I. Title Prevention of ProliFerative Vitreoretinopathy with Intravitreal MethotreXate in Primary Retinal DEtachment Repair (FIXER) Trial * Today's Date: September 18, 2023 II. Principal Investigator * Principal Investigator: Christopher D. Riemann, M.D. (Cincinnati Eye Institute) * Email: criemann@cvphealth.com, Phone: 513-708-1979 V. Research Summary Purpose: To evaluate methotrexate for the prevention of PVR after primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment repair. Methods: Inclusion Criteria: • Any adult patient, age ≥18 years-old, undergoing primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment surgery with pars plana vitrectomy at the Cincinnati Eye Institute in Blue Ash, Ohio who is able to give informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Age \<18 years old * Pregnant patients or patients of child bearing potential unwilling to utilize long term contraception for the 12-week period spanning vitrectomy surgery for retinal detachment repair up until the 3 month postoperative visit. * History of endophthalmitis, ruptured globe or significant trauma in the affected eye * Chronic retinal detachment (symptoms greater than or equal to six weeks) * Any previous previous retinal detachment repair with pars plana vitrectomy, or scleral buckling surgery. Patients having undergone previous pneumatic retinopexy will not be excluded. * Presence of Grade C PVR: full thickness retinal folds or subretinal bands * Patients with contraindications to methotrexate, including breastfeeding, pregnancy, attempting to conceive a child or any known hypersensitivity or intolerance to methotrexate * Patients with diminished mental capacity precluding their ability to give informed consent. Study Design and Randomization This prospective double masked trial will randomize patients into four groups in a 1:1:1:1 fashion. All attending surgeons and patients will be masked to group randomization. Randomization into four groups will occur on the day of surgery by the Cincinnati Eye Institute's pharmacist, Deepali Chachare. Group A will consist of ≥ 150 patients receiving intraoperative infusion with balanced salt solution containing methotrexate (40mg/500mL BSS), and methotrexate intravitreal injections (400mcg/0.05mL) at postoperative weeks 1, 3, 6, and 10. Group B will consist of ≥ 150 patients receiving intraoperative balanced salt solution infusion containing methotrexate, and sham intravitreal injections at postoperative weeks 1, 3, 6, and 10. Group C will consist of ≥ 150 patients receiving a balanced salt solution infusion without methotrexate, and methotrexate injections at postoperative weeks 1, 3, 6, and 10. Group D will consist of ≥ 150 patients receiving intraoperative balanced salt solution infusion without methotrexate, and sham intravitreal injections at postoperative weeks 1, 3, 6, and 10.

EVALUATION OF 5-FLOUROURACIL AND LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT HEPARIN INTRAOPERATIVE INFUSION IN PREVENTING PROLIFERATIVE VITREORETINOPATHY IN HIGH RISK PEDIATRIC RHEGMATOGENOUS RETINAL DETACHMENT
NCT04580147
The primary objective of the study is to determine if serial intravitreal aflibercept injections (IAI) improve the single surgery anatomic success rate following surgical repair of primary, macula involving rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) deemed at high risk for proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Preclinical work has revealed that competitive inhibition of platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) potentiates a pathologic, sustained activation of PDGF receptors that is critical to the progression of experimental PVR. VEGF blockade would mitigate this pathologic activation.
NCT02834559
This study investigates the effectiveness of a simple treatment to prevent proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR). Intraoperative intravitreal 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is used as a prophylactic therapy in high-risk patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD). Our major motivation is to reduce the incidence of PVR in the group that receives the trial drug.
NCT01255293
The purpose of this study is to assess the retinal redetachment rates with 1000 centistoke versus 5000 centistoke silicone oil tamponade for repair of complex retinal detachments.
NCT00371020
To evaluate the effect of combined 5-FU and low molecular weight heparin in infusion on the rate of retinal redetachment after silicone oil removal in cases of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR).
NCT00373282
To evaluate the effect of triamcinolone acetonide in silicone-filled eyes on the outcome of surgery for PVR.
