Safety and Effectiveness of the PXL-Platinum 330 System for Corneal Cross-Linking
Safety and Effectiveness of the PXL-Platinum 330 System for Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking in Eyes With Corneal Thinning Conditions
Sponsor
Pacific Clear Vision Institute
Enrollment
300 participants
Start Date
Sep 1, 2019
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
To determine whether the Peschke PXL-330 system is safe and effective in the treatment of corneal thinning conditions.
Eligibility
Min Age: 12 YearsMax Age: 45 Years
Inclusion Criteria31
- Subjects who have one or both eyes that meet criteria 1 \& 2 and 1 or more of the following criteria will be considered candidates for this study.
- years of age or older
- Evidence of progressive keratoconus (based on the discretion of the physician as evidenced by an increase in astigmatism, asymmetry, or worsening vision in the last 3 or more months)
- Presence of central or inferior steepening.
- Axial topography consistent with keratoconus
- Presence of one or more findings associated with keratoconus such as:
- Fleischer ring
- Vogt's striae
- Decentered corneal apex
- Munson's sign
- Rizzutti's sign
- Apical Corneal scarring consistent with Bowman's breaks
- Scissoring of the retinoscopic reflex
- Crab-claw appearance on topography
- Steepest keratometry (Kmax) value ≥ 47.20 D
- I-S keratometry difference \> 1.5 D on the Pentacam/Galilei/Orbscan/Cassini map or topography map
- Posterior corneal elevation \>16 microns
- Thinnest corneal point \<485 microns
- AvaGen (Avellino Labs) genetic testing keratoconus risk score of 67 or higher (high risk).
- Signed written informed consent
- Willingness and ability to comply with schedule for follow-up visits
- For Contact Lens Wearers Only: Removal of contact lenses for the required period of time prior to the screening refraction:
- Contact Lens Type Minimum Discontinuation Time:
- Soft: 1 Week
- Soft Extended Wear: 2 Weeks
- Soft Toric: 3 Weeks
- Rigid gas permeable: 2 Weeks per decade of wear
- Scleral Lenses
- Investigator Discretion \[Discontinuation of scleral lenses not required unless there is clinical evidence of corneal hypoxia (e.g. corneal neovascularization) at time of screening\]
- Signed written informed consent
- Willingness and ability to comply with schedule for follow-up visits
Exclusion Criteria10
- Eyes classified as either normal or atypical normal on the severity grading scheme.
- Corneal pachymetry at the screening exam that is \<330 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 active medical implants (e.g. cardiac pacemakers)'
- Patients who are aphakic/ pseudophakic
