12 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety and efficacy of an ocular medication on the treatment of pterygium.
The objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of low dose and high dose CBT-001 eye drop dosed twice daily for 24 months compared to vehicle in reducing conjunctival hyperemia and preventing pterygium progression in eyes with pterygia.

Stage 1: Single Ascending Dose, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics (n=24) Stage 2: Multiple Dose, Safety and Efficacy Study with 28-day Dosing and 5 months Followup (n=51)
A pterygium is a fibrovascular growth originating from the conjunctiva that grows onto the surface of the cornea. Frequently, these pterygia will recur even after surgical resection. Bevacizumab is an inhibitor of angiogenesis, which is needed for recurrent growth. The use of bevacizumab is poorly understood in inhibiting pterygium growth. The objective of this study is to compare the effects of wound healing and recurrence rates in postoperative bevacizumab versus pterygium excision alone.
Ranibizumab, an effective antineovascular drug, will be studied for safety and efficacy in pterygium, a neovascular disorder of the ocular surface.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the use of bevacizumab (Avastin) as an adjunctive medication during pterygium surgery in preventing pterygium recurrence. A pterygium is a white fleshy growth on the surface of the eye, which can be removed surgically. However, after surgical removal, pterygia can recur. One way of minimizing recurrence is by applying a medication called mitomycin C to the surface of the eye during pterygium surgery. However, mitomycin is associated with certain side effects, such as thinning of the eye wall and poor wound healing. Bevacizumab has a different mechanism of action and there is some evidence that it may be useful in preventing pterygium recurrence. In this study, the safety and efficacy of adjunctive intraoperative use of bevacizumab and mitomycin C for preventing pterygium recurrence will be directly compared.
This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.05% (RESTASIS®) in patients with primary pterygium (abnormal growth on surface of eye).
The primary purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ranibizumab given via subconjunctival injection in patients undergoing pterygium surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether local injection of bevacizumab might halt and or cause regression of pterygium growth. This may enable earlier treatment and prevention of pterygium growth into the patient's line of sight thereby limiting the need for surgery and improving quality of life for patients with pterygia.
To Determine if topical cyclosporine 0.05% BID prevents recurrent inflammation and improves comfort in eyes with pterygia.
