简要总结
This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial investigates the neuroprotective effect of rasagiline in patients suffering from a retinal detachment affecting central vision. Based on results from a study in mice suffering from retinal degeneration, the investigators hypothesize that rasagiline delays neurodegeneration in the retina and improves visual acuity outcomes after retinal detachment surgery. Rasagiline is a second-generation propargylamine with neuroprotective properties modulating the caspase-dependent pathway of programmed cell death.
详细描述
Background
In previous experimental studies neuroprotection by rasagiline has been shown in rds-mice, a model for slow retinal degeneration. It is known from these experiments that rasagiline specifically delays apoptosis, but also modifies inflammation and autophagy. The bioavailability of the drug in the central nervous system is high, and based on the literature is sufficient in the retina.
In retinal detachments the outer layers of the neurosensory retina are deprived of nutrients and degeneration of the photoreceptors occurs fast. This is particularly relevant in the macular area of the retina where the density of photoreceptors is high, such that visual acuity recovery can be significantly limited by photoreceptor loss.
Objective
To assess the neuroprotective effect of oral rasagiline (1mg daily for 7 days) administered perioperatively in patients undergoing surgical retinal detachment repair for central vision involving retinal detachments.
