Brief Summary: OBJECTIVES

I Demonstrate the safety and efficacy of dihematoporphyrin derivative DHP in laser photodynamic therapy PDT in patients with corneal neovascularization

II Document the histopathologic mechanism of action in selected patients undergoing penetrating keratoplasty following PDT therapy for corneal neovascularization

III Facilitate FDA product approval of DHP as a photosensitizing agent for laser treatment in these patients

IV Explore the use of this photosensitizer for ocular and cutaneous basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma
Detailed Description: PROTOCOL OUTLINE

This is a randomized placebo controlled study

Patients are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive topical dihematoporphyrin derivative DHP every 3 hours on days -3 and -2 Patients undergo laser surgery on day 0 After photodynamic PDT therapy patients receive topical prednisolone phosphate four times a day for 90 days Ninety days following PDT patients may undergo corneal transplantation

Arm II Patients receive placebo topical gel and undergo sham laser surgery following arm I schedule then receive topical prednisolone phosphate four times a day for 90 days Patients may be crossed over to arm I if disease progression is observed

Arm III Patients receive a compressed 1 day schedule of DHP with 5 doses in the morning and then undergo laser surgery in the evening

Patients are assessed on days 1 7 30 and 90 after PDT therapy
