Active clinical trials for "Pterygium"

The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ranibizumab given via subconjunctival injection in patients undergoing pterygium surgery.

Ranibizumab, an effective antineovascular drug, will be studied for safety and efficacy in pterygium, a neovascular disorder of the ocular surface.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the ologen (OculusGen) Collagen Matrix is effective and safe to implant as an aid of glaucoma and pterygium surgeries.

Title of the study Efficacy and safety of PRO-155 (Zebesten ofteno®) on inflammation of the conjunctival surface in subjects with grade I-III pterygium vs placebo. Hypothesis H0. The Zebesten® ophthalmic solution (bromfenac 0.09%) is less effective and safe than placebo in reducing conjunctival hyperemia in subjects with grade I-III pterygium. H1 The Zebesten® ophthalmic solution (bromfenac 0.09%) is more effective and safe than placebo in reducing conjunctival hyperemia in subjects with grade I-III pterygium. Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of PRO-155 (bromfenac 009%) ophthalmic solution in the treatment of conjunctival hyperemia and ocular surface inflammation in a clinical model of pterygium grade I to III.

To evaluate the efficacy and ocular safety of bromfenac ophthalmic solution (bromfenac) 0.1% dosed twice daily for the treatment of ocular inflammation and pain after pterygium excision with amniotic membrane transplantation(AMT).

Pterygium is a common ocular pathology facing ophthalmologists that has varied surgical management techniques and high rate of post-operative recurrence. The investigators aim was to compare and evaluate the safety and efficacy outcomes of those two surgical procedures in management of primary pterygium.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of topical 0.2% loteprednol etabonate, a 'soft steroid', compared with topical 0.1% dexamethasone, which is widely used in postoperative pterygium excision to prevent the recurrence of pterygium. If 0.2% loteprednol etabonate is non-inferior in efficacy compared with 0.1% dexamethasone, it may be used postoperatively in pterygium excision patients with the benefit of a low incidence of ocular hypertension or secondary glaucoma.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the use of bevacizumab (Avastin) as an adjunctive medication during pterygium surgery in preventing pterygium recurrence. A pterygium is a white fleshy growth on the surface of the eye, which can be removed surgically. However, after surgical removal, pterygia can recur. One way of minimizing recurrence is by applying a medication called mitomycin C to the surface of the eye during pterygium surgery. However, mitomycin is associated with certain side effects, such as thinning of the eye wall and poor wound healing. Bevacizumab has a different mechanism of action and there is some evidence that it may be useful in preventing pterygium recurrence. In this study, the safety and efficacy of adjunctive intraoperative use of bevacizumab and mitomycin C for preventing pterygium recurrence will be directly compared.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the OculusGen Collagen Matrix is effective and safe to implant as an aid of glaucoma and pterygium surgeries.
