简要总结
Aim of this study is to investigate the administration effects of the combination of citicoline 40mg/ml and nicotinamide 15mg/ml oral solution (Kron®) on short term improvement in inner retinal function, bioelectrical activity of the visual cortex and visual function.
详细描述
Prospective, masked, randomized placebo-controlled study to evalute the offect of the oral solution Kron® (citicoline 40mg/ml and nicotinamide 15mg/ml) on patients with a diagnosis of open angle glaucoma and risk of glaucoma progression.
Glaucomatous patients with a diagnosis of open angle glaucoma and risk of glaucoma progression who meet the study criteria will be enrolled and randomly assign to the following two arms:
- Treatment group (TG): 20 patients will receive Citicoline 40 mg/ml + Nicotinamide 15 mg/ml oral solution for 3 months (10 ml/day)
- Control group (CG): 10 patients will be evaluated as control
Once recruited, a clinical evaluator will perform a comprehensive ophthalmologic evaluation at baseline, week 6 and week 12. The following examinations will be done in the following sequence:
- Visual acuity
- Slit lamp evaluation
- PERG
- PEV pattern
- Tonometry
- Visual field
- Optical Coherence Tomography
- Dilated Fundus examination
