Collagen matrix vs mitomycin-C in trabeculectomy and combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: Antifibrotic agents are commonly utilized to enhance the success rates of trabeculectomy. Novel approaches to further improve success rates and reduce the risks of complications are needed. The purpose of this study was to compare intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy and safety of trabeculectomy or combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy with mitomycin-C (MMC) vs. Collagen Matrix (CM).A prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial was performed. Ninety-five eyes of 94 patients with uncontrolled glaucoma despite medical therapy, without previous incisional glaucoma surgery underwent trabeculectomy (85 eyes) or combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy (10 eyes) and were randomized to MMC or CM. One eye of each subject was analyzed. Patients were followed for 24 months. The criteria for complete success were IOP >5 and ?21 mmHg with at least a 20% reduction below medicated baseline without additional glaucoma surgery or medications. The main outcome measures were complete success rates at 24 months with Kaplan-Meier analysis and incidence of adverse events.The baseline IOPs were 20.4?±?6.0 mmHg and 21.2?±?6.1 (mean?±?standard deviation, p?=?0.49) on 3.2?±?1.1 and 3.1?±?1.0 medications (p?=?0.53) compared to 11.8?±?5.2 and 12.8?±?3.7 (p?=?0.36) on 0.5?±?0.8 and 0.6?±?1.0 medications (p?=?0.63) at 2 years in the MMC and CM groups, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated complete success rates were similar in both groups at 24 months: 38.4?±?7.6% with MMC and 56.2?±?7.9% with CM (mean?±?standard error, p?=?0.112, log rank test); however, a significantly higher incidence of failure due to persistent hypotony was observed with MMC (p?=?0.002).Use of the CM implant at the time of trabeculectomy or combined phacoemulsification and trabeculectomy is associated with similar complete success rates compared to adjunctive MMC; however, the risk of persistent hypotony is higher with MMC.ClinicalTrials.gov registration number NCT01440751 .

Project description:This unicentric randomized clinical trial was designed to compare the surgical outcomes of mitomycin C-enhanced trabeculectomy (MMC-TRAB) with and without subtenon triamcinolone acetonide (TAAC) injection in patients with non-inflammatory glaucomas. This trial is registered at the Brazilian Registry of Clinical Trials (ReBEC) under the register number RBR-53f8nh. Consecutive non-inflammatory glaucoma patients requiring surgical intervention were randomized into two groups. In the control group, eyes underwent standard MMC-TRAB, while in the intervention group, besides the standard MMC-TRAB, these eyes also received a subtenon TAAC injection (4mg) close to the bleb site at the end of the surgery. The main outcomes of the study were surgical success rates, intraocular pressure (IOP) and number of medications at all timepoints. Success was defined as IOP ≤ 15 mmHg and subdivided in complete or qualified according to the need of medication. A total of 75 eyes of 63 different patients were included (intervention group = 39 eyes; control group = 36 eyes). There was no difference between groups at baseline (p>0.11). Multivariable regression analysis indicated that IOP levels were significantly lower in the intervention group at 18 and 24 months of follow-up when number of medications was considered as a covariate (P<0.001). Complete success rates were higher in the intervention group at 06 (90.9% vs 68.7%; p = 0.03), 12 (87.2% vs 66.7%; p = 0.02) and 18 months (87.2% vs 66.7%; p = 0.02). Additionally, although success rates at 24 months were higher in the intervention group (82.0% vs 66.7%; p = 0.09), this difference did not reach statistical significance. Qualified success rates did not significantly differ between groups at all timepoints. In conclusion, this study found significantly lower IOPs levels at 18 and 24 months of follow-up and higher complete success rates until 18 months of follow-up, with the use of subtenon TAAC as an adjuvant to standard MMC-TRABs in non-inflammatory glaucoma patients.

Project description:ImportanceThe effectiveness of intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering phacoemulsification combined with goniosynechialysis (GSL) compared with phacoemulsification without GSL remains unknown.ObjectiveTo compare the IOP outcome after 1 year in patients with synechial primary angle-closure disease (PACD) and cataract who underwent phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation (PEI) alone compared with PEI with GSL (PEI-GSL).Design, setting, and participantsA multicenter randomized clinical trial was conducted from September 29, 2011, to March 16, 2015; data analysis was performed from April 1, 2015, to March 4, 2019. Patients with PACD, defined as primary angle closure or primary angle-closure glaucoma, and at least 90° peripheral anterior synechiae (PAS) with cataract were included. Patients were randomized to undergo PEI alone or PEI-GSL. Patients were followed up for 1 year with standardized evaluations. Intention-to-treat analysis was performed.InterventionsPhacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation alone or with GSL.Main outcomes and measuresSuccessful control of IOP at 12 months, defined as IOP 21 mm Hg or lower without use of topical IOP-lowering medications and a decrease in IOP of 20% or more from baseline IOP.ResultsData from 78 patients (78 eyes) were analyzed. Of these, 37 patients were Chinese (47.4%) and 54 were women (69.2%); mean (SD) age was 67.7 (8.9) years. Mean deviation (SD) at baseline was -13.5 dB (9.4 dB). Forty patients were randomized to the PEI group and 38 to the PEI-GSL group. The mean (SD) IOP at baseline was 22.3 (8.5) mm Hg for the PEI group and 22.9 (5.3) mm Hg for the PEI-GSL group. At 1 year, the mean IOP was 14.3 (5.0) mm Hg for the PEI group and 15.9 (4.5) mm Hg for the PEI-GSL group. Successful control at 1 year occurred in 21 patients (52.5%) in the PEI group and 22 patients (57.9%) in the PEI-GSL group (mean difference, 5.4%; 95% CI, -18.0% to 28.2%; P = .63). In eyes that achieved successful control, mean IOP at 1 year was 12.5 (2.7) mm Hg (range, 7.0-19.0) for the PEI group and 13.6 (2.4) mm Hg (range, 9.0-18.0) for the PEI-GSL group. The number of medications at baseline and 1 year decreased from a mean of 2.2 (0.8) to 0.5 (0.9) in the PEI group and 1.9 (0.9) to 0.6 (1.2) in the PEI-GSL group (P < .001 for each), with a mean change difference of 0.4% (95% CI, -0.02% to 0.9%; P = .06). There were 3 postoperative complications (7.5%) in the PEI group and 3 (7.9%) in the PEI-GSL group. These included IOP spike (IOP≥30 mm Hg) (n = 3), excessive anterior chamber inflammation (n = 1), and posterior capsule opacification (n = 2).Conclusions and relevanceThis randomized clinical trial was unable to show that PEI-GSL added additional IOP lowering compared with PEI alone in patients with PACD.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02376725.
