Previous studies in humans have shown that, taken by mouth, the drug cyclosporin is effective in treating chronic uveitis.\n\nUveitis may require long-term treatment with potent immune-suppressing drugs, such as cyclosporin, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, azathioprine or steroids. Taken systemically (by mouth or injection), however, these drugs can do serious damage to the kidneys, liver or lungs, and can raise blood pressure and lower blood cell counts. Because of this, some patients cannot or will not use these medicines.\n\nThis small pilot study will evaluate the safety, and to some extent effectiveness, of cyclosporin delivered directly into the eye, to try to prevent harmful side effects. In animal studies, sustained-release cyclosporin implants did not cause the severe side effects seen with systemic use of the drug. Some animals developed opacity of the lens and slowed retinal responses, both of which reversed when the drug was stopped. Earlier animal studies of cyclosporin injected directly into the eye reduced inflammation that had been produced experimentally.\n\nPatients with uveitis who have active inflammation and poor vision are eligible to participate in this study. Patients will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment groups. One group will receive a 1-mg implant that releases 0.8 micrograms of drug each day; the second group will receive a 2-mg implant that delivers 1.4 micrograms of drug a day.\n\nBefore surgery, patients will have a medical history, basic physical examination, and complete eye examination, including special tests called electroretinogram and fluorescein angiography. An electroretinogram measures the electrical responses generated in the retina in the back of the eye. Fluorescein angiography uses a special camera to photograph the retina, showing the condition of the blood vessels in the eye.\n\nThe surgical procedure to place the implant takes about 1.5 hours and may be done under either local or general anesthesia. Patients will stay in the hospital overnight. After discharge from the hospital, they will return for follow-up visits 1 and 2 weeks after surgery, then once a month for 6 months, and then every 3 months until the implant is depleted of drug or removed. During these follow-up visits, eye examinations will be repeated to evaluate the effects of the implant on the eye. Repeat blood tests will measure the amount of cyclosporin in the blood and the drug's effect on the kidneys. When the implant runs out of drug (between 2 and 3 years), it may be removed or left in place.", "DetailedDescription"=>"Sight threatening uveitis may require long term use of systemic immunosuppressants. In some patients, aggressive systemic immunosuppressive therapy fails to control inflammation and can lead to serious side effects. Oral Cyclosporin A (CsA) has been shown in several human trials to be effective in treating chronic uveitis. This pilot study will assess the safety, and to some extent efficacy, of a novel intraocular CsA release implant in patients with active inflammation and poor visual acuity in one eye despite immunosuppressant therapy. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive in one eye a 1 or 2 mg CsA implant releasing at either 0.8 microgram per day or 1.4 microgram per day respectively. The main purpose of the study is to assess the safety of the CsA implant. Secondary outcomes will include a change from baseline in the ocular inflammation, visual acuity, and the need for concomitant anti-inflammatory medications."}, "EligibilityModule"=>{"Gender"=>"All", "StdAgeList"=>{"StdAge"=>["Child", "Adult", "Older Adult"]}, "HealthyVolunteers"=>"No", "EligibilityCriteria"=>"INCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nAge range: 15 or older.\n\nActive non-infectious intermediate, posterior or panuveitis present for at least 6 months despite systemic immunosupressive therapy including at least 20 mg of oral prednisone or use of another immunosuppressive agent.\n\nVisual acuity worse than 20/80 (55 letters) and better than 5/200 (4 letters) in the eye to receive the CsA implant, and better than 20/80 (54 letters) in the non-study eye.\n\nBilateral or unilateral uveitis with active inflammation in one eye only (eye to be implanted). Patients may continue systemic immunosuppressants with the exception of systemic CsA. Patients may not take greater than 1 drop of topical steroid four times a day in the eye to be implanted for maintenance of anterior segment inflammation after 1 month postoperatively.\n\nRecordable electroretinogram (ERG).\n\nWillingness and the ability, with assistance of a care giver, if necessary, to comply with treatment and follow-up procedures.\n\nThe ability to understand and sign an informed consent form which must be obtained prior to treatment.\n\nNegative serum pregnancy test (females of childbearing potential only).\n\nNormal serum creatinine (males 0.9 - 1.4 mg/dL, females 0.7 - 1.3 mg/dL).\n\nNo current or past history of retinal detachment.\n\nEXCLUSION CRITERIA:\n\nCurrent or past history of retinal detachment.\n\nPregnant or lactating patients or patients with potential for conception unless using effective contraception. Fertile males must use effective contraception. Contraception would no longer be mandatory for participation in this study at three months postoperatively assuming (1) negligible CsA absorption, (2) patient is not taking any other medications that may affect a developing fetus or spermatogenesis.\n\nPatients who received therapy within the previous one week with any nephrotoxic drugs.\n\nPatients having a known allergy to CsA.\n\nPatients receiving current therapy with CsA. Patients need to be off of systemic CsA seven days prior to implant surgery. Patients may continue other immunosuppressive therapies if needed to control inflammation in contralateral (non-study) eye provided the inflammation is currently not active."}, "IdentificationModule"=>{"NCTId"=>"NCT00001737", "BriefTitle"=>"Cyclosporin Implant to Treat Uveitis", "Organization"=>{"OrgClass"=>"NIH", "OrgFullName"=>"National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (CC)"}, "OfficialTitle"=>"A Pilot Study of a Sustained-Release Cyclosporine A Implant for Uveitis", "OrgStudyIdInfo"=>{"OrgStudyId"=>"980110"}, "SecondaryIdInfoList"=>{"SecondaryIdInfo"=>[{"SecondaryId"=>"98-EI-0110"}]}}, "ArmsInterventionsModule"=>{"InterventionList"=>{"Intervention"=>[{"InterventionName"=>"Cyclosporin A Implant", "InterventionType"=>"Drug"}]}}, "ContactsLocationsModule"=>{"LocationList"=>{"Location"=>[{"LocationZip"=>"20892", "LocationCity"=>"Bethesda", "LocationState"=>"Maryland", "LocationCountry"=>"United States", "LocationFacility"=>"National Eye Institute (NEI)"}]}}, "SponsorCollaboratorsModule"=>{"LeadSponsor"=>{"LeadSponsorName"=>"National Eye Institute (NEI)", "LeadSponsorClass"=>"NIH"}}}}}}
