研究概览
简要总结
Subjects with Fuchs dystrophy will be randomized to use either netarsudil or placebo eye drops to determine if the use of netarsudil accelerates migration of host peripheral corneal endothelial cells to restore the central endothelial cell layer.
详细描述
Subjects with Fuchs endothelial dystrophy will have the central corneal endothelium and guttae-covered Descemet membrane surgically removed. Subjects will be randomized to use netarsudil or placebo eye drops once daily. Visual acuity, corneal clearing and central endothelial cell density will be monitored for the 3-month study duration.

Netarsudil ophthalmic solution 0.02%, dosed topically daily for the 3-month study duration or until 2 weeks after corneal clearing is complete, whichever occurs sooner
干预措施: Netarsudil (Drug)
Placebo
Placebo eye drop, dosed topically daily for the 3-month study duration or until 2 weeks after corneal clearing is complete, whichever occurs sooner.
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Corneal Clearing After Endothelial Removal for Treatment of Fuchs Dystrophy
时间窗: 5 weeks
The outcome measure was the percentage area of the cornea that remained edematous after removal of the endothelium. At the time of surgery, the surgeon recorded the lengths of the major and minor axes of the approximately circular area of endothelium removal; these values were used to calculate the area of stripping. At each postoperative exam, the examiner recorded the lengths of the major and minor axes of the edematous area; these values were used to calculate the area of edema. The percentage that remained edematous at 5 weeks was calculated by dividing the area of edema at 5 weeks by the area stripped.
