The PRIME Study: A Randomized, Controlled, Prospective Study

September 14, 2020 updated by: Vance Thompson Vision - MT

A Randomized, Controlled, PRospective Study of the Effectiveness and Safety of the Ocular Therapeutix Dextenza (Dexamethasone Ophthalmic Insert) 0.4 mg for the treatMEnt of Post-operative Inflammation in Patients Who Plan to Undergo Refractive Lens Exchange (RLE)

To investigate the outcomes of patients undergoing bilateral RLE surgery with treatment of dexamethasone intracanilicular insert compared to topical standard care steroid. Desiged to look at patient preference comparing the insert to drops and will also look at patient outcomes including inflammatin and risk of cystoid macular edema post-operatively.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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

A Randomized, Controlled, Prospective Study design in which one eye (Group A) receives Dextenza and the second eye (Group B) receives prednisolone acetate 1% QID 1 week, TID 1 week, BID 1 week, and QD 1week, following bilateral RLE surgery. All eyes will receive topical moxifloxacin QID for one week and topical Ilevro QD for 4 weeks. Moxifloxacin and Ilevero are used in post-op regardless of the research. Post-operative evaluations to be performed on Day 1, Day 7, and 1 Month.

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.

Enrollment (Anticipated)

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.
20

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

22 years to 75 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Any adult patient who is planned to undergo bilateral RLE surgery with BCVA 20/30 or better
  • Willing and able to comply with clinic visits and study related procedures
  • Willing and able to sign the informed consent form

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients under the age of 22 or above the age of 75
  • Patients who are pregnant (must be ruled out in a women of child-bearing age with pregnancy test).
  • Patients with active infectious ocular or extraocular disease.
  • Patients actively treated with local or systemic immunosuppression including systemic corticosteriods

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Group A Dextenza
Drug: Dextenza 0.4mg Opthalmic Insert The insert, containing 0.4 mg of active pharmaceutical product, is placed within the canaliculus to provide a sustained and tapered delivery of drug to the ocular surface over 30 days after a one-time insertion, The attributes of the insert reduce risks for improper corticosteriod tapering and unwanted peaks and troughs in drug concentration.
Drug: Dextenza
Dextenza 0.4mg
ACTIVE_COMPARATOR: Group B Topical Prednisolone
Drug: Topical Prednisolone Standard of care topical drop treatment
Drug: Topical Prednisolone
Standard of care topical drop treatment

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
Patient Preference
Time Frame: Through Month 1
As measured by adapted COMTOL (Comparison of Ophthalmic Medications for Tolerability) survey (This is measured on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being a worse outcome)
Through Month 1

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
Percentage of eyes that have CME (Cystoid macular edema) post-operatively
Time Frame: Through Month 1
Measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography )
Through Month 1
Mean pain score per eye (Group A vs Group B)
Time Frame: Through Month 1
Measured by Visual Analog Scale (0-10, 10 being the worst outcome)
Through Month 1
Incidence of post-operative corneal haze
Time Frame: Through Month 1
measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)
Through Month 1
Grade of post-operative corneal haze
Time Frame: Through Month 1
measured by OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography)
Through Month 1

Primary Completion (ANTICIPATED)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
