Safety and Effectiveness of the PXL-Platinum 330 System for Corneal Cross-Linking in Eyes With Corneal Ectasia

Lead Sponsor:

Goodman Eye Center

Conditions:

Keratoconus

Pellucid Marginal Corneal Degeneration

Eligibility:

All Genders

10+ years

Phase:

PHASE2

Brief Summary

To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PXL Platinum 330 system for performing corneal cross-linking (CXL) for the treatment of ectatic disorders.

Detailed Description

Patients with progressive keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, or at risk for post-refractive corneal ectasia will be recruited and undergo epithelial-on corneal crosslinking with the Peschke ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Subjects who have one or both eyes that meet criteria 1 and 1 or more of the following criteria will be considered candidates for this study:
  • 10 years of age or older 2. Presence of central or inferior steepening 3. Axial topography consistent with keratoconus, post-surgical ectasia, or pellucid marginal degeneration 4. Presence of one or more findings associated with keratoconus or pellucid marginal degeneration, such as:
  • Fleischer ring
  • Vogt's striae
  • Decentered corneal apex
  • Munson's sign
  • Apical Corneal scarring consistent with Bowman's breaks
  • Scissoring of the retinoscopic reflex
  • Crab-claw appearance on topography 5. Steepest keratometry (Kmax) value ≥ 47.20 D 6. I-S keratometry difference \> 1.5 D on the Pentacam map or topography map 7. Posterior corneal elevation \>16 microns 8. Thinnest corneal point \>300 microns 9. Contact Lens Wearers Only:
  • a. Removal of contact lenses for the required period of time prior to the screening refraction: Contact Lens Type Minimum Discontinuation Time Soft or Scleral 3 days Rigid gas permeable 2 weeks

Exclusion

  • All subjects meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from this study:
  • Eyes classified as either normal or atypical normal on the severity grading scheme.
  • Corneal pachymetry at the screening exam that is \<300 microns at the thinnest point in the eye(s) to be treated.
  • Previous ocular condition (other than refractive error) in the eye(s) to be treated that may predispose the eye for future complications, for example:
  • History of or active corneal disease (e.g., herpes simplex, herpes zoster keratitis, recurrent erosion syndrome, acanthomeoeba, etc.)
  • Clinically significant corneal scarring in the CXL treatment zone that is not related to keratoconus or, in the investigator's opinion, will interfere with the cross-linking procedure.
  • Pregnancy (including plan to become pregnant) or lactation during the course of the study
  • A known sensitivity to study medications
  • Patients with nystagmus or any other condition that would prevent a steady gaze during the CXL treatment or other diagnostic tests.
  • Patients with a current condition that, in the physician's opinion, would interfere with or prolong epithelial healing.
