Patients typically report night blindness and difficulty with midperipheral visual field in adolescence. As the condition progresses, they lose far peripheral visual field. Most patients have reductions in central vision by age 50 to 80 years. Based on electroretinograms (ERGs), the course of the disease can be slowed on average among adults on 15,000 IU/day of vitamin A palmitate. While conducting the trial on the effects of vitamin A on RP, it became apparent that another substance in the diet could be affecting the course of the disease. This prompted the present randomized, controlled trial.\n\nThis study is a randomized, controlled, double-masked trial with a planned duration of 5 years. Patients with the common forms of RP are assigned to either a test or a control group. All receive 15,000 IU/day of vitamin A palmitate in addition to either 1200 mg/d of docosahexaenoic acid or control capsules. Participants will not know the contents of the supplement or the group to which they have been assigned until the end of the trial. The main outcome measurement is the total point score on the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA). In addition, computer-averaged 30-Hz cone ERG amplitudes and visual acuity are measured annually."}, "EligibilityModule"=>{"Gender"=>"All", "MaximumAge"=>"55 years", "MinimumAge"=>"18 years", "StdAgeList"=>{"StdAge"=>["Adult"]}, "HealthyVolunteers"=>"Accepts Healthy Volunteers", "EligibilityCriteria"=>"Inclusion Criteria:\n\nOcular Criteria:\n\nRetinitis Pigmentosa, typical (non-syndromic) forms Best corrected visual acuity Greater than or equal to (GE )20/100 HFA 30-2 total point score GE 250 dB (decibels) 30 (Hertz) Hz ERG cone amplitude GE 0.68 microvolts\n\nDietary Criteria:\n\nDark fish intake Less than or equal to (LE) five servings per week Dietary omega-3 fatty acid intake LE 0.41 g/d Preformed Vitamin A intake in diet and supplements LE 10,000 IU/d Supplement intake LE 5000 IU/d of Vitamin A and LE 30 IU/d Vitamin E Consumption LE 3 alcoholic beverages per day\n\nMedical and other criteria:\n\nBody Mass Index Less than (LT )40 and weight GE 5th percentile for age, sex, and height Serum retinol level LE 100 mg/dl and serum retinyl ester levels LE 380 nm/L Serum cholesterol level LT 300 mg/dL and serum triglyceride levels LT 400 mg/dL Agree not to know study capsule content\n\nExclusion criteria:\n\nOcular criteria:\n\nNo confounding ocular disease\n\nDietary criteria:\n\nNo intake of cod liver oil or omega-3 capsules\n\nMedical and other criteria:\n\nNot pregnant or planning to become pregnant No clinically significant abnormal result on Complete Blood Count or serum liver function profile No other disease which might affect absorption or metabolism of DHA or Vitamin A"}, "IdentificationModule"=>{"NCTId"=>"NCT00000116", "BriefTitle"=>"Randomized Trial of DHA for Retinitis Pigmentosa Patients Receiving Vitamin A", "Organization"=>{"OrgClass"=>"NIH", "OrgFullName"=>"National Eye Institute (NEI)"}, "OfficialTitle"=>"Clinical Trial of Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) in Patients With Retinitis Pigmentosa Receiving Vitamin A Treatment", "OrgStudyIdInfo"=>{"OrgStudyId"=>"NEI-12"}}, "ArmsInterventionsModule"=>{"ArmGroupList"=>{"ArmGroup"=>[{"ArmGroupType"=>"Experimental", "ArmGroupLabel"=>"Docosahexaenoic acid + Vitamin A", "ArmGroupDescription"=>"Participants randomized to this arm received 1200 mg/d docosahexaenoic acid and 15000 IU/d Vitamin A as retinyl palmitate", "ArmGroupInterventionList"=>{"ArmGroupInterventionName"=>["Dietary Supplement: Vitamin A", "Dietary Supplement: Docosahexaenoic acid"]}}, {"ArmGroupType"=>"Placebo Comparator", "ArmGroupLabel"=>"Control fatty acid + Vitamin A", "ArmGroupDescription"=>"Patients randomized to this arm received 500 mg/d of fatty acid with no docosahexaenoic acid and 15000 IU/ Vitamin A as retinyl palmitate", "ArmGroupInterventionList"=>{"ArmGroupInterventionName"=>["Dietary Supplement: Vitamin A", "Dietary Supplement: Control fatty acid"]}}]}, "InterventionList"=>{"Intervention"=>[{"InterventionName"=>"Vitamin A", "InterventionType"=>"Dietary Supplement", "InterventionDescription"=>"15000 IU/d as retinyl palmitate", "InterventionArmGroupLabelList"=>{"InterventionArmGroupLabel"=>["Control fatty acid + Vitamin A", "Docosahexaenoic acid + Vitamin A"]}}, {"InterventionName"=>"Docosahexaenoic acid", "InterventionType"=>"Dietary Supplement", "InterventionDescription"=>"1200 mg/d", "InterventionArmGroupLabelList"=>{"InterventionArmGroupLabel"=>["Docosahexaenoic acid + Vitamin A"]}}, {"InterventionName"=>"Control fatty acid", "InterventionType"=>"Dietary Supplement", "InterventionArmGroupLabelList"=>{"InterventionArmGroupLabel"=>["Control fatty acid + Vitamin A"]}}]}}, "ContactsLocationsModule"=>{"LocationList"=>{"Location"=>[{"LocationZip"=>"02114", "LocationCity"=>"Boston", "LocationState"=>"Massachusetts", "LocationCountry"=>"United States", "LocationFacility"=>"Berman-Gund Laboratory for the Study of Retinal Degenerations, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary"}]}, "OverallOfficialList"=>{"OverallOfficial"=>[{"OverallOfficialName"=>"Eliot Berson (Deceased), MD", "OverallOfficialRole"=>"Principal Investigator", "OverallOfficialAffiliation"=>"Berman-Gund Laboratory for the Study of Retinal Degenerations, Harvard Medical School"}]}}, "SponsorCollaboratorsModule"=>{"LeadSponsor"=>{"LeadSponsorName"=>"Carol Weigel DiFranco", "LeadSponsorClass"=>"NIH"}, "ResponsibleParty"=>{"ResponsiblePartyType"=>"Sponsor-Investigator", "ResponsiblePartyInvestigatorTitle"=>"coauthor/program manager", "ResponsiblePartyInvestigatorFullName"=>"Carol Weigel DiFranco", "ResponsiblePartyInvestigatorAffiliation"=>"National Eye Institute (NEI)"}}}}}}
