June 2, 2020 updated by: Amin Faisal Ellakwa, Menoufia University

Evaluation of Conjunctival Autografting Augmented With Mitomycin-C Application Versus Ologen Implantation in Surgical Treatment of Recurrent Pterygium

Ologen implantation with conjunctival autografting shows promising results in surgical management of recurrent pterygium comparable to MMC application with conjunctival autografting with mild non vision threatening postoperative complications.

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

Patients were randomly enrolled into two groups. Group A included 32 eyes of 32 patients who underwent conjunctival autografting augmented with topical application of Mitomycin C (0.2 mg/mL). Group B included 31 eyes of 31 who underwent conjunctival autografting augmented with Ologen implantation.

All patients had a recurrent nasal pterygium after one surgical session for removal of the primary one. Any patient with primary nasal pterygium, or patients with recurrent pterygium who had more than one session for surgical removal were excluded. As well, patients with cicatrizing conjunctival disease or previous conjunctival surgery were excluded from the study.

A comprehensive ophthalmic examination, including best-corrected visual acuity testing, slit-lamp examination, Goldmann applanation tonometry, fundus examination, and examination of ocular motility, was carried out for all patients. According to their corneal extent, pterygia were classified into 3 grades:

Grade 1: Fibrovascular proliferations extend up to one quarter of the corneal diameter.

Grade 2: Fibrovascular proliferations extend up to the center of the cornea. Grade 3: Fibrovascular proliferations extend beyond the visual axis.

Consents were taken from all patients and research was approved by the institutional review board. All measures were in accordance with the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki.

As for group A, 0.2 mg/mL MMC was prepared by reconstituting 2 mg vial of Mitomycin with 10 mL sterile water for injection. When using Mitomycin 10 mg vial, the same concentration was achieved by reconstituting the 10 mg vial 10 mL sterile water for injection. Then 1 ml of the prepared solution was diluted with 4 ml of saline to achieve 0.2 mg/mL (0.02% solution). This solution is stable for 2 weeks under refrigeration, and 24 hours at room temperature (59° to 86°F).

As for group B, 1×2 or 2×2 square millimeter porous collagen matrix was used for each patient

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
32 eyes with Topical application of Mitomycin C in concentration of (0.2 mg/mL).
Time Frame: "through study completion, an average of 1 year".
As for group A, 0.2 mg/mL MMC was prepared by reconstituting 2 mg vial of Mitomycin with 10 mL sterile water for injection. When using Mitomycin 10 mg vial, the same concentration was achieved by reconstituting the 10 mg vial 10 mL sterile water for injection. Then 1 ml of the prepared solution was diluted with 4 ml of saline to achieve 0.2 mg/mL (0.02% solution).
"through study completion, an average of 1 year".
31 eyes with ologen implantation(6 mm in diameter and 2 mm thick.) was used for each patient.
Time Frame: "through study completion, an average of 1 year".
In group B; Ologen was applied under the graft tissue once it is secured in place (half the vial is used for every patient)
"through study completion, an average of 1 year".
