|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCT01001806 ↗ | A Comparison of Peak Aqueous Penetration of Acuvail (Ketorolac 0.45%), Xibrom (Bromfenac 0.09%), and Nevanac (Nepafenac 0.1%)in Patients Undergoing Phacoemulsification | Completed | Allergan | Phase 4 | 2009-10-01 | Approximately 126 subjects scheduled to undergo cataract surgery by phacoemulsification, will be randomized in an even allocation (1:1:1) to either Acuvail, Xibrom, or Nevanac. Subjects will be instructed to begin dosing the study medication in the operative eye the day before surgery and continue dosing on the day of surgery. Beginning one hour before surgery, 1 drop of study medication will be instilled by operating room staff approximately every 15 minutes for a total of 3 doses. At the designated time a paracentesis will be performed at the start of the cataract procedure and at least 0.15 cc of aqueous humor will be collected. The sample will be immediately stored on dry ice and shipped to a laboratory for analysis. |

| NCT01609881 ↗ | The Role of Prostaglandins in the Progression of Diabetic Retinopathy | Withdrawn | Vanderbilt University | Phase 1 | 2012-03-01 | Objective of the research study: 1. To measure anterior chamber and vitreous ketorolac (Acuvail®) concentrations after topical administration in patients undergoing routine vitrectomy to determine the ability of the medication to penetrate into the anterior chamber and vitreous cavity, and to compare these levels to the IC50 for the cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 enzymes (COX-1 and COX-2) 2. To measure vitreous concentrations of prostaglandin subtypes (PGE, PGD, PGF) and other inflammatory mediators (Interleukin-1β [IL-1β], IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α, VEGF) in both diabetic and nondiabetic patients undergoing vitrectomy 3. To determine if topical ketorolac (Acuvail®) can penetrate the anterior chamber and vitreous cavity sufficiently to decrease levels of intraocular inflammatory mediators that have been shown to be elevated in diabetic patients 4. To serve as a precursor to a 5-year longitudinal clinical trial to determine if chronically administered topical ketorolac (Acuvail®) can prevent, delay or slow diabetic retinopathy. Research hypothesis 1. Ketorolac (Acuvail®) will penetrate the anterior chamber and vitreous cavity sufficiently to achieve levels above the IC50 for COX-1 and COX-2 2. Prostaglandin and other inflammatory mediator levels in the anterior chamber and vitreous cavity will be significantly higher among diabetic patients than nondiabetic controls 3. Acuvail® can significantly lower anterior chamber and vitreous cavity levels of prostaglandins and other inflammatory mediators in diabetic patients |
| NCT01640171 ↗ | Anesthesia Preference for Intravitreal Injection: Topical or Subconjunctival | Completed | Retina Vitreous Associates of Florida | N/A | 2012-07-01 | Since 2004, intravitreal injection of Avastin, Lucentis, and Macugen for wet age-related macular degeneration, retinal vein occlusion, and diabetic macular edema are being administered in the United States at increasing rates. A 2010 study showed that in Canada and the incidence of injections grew 8 fold from 2005 to 2007 to 25.9 injections per 100,000 citizens. (Campbell 2010) In 2009, in the United States, over 1 million intravitreal injections were administered to Medicare beneficiaries. (Wykoff 2011) In the year 2011, the four doctors in my retina group administered a total of 6,494 intravitreal injections; in 2010, we administered 5021 intravitreal injections. Even though intravitreal injections are commonly administered, the optimal method of anesthetizing the eye prior to injection has yet to be determined. Some physicians use an anesthetic drop, some a soaked cotton pledget, some use an anesthetic gel and some use subconjunctival injected anesthetic. In 2009, the last time the Procedures and Trends Survey (PAT) (Mittra 2009) conducted by the American Society of Retina Specialists (the largest retina society in the world) asked about anesthetic methods for administering intravitreal injections, the following response was given by the 433 respondents: - Topical anesthetic drop: 21.48% - Topical viscous anesthetic: 23.33% - Topical anesthetic & soaked cotton-tip or pledget: 29.79% - Subconjunctival injection of anesthetic: 24.02% - Other: 1.39% An editorial in 2011 in the journal Retina, discusses the lack of good studies assessing optimal anesthetic prior to intravitreal injections.
