Brief Summary:
The trial evaluates the effect of corneal crosslinking as pre-treatment before corneal transplantation. The goal is to improve graft survival by reducing pathological vessels through pre-treatment.
Detailed Description:
Multicenter, two armed, controlled, open randomised parallel-group study to evaluate the effect of corneal crosslinking as pre-treatment vs. no pre-treatment ahead of full-thickness penetrating corneal transplantation.
After screening of inclusion and exclusion criteria, eligible subjects will be included after obtaining informed consent. Randomisation will be performed at a 5:4 ratio. (Protocol V04\_0 Page 37) At the baseline assessment, a slit lamp examination and photo documentation as well as LaserFlareCellMeter (if available), corneal tomography, and Slit lamp Adapted Optical Coherence Tomography (SL-OCT) measurements will be performed. In addition, visual acuity and a vision-related quality of life will be assessed. Concomitant medication will be documented. Macula OCT will be performed if deemed necessary. In the intervention arm, the study intervention (CXL) will then be administered to reduce CoNV 10-8 weeks prior to corneal transplantation. Two weeks after CXL a control will be performed including AE documentation, slit lamp examination, SL-OCT, corneal tomography, visual acuity and photo documentation. The study intervention will be repeated once if insufficient (less than 50%) reduction of CoNV should be observed (4 weeks prior to corneal transplantation at the latest). All subjects in the intervention arm will then undergo for corneal transplantation. In the control arm, subjects will be directly scheduled for corneal transplantation. Corneal transplantation will be performed as standard full-thickness penetrating procedure, and the graft (6.5 - 8.25 mm 7.75 mm in diameter) will be secured with 16-24 interrupted single or double running 10-0 nylon single sutures (decision by the surgeon). Postoperatively, follow-up assessments will be performed at 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months for all subjects (postoperative visits at these time points are standard of care). A slit lamp examination, concomitant medication, AE and photo documentation as well as LaserFlareCellMeter (if available), corneal tomography, SL-OCT, and corneal endothelial cell count measurements will be performed. In addition, visual acuity and a vision-related quality of life will be assessed. Macula OCT will be performed if deemed necessary. If a subject has any complaints, he or she can contact the responsible trial site at any time.
After consultation with the investigator, additional visits can be scheduled. (Protocol V04\_0 Page 50)
