscope

In vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM) used in tertiary care ophthalmology centers is performed with two reflectance microscopes attached on a mounting with limited movement along the XYZ axes. Consequently, ocular diseases in the central area have been described (mostly cornea and adjacent conjunctiva). Two dermatology IVCM (an handheld small IVCM and a multifluorescent one) present significant innovations that the investigators want to assess in ophthalmology for the diagnosis of conjunctiva, cornea, eyelid and lachrymal tract diseases. The handheld IVCM have unlimited degrees of freedom and a small diameter objective. It could dramatically increase the area accessible to IVCM (whole conjunctiva, eyelids, proximal lachrymal tract) (part 1 of the present study). The fluorescent IVCM allows the use of a wide range of fluorescent markers liable to increase the specificity of the diagnosis by revealing staining patterns corresponding to a specific disease and not to others (part 2 of the study)

Study Overview

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Interventional

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.
112

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.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Presenting with an ocular or ocular adnexa disease (infectious keratitis, stromal dystrophy, corneal surgery, ocular surface toxicity of eyedrops, cornea-conjunctival tumors, chronic blepharitis, eyelid tumors, diseases of the proximal lachrymal tract).
  • For the microangiography: diabetic patients

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Allergy to one of the 3 dyes (fluorescein, indocyanine green, rose Bengal)

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.

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.
