General Exclusion Criteria

  • Participation in any drug or device clinical investigation within 30 days prior to Visit 1 (Screening) or anticipation of participating in any other drug or device clinical investigation within the duration of this study.
  • Participants with a history or presence of chronic generalized systemic disease that the Investigator feels might increase the risk to the participant or confound the results of the study.
  • Female participants who are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Drug Therapies

  • Participants with an anticipated need to initiate or modify medication (systemic or topical) that is known to affect IOP (for example, steroids, α-adrenergic agonists, β-adrenergic antagonists, calcium channel blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme [ACE] inhibitors, and angiotensin II receptor blockers).

Arm Label

Latanoprostene Bunod

Placebo

Arm Description

Participants will receive LBN ophthalmic solution 0.024% in the applicable eye identified during randomization. The first dose will be instilled in the morning (AM) at approximately 11 AM on Day 1 and the remaining 6 doses will be instilled once per day in the evening at approximately 8 PM.

Participants will receive Renu MultiPlus Lubricating and Rewetting Drops (placebo) in the applicable eye identified during randomization. The first dose will be instilled in the morning (AM) at approximately 11 AM on Day 1 and the remaining 6 doses will be instilled once per day in the evening at approximately 8 PM.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Episcleral Venous Pressure (EVP) at Intervals on Days 1 and 8
EVP will be measured non-invasively by using a custom-designed slit-lamp mounted venomanometer. This device utilizes the pressure chamber technique, in which a clear flexible balloon is placed against the surface of the eye, and the pressure is increased until an episcleral vein is noted to blanche. Each EVP measurement will be determined from the mean of up to 3 readings. EVP (millimeters of mercury [mmHg]) will be assessed at 1, 3, and 5 hours post instillation for changes from baseline following a single dose of drug on the first day of treatment and at approximately 12, 16 and 20 hours post-instillation after 7 days of QD in the evening treatment.
Change From Baseline in Diurnal (Daytime) EVP at Days 1 and 8
EVP will be measured non-invasively by using a custom-designed slit-lamp mounted venomanometer. This device utilizes the pressure chamber technique, in which a clear flexible balloon is placed against the surface of the eye, and the pressure is increased until an episcleral vein is noted to blanche. Each EVP measurement will be determined from the mean of up to 3 readings. Diurnal EVP will be computed for Days 1 and 8 separately as the mean of the posttreatment values observed on the day for each eye. Change from the mean of 2 sets of baseline measurements will be computed for each post-treatment time (including diurnal means) as the post-treatment value minus the baseline value for each eye. The difference between treatments (LBN minus placebo) in change from baseline will be computed for each participant.
Change From Baseline in Trabecular Outflow Facility at Intervals on Days 1 and 8
Outflow facility will be measured non-invasively by using constant weight tonography. Four-minute tracings with a 5.5-gram or 7.5-gram weight or two-minute tracings with a 10-gram weight will be used, and tonographic outflow facility will be calculated from the pressure decay curves and standard tables. Outflow facility (mmHg) will be assessed at 1, 3, and 5 hours post instillation for changes from baseline following a single dose of drug on the first day of treatment and at approximately 12, 16 and 20 hours post-instillation after 7 days of QD in the evening treatment.
Change From Baseline in Diurnal (Daytime) Trabecular Outflow Facility at Days 1 and 8
Outflow facility will be measured non-invasively by using constant weight tonography. Four-minute tracings with a 5.5-gram or 7.5-gram weight or 2-minute tracings with a 10-gram weight will be used, and tonographic outflow facility will be calculated from the pressure decay curves and standard tables. Diurnal trabecular outflow facility will be computed for Days 1 and 8 separately as the mean of the posttreatment values observed on the day for each eye. Change from the mean of 2 sets of baseline measurements will be computed for each post-treatment time (including diurnal means) as the post-treatment value minus the baseline value for each eye. The difference between treatments (LBN minus placebo) in change from baseline will be computed for each participant.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The primary objective of this study is to determine the effect of latanoprostene bunod (LBN) ophthalmic solution 0.024% (a single dose and 7 days of once daily [QD] dosing) on 2 aspects of aqueous humor (AqH) dynamics (episcleral venous pressure [EVP] and outflow facility) in participants with ocular hypertension (OHT).
Detailed Description
All participants will receive both the investigational (LBN ophthalmic solution 0.024%) and placebo treatments, with 1 eye receiving LBN 0.024% and the contralateral eye receiving placebo. Each participant will be randomized as to which eye (right or left) will receive LBN 0.024% versus placebo. All participants will undergo a minimum 14-day to maximum 42-day washout period prior to the start of study drug administration.
