Study of blood flow in the eye for pseudoxanthoma elasticum
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Eyes & vision, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Skin clinical trials.
This study looks at blood flow in a layer of the eye called the choriocapillaris in people with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). It compares these findings with healthy volunteers to understand eye changes before they become severe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a healthy volunteer matched by age and gender to someone with PXE.
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You do not have any known eye diseases like glaucoma or macular problems.
- You are not severely nearsighted (more than -6 diopters).
- You are not diabetic.
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or have given birth recently.

This study looks at whether a new way of organizing care helps patients with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). It also asks some patients about their experience with the new care setup.
This trial tests a compound that affects certain chemicals in your body (purines) to see if it helps people with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a rare genetic condition affecting skin, eyes, and blood vessels.
This study uses special eye imaging to track changes caused by PXE, a rare genetic condition. It may help researchers understand how PXE affects the eyes over time.
This Phase 3 study tests a medicine to help prevent abnormal calcium (called ectopic mineralization) from building up in people with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE). It aims to slow or reduce new damage over time.
This study uses a new imaging device called XyCAM CRE to take detailed pictures of blood vessels in the back of your eye. Researchers will compare these pictures with standard eye exam images to see if the new device works well.
This study uses a special imaging test (OCT angiography) to look at blood flow around the optic nerve in people with advanced glaucoma. It aims to better understand how glaucoma affects eye circulation, which may help improve future care.
