About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Glaucoma

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subject must be greater than or equal to 18 years of age at Screening.
  • Subject must have a documented diagnosis of ocular hypertension, open angle glaucoma.
  • Subject has a mean baseline (Day -7 and Day 0) Hour 0 (T0) untreated IOP of ≥ 24 mm Hg and ≤ 34 mm Hg in each eye, and (T0 + 4h) and (T0 + 8h) IOP of ≥ 22 mm Hg at Baseline Visit 2. Untreated IOP must be ≤ 34 mm Hg in each eye at all time points at both baseline visits.
  • Subject has a BCVA of 0.6 logMAR (20/80 Snellen) or better in each eye as measured using an ETDRS chart.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Presence of any uncontrolled systemic or debilitating disease (e.g. cardiovascular disease, hypertension, diabetes, or cystic fibrosis).
  • Punctum size is smaller than 0.4mm or greater than or equal to 1.0mm.
  • Any single IOP in either eye at any time point during the Screening or either Baseline (Day -7/Day 0) Visits of >34 mm Hg.

OTX-TPa

OTX-TPb

Timolol

Arm Description

OTX-TPa is a hydrogel punctum plug eluting travoprost in sustained release of ~4µg/day over approximately 2 months. For study masking purposes, subjects in this arm will also have natural tears drops administered.

OTX-TPb is a hydrogel punctum plug eluting travoprost in sustained release of ~3µg/day over approximately 3 months. For study masking purposes, subjects in this arm will also have natural tears drops administered.

Timolol Maleate (0.5%) ophthalmic solution dosed twice daily (BID). For study masking purposes, subjects in this arm will also have a hydrogel punctum plug with no drug placed for approximately 3 months.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Mean IOP change from baseline

Secondary Outcome Measures

Visualization of OTX-TP punctum plug by subject
OTX-TP punctum plug contains conjugated fluorescein to serve as a visualization aid through use of a blue light source and yellow filter to confirm product presence daily by subject for 90 days.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how OTX-TP, a sustained release travoprost drug product, when placed in the canaliculus of the eyelid compares to timolol drops for the lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
