PPS Study- Screening and Classification of Pentosan-Associated Maculopathy in Patients with Interstitial Cystitis

PPS Study- Screening and Classification of Pentosan-Associated Maculopathy in Patients with Interstitial Cystitis

Brief description of study

The primary objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of retinal changes in patients using pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS) for treatment of interstitial cystitis and further characterize this condition using multimodal imaging. Additionally, this study aims to identify additional clinical findings associated with PPS maculopathy and to gain insight into the pathophysiology of PPS maculopathy based on findings from multimodal imaging.

The primary endpoint of the study will be to identify the prevalence of PPS-associated maculopathy in patients receiving PPS for interstitial cystitis. The secondary endpoint will be to identify potential factors (e.g. cumulative dose exposure) associated with elevated risk of developing PPS-associated maculopathy.
