A randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled safety, tolerability and efficacy study of VRDN-001 in participants with chronic thyroid eye disease (TED)
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of foselutoclax (UBX1325) in patients with Diabetic Macular Edema. The main questions the study aims to answer are: - Assess the efficacy of foselutoclax compared to aflibercept - Assess the safety and tolerability of foselutoclax
Dry eye disease is a common condition affecting millions worldwide and costing millions in healthcare due to reduced work productivity and quality of life. The disruption of oil glands in our eyelids known as Meibomian glands, which produce the oily layer of our tears to protect it from evaporating, is one of the most common contributors of dry eye disease. Much effort has been put into developing effective treatments for this condition as new treatments are constantly being introduced to the market. The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate how proven light-based therapies work in treating dry eye disease and oil gland disruption. These therapies include intense-pulsed light therapy (IPL) which uses a series of light flashes on the facial skin surface, and low-level light therapy (LLLT) which uses a mask with a series of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to warm the body cells. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the short- and long-term changes associated with these treatments on the eyelids and surface of the eyes? 2. Does LLLT alone work better than IPL+LLLT in treating dry eye disease and oil gland disruption? Participants with dry eye disease and oil gland disruption will receive four treatments with these light-based therapies each separated by two to three weeks apart, and followed up two to three weeks and three months after the final treatment session. One eye of the participant will receive intense pulsed light together with low-level light therapy, while the other eye will receive only low-level light therapy with a sham intense pulsed light treatment so that the researchers can compare if clinical signs and symptoms improve in one eye more than the other.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of subcutaneous satralizumab, a recombinant, humanized anti-interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor monoclonal antibody, in participants with thyroid eye disease (TED).
Gestational diabetes mellitus is associated with abnormal blood sugar levels throughout pregnancy in women without prior diabetes. Many studies have been conducted on the relationship between diabetes and oxidative stress. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the presence of fundus findings in patients with gestational diabetes and/or impaired blood sugar based on the results of previous studies and to simultaneously investigate the thiol-disulfide homeostasis in the tears of the patients.There was no previous study in the literature on thiol disulfide homeostasis in tears in gestational diabetic patients.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the efficacy, patient preference, and utility of a novel eye shield that utilizes a different adhesive mechanism in comparison to the current standard of care. The aims are to see if this product could be incorporated into postoperative care in the future to improve patient satisfaction and compliance. The study will involve 20 patients during the postoperative timeframe after cataract extraction and intraocular lens placement (CEIOL). These patients will be chosen from the clinic of Dr. Marc Toeteberg who will plan to have both eye surgeries done within 3 months of each other. These patients will be randomized to either control or intervention group. Intervention group will receive our novel eye shield prototype, while control group will receive an Alcon plastic eye shield. Both groups will receive the eye shields after surgery and will be sent home with these eye shields with normal postoperative care directions. Patient will be directed to wear eye shields for 24 hours then at night for first 2 weeks after surgery, while adhering to postoperative eye drops regimen. After successfully healing and passing the postoperative timeframe for the first eye we will proceed to the second arm of the study. Approximately 1-2 months after healing from the first surgery, patient will be scheduled for cataract surgery on the other eye, as is standard of care. After surgery on the second eye the patient will be given the other eye shield than what they received after the first surgery (control groups will receive the novel eye shield and experimental groups will receive the control eye shield). They will proceed to follow identical postoperative protocols after the second surgery. A short quantitative and qualitative questionnaire directly comparing the two eye shield experiences will be provided at the 1 month follow-up after the eye surgery.
Patients who suffer from dry eye disease are often prescribed eye drops containing cyclosporine A that help with reducing inflammation. The newest eye drop containing cyclosporine A is called Cequa (Sun Pharma, Canada). Unfortunately, nearly a quarter of (24.2%) of patients using Cequa have reported some form of discomfort (burning and stinging) when instilling the drops. This potentially discourages patients from continuing the eye drop, which prevents their dry eye disease from being managed effectively. This study is trying to determine if refrigerating the eye drops would allow the drops to feel more comfortable when they are instilled in the eye.
To demonstrate that DMSt + RF improves eye blink quality in subjects with dry eye disease
The Intalight Dream OCT is the first combo anterior plus posterior device to perform both OCT and OCT-A at depth of 16mm. This is especially useful in patient who are very nearsighted as it allows us to image all in one frame. The intention of this study is to see how the images differ on the same patients when compared to the Cirrus OCT and to test for the repeatability of the images on a single day.
