DY002: Safety and Effectiveness of DYME as an Agent for Selective Staining of the Anterior Capsule During Cataract Surgery (AQNA-DY002)
This study has been terminated.
( Terminated due to reasons unrelated to safety )
First Received: January 9, 2008   Last Updated: February 27, 2009   History of Changes
Sponsored by: Aqumen Biopharmaceuticals, N.A.
Information provided by: Aqumen Biopharmaceuticals, N.A.
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00596492
  Purpose

The primary objective of this study is to test the hypothesis that DYME is safe and effective as a drug to facilitate continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis (CCC) by selectively staining the anterior capsule. Secondary objectives are to compare the safety and effectiveness of DYME to that of a smaller dose of the same API.


Condition Intervention Phase
Mature Cataracts
Drug: DYME
Phase III

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Treatment, Randomized, Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Dose Comparison, Parallel Assignment, Safety/Efficacy Study
Official Title: AQNA-DY002: A Double-Masked, Randomized Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of DYME as an Agent for Selective Staining of the Anterior Capsule During Cataract Surgery

Further study details as provided by Aqumen Biopharmaceuticals, N.A.:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Optimal curvilinear capsulorrhexis with a single dose, as assessed by the surgeon based on the tissue dyed and subsequently removed. [ Time Frame: During surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Uncomplicated discharge [ Time Frame: Three months post-op ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Quality of stain [ Time Frame: during surgery ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Intra-ocular safety of DYME as measured by best corrected visual acuity, corneal endothelial cell count, intraocular pressure, presence/absence of retained dye, duration of surgery, and the absence of dye related adverse events [ Time Frame: 1-day and 1-week post-op ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • Intra-ocular safety of DYME as measured by corneal endothelial cell count [ Time Frame: Three months post-op ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Estimated Enrollment: 200
Study Start Date: May 2008
Estimated Study Completion Date: December 2008
Estimated Primary Completion Date: September 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions

  Eligibility

Ages Eligible for Study:   18 Years and older

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:   No
Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have a cataract sufficiently opaque/mature/brunescent that, in the surgeon's assessment,a dye could facilitate surgery;
  • Be aged at least 18 years old at the time of enrollment;
  • Be in a medical condition suitable for cataract surgery;
  • Able and willing to participate in study examinations and visit schedule; and
  • Understand and freely consent to participate in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • In either eye, ocular infection or inflammation within the past 3 months;
  • Known allergy to BBG 250;
  • Uncontrolled intercurrent diseases including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, or cardiac arrhythmia;
  • Active treatment for cancer or systemic infection within the past month;
  • Active treatment with systemic corticosteroids within the past month;
  • Previous participation in this Study for the contralateral eye;
  • Participation in another clinical trial involving an investigational therapeutic during the past 30 days or 5.5 half-lives (if applicable), whichever is longer;
  • Unwillingness to participate in the study or inability to give informed consent; or
  • Any medical condition that in the opinion of the Investigator may compromise the research subject's safety or ability to participate in the study.
