E.1 Medical condition or disease under investigation |
E.1.1 | Medical condition(s) being investigated |
|
E.1.1.1 | Medical condition in easily understood language |
Nearsightedness the ability to see close objects more clearly than distant objects. This is caused by an eyeball that is longer than normal and needs minus glasses to correct the image on the retina. |
Myopie (bijziendheid) is een afwijking van het oog waarbij een min-bril nodig is om scherp te zien in de verte. Dit komt doordat de oogbol te lang is. |

E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To compare the efficacy of Atropine 0.05% to Atropine 0.5% treatment in European children with progressive myopia, and to evaluate the safety, adherence, and reasons for nonresponse. To create an online BIG DATA registry for myopia treatment in the Netherlands which can be used for evaluation of myopia progression in the long term. |
In de Myopia Atropine Dose Trial vergelijken wij 0,05% met 0,5% atropine in 550 kinderen met progressieve bijziendheid in een multi-center, dubbelblind gerandomiseerd onderzoek. De trial fase van het onderzoek duurt 3 jaar, en zal gevolgd worden door een observatie fase van 2 jaar. Toename van de oogaslengte, brilsterkte, de bijwerkingen en therapietrouw worden onderzocht. In de observatie fase wordt de aslengte groei na het stoppen van de trialmedicatie gevolgd. Onderzoeksgegevens worden in een nationaal online platform verzameld en vormen de basis voor verder onderzoek naar bijziendheid in Nederland. De uitkomsten van dit onderzoek zullen uitwijzen welke concentratie de preferente behandeling voor myopie beheersing in Nederland moet zijn, en aantonen of er subgroepen zijn die beter gedijen bij een bepaalde concentratie. |
