Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To determine patient preference and treatment outcomes with an intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4mg) insert compared to standard steroid drop regimen in the contralateral eye following bilateral PRK surgery.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Dextenza 0.4Mg Ophthalmic Insert
  • Drug: Topical Prednisolone
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Prospective Open-label Interventional Study Randomized, self-controlled design in which one eye (Group A) receives Dextenza and the second eye (Group B) receives prednisolone acetate 1% QID 1 week, BID 1 week following bilateral PRK surgery. All eyes will receive topical moxifloxacin QID for one week. Moxifloxacin in used post-op regardless of the research. Post-operative evaluations to be performed on Day 3 and Day 4, Month 1, and Month 3. Phone call survey to be performed on Week 2.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Group A Dextenza

Drug: Dextenza 0.4Mg Ophthalmic Insert
The insert, containing 0.4 mg of active pharmaceutical product, is placed within the canaliculus to provide a sustained and tapered delivery of drug to the ocular surface over 30 days after a one-time insertion. The attributes of the insert reduce the risks for improper corticosteroid tapering and unwanted peaks and troughs in drug concentration.

Active Comparator: Group B Topical Prednisolone

Drug: Topical Prednisolone
Standard of care topical drop treatment

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Patient preference [Through Month 1 (Day 28 +/- 3 days)]

    As measured by adapted COMTOL survey

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of eyes epithelialized at Day 3 and Day 4. [Post-Operative Day 3 and 4:]

  2. Mean pain score per eye (Group A vs. Group B) [Day 3, Day 4, Week 2 (collected via telephone survey), and Month 1]

    measured by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)

  3. Patient preference [Pre-op Visit and Month 1.]

    measured by a modified SPEED questionnaire

  4. Incidence and grade of post-operative corneal haze [Pre-op Visit, Month 1, and Month 3.]

    measured by Heidelberg Anterior Segment OCT

  5. Post-operative corneal staining score [Day 3, Day 4, Month 1, and Month 3.]

    measured by the National Eye Institute (NEI) grading system

  6. Uncorrected visual acuity [Month 1 and Month 3.]

    measured by ETDRS chart at 4m

  7. Manifest Refraction Spherical Equivalent [1 and Month 3]

    measured by the Optometrist
