Filter by:This is a Phase IIa study to assess efficacy and safety of STN1010904 ophthalmic suspension (0.03%, and 0.1 %), twice daily dosing when compared to Placebo in subjects diagnosed with Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD). This study will consist of a Screening Period of up to 15 days and an 18-month Double-Masked Treatment Period, including 9 individual visits to the study site.
Descemet Endothelial Thickness Comparison Trial (DETECT) II is a multi-center, outcome assessor-masked, placebo-controlled clinical trial randomizing 60 patients with Fuchs endothelial dystrophy to DMEK versus Descemet Stripping Only (DSO) with adjunctive Ripasudil.
This double-masked multi-center trial will evaluate the association of diabetes in the cornea donor with transplant success and loss of endothelial cells one year following Descemet membrane endothelial keratoplasty (DMEK). Study eyes will be assigned to receive either a cornea from a donor without diabetes or a cornea from a donor with diabetes.
PQ-504a-001 (Fuchs Focus) is an open-label, single-dose, exploratory study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and corneal endothelium molecular biomarker(s) in subjects with Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy with Trinucleotide Repeat Expansion in the TCF4 gene (FECD3).
Corneal edema is the most common indication for corneal transplantation, accounting for approximately 70% of penetrating keratoplasty (PK), and 100% of endothelial keratoplasty (EK) procedures annually. There is currently no disease-modifying treatment for corneal edema. Topical treatments like hypertonic saline are not effective on a long-term basis. For those with advanced disease, where edema and vision loss are not controlled by topical treatment, the only option is a corneal transplant. A potential approach to avoidance of the risks of corneal transplantation is to inject cultured human corneal endothelial cells (HCECs) into the anterior chamber of the eye. This approach may avoid surgery by re-populating the inner most aspect of the cornea with functioning endothelial cells. Emmecell has developed a treatment based on technology integrating biocompatible magnetic nanoparticles with cultured HCECs to treat corneal edema in a minimally invasive way. The primary objective of this phase 1, prospective, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 3 doses of EO2002 with and without endothelial brushing (EB) or Descemet Stripping (DS) in eyes with corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction that qualify for surgery involving full-thickness corneal transplantation or EK.
This will be a prospective assessment of whether adjuvant Netarsudil use in patients undergoing Descemetorhexis without endothelial keratoplasty improves time to corneal clearance and post-operative central endothelial cell counts. The anticipated enrollment is 25 patients.
Open label, single-treatment, with a concurrent non-treatment control
This study is being done to discover if there is a link between estrogen exposure and the severity of Fuchs Endothelial Corneal Disease. We are trying to understand if the decrease in estrogen levels in post-menopausal women may be a reason why FECD is seen more often in women than men.
This study aims to evaluate and compare incidence of post-operative cystoid macular edema (CME) after Descemet Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK), Descemet's Stripping Automated endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK) and Descemet Stripping Only (DSO).
Prospective, multicenter, randomized, masked, vehicle-controlled, dose-escalation study
