5 Retinopathy Of Prematurity Trials

Power is an online platform that helps thousands of Retinopathy Of Prematurity patients discover FDA-reviewed trials every day. Every trial we feature meets safety and ethical standards, giving patients an easy way to discover promising new treatments in the research stage.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the i-ROP DL system for autonomous ROP screening. To demonstrate the sensitivity and specificity of the i-ROP DL system on images obtained by healthcare providers in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) setting to detect more than mild ROP (MTMROP), defined as type 2 or worse (as defined by the Early Treatment for ROP \[ETROP\] study), or pre-plus, compared to an image-based reference standard diagnosis (RSD). This study will utilize a large multicenter dataset of images obtained as part of the Multicenter Telemedicine Approaches to Evaluating Acute-phase ROP (e-ROP) Study, a National Institute of Health multicenter study.

The purpose of the pivotal reader study is to assess the readers' accuracy in diagnosing plus disease versus no plus or pre-plus disease with or without the aid of the i-ROP DL. Ophthalmologists' performance metrics for the following modalities will be evaluated: * Standard evaluation following the standard of care process ("without i-ROP DL") * Evaluation following the standard of care process with the aid of the i-ROP DL ("with i-ROP DL") This retrospective multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) study will have an enriched sample of approximately 300 eye cases (1 study eye per subject): 60 plus cases, 120 pre-plus cases and 120 no plus cases. Enrichment is with respect to proportions of plus cases and pre-plus cases. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) based on probability scores of plus disease statistically significantly non-inferior or superior with the aid of the i-ROP DL versus without the aid of the i-ROP DL. Multiple secondary endpoints are outlined in the next section.

Type 1 retinopathy of prematurity in zone I represents the most severe type of ROP and has the worst prognosis. It is unknown whether low-dose bevacizumab will be successful in these severe cases. Also unknown is the timing and extent of peripheral retinal vascularization after low-dose bevacizumab compared with the standard dose. The current study will evaluate whether doses of 0.063 mg and 0.25mg are effective as treatment for type 1 ROP, with ROP and retinal vessels all in zone I.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a disorder of development of the neural retina and its vasculature that can impact vision in vulnerable preterm neonates for a lifetime. This study tests high-speed optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology compared to conventional color photographs at the bedside of very preterm infants in the intensive care nursery, to characterize previously unseen abnormalities that can predict a need for referral for ROP treatment, or poor visual or neurological development later in life, up to pre-school age. Our long-term goal is to help improve preterm infant health and vision via objective bedside imaging and analysis that characterizes early critical indicators of ROP, and poor visual function and neurological development, which will rapidly translate to better early intervention and improved future care.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Retinopathy Of Prematurity clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Retinopathy Of Prematurity clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Retinopathy Of Prematurity trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Retinopathy Of Prematurity is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Retinopathy Of Prematurity medical study ?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Retinopathy Of Prematurity clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Automated Screening for Retinopathy of Prematurity, iROP DL for Retinopathy of Prematurity and Bevacizumab for Retinopathy of Prematurity to the Power online platform.
