Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

To assess the additional benefit of common adjunctive classes on the diurnal IOP curve in patients assessed as needing additional treatment to reach target intraocular pressure (IOP). To demonstrate superiority of IOP control with Istalol 0.5% QD compared to Brimonidine Tartrate 0.2% BID as adjunctive therapy in adults with uncontrolled IOP's (determined by P.I. based on target pressures) currently treated with Latanoprost 0.05% in the study eye(s).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and intraocular-lowering efficacy of anecortave acetate depot when administered by anterior juxtascleral depot (AJD) for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of AL-39256 in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this investigation, in which pilocarpine was given in repeated doses, was to evaluate: Part I - the effects of different concentrations of pilocarpine hydrochloride on intraocular pressure. Part II -the effects on intraocular pressure of glaucomatous patients to pilocarpine 2% when given once, twice and four daily. In addition, we studied various attributes of the eye which may serve as indicators of responsiveness of individual patients to pilocarpine.

Laser Trabeculoplasty has been shown to be effective in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Although initially demonstrated with the Argon laser (ALT), several other laser systems have also been employed with comparable efficacy. Recently, Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (SLT) has been shown to lower intraocular pressure comparable to ALT. The advantage of SLT is that the target eye structure, the trabecular meshwork, remains intact with minimal damage at the cellular level. In contrast, ALT lowers IOP at the expense of scarring of the trabecular meshwork. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lowering IOP with Pascal Laser Trabeculoplasty (PLT) employing reduced energy levels compared to ALT and a computer guided pattern of laser treatment applications.

The purpose of this study was to compare the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy and safety of AZARGA™ (Brinzolamide 1%/Timolol 0.5% Ophthalmic Suspension), dosed twice daily versus AZOPT® (Brinzolamide 1% Ophthalmic Suspension) and Timolol 0.5% Ophthalmic Solution, each dosed twice daily, in Chinese patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who were insufficiently responsive to monotherapy.

This study will evaluate the tolerability and safety of RKI983 ophthalmic solution and explore the effect of the compound on intraocular pressure in subjects with ocular hypertension.

This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety in the use of Ranibizumab, an effective vascular endothelial growth factor (VGEF) inhibitor, in treating patients with a failing bleb, characterized by increased fibrosis and vascularization of the conjuctiva, following trabeculectomy. Six subjects from one site will be enrolled in this study.

The primary objective of this crossover trial is to compare the 3-month mean 24-hour intraocular pressure (IOP) control and safety of dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination (DTFC) given twice daily, versus latanoprost/timolol fixed combination (LTFC) given in the evening and placebo given in the morning, versus adjunctive therapy with DTFC given twice daily and latanoprost 0.005% given once in the evening in open-angle glaucoma patients who are insufficiently controlled with latanoprost monotherapy.

This study will examine the efficacy and safety of Xalacom comparing with those of Xalatan in Japanese patients with POAG or OH, in order to show superiority of Xalacom over Xalatan in efficacy and similarity of safety between Xalacom and Xalatan.
