Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

Exploratory trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of D565H twice daily versus D565 once daily.

It is a comparative study of Safety and Efficacy of Three Variants of Canaloplasty: ab-externo, ab-interno and minicanaloplasty. Combined With Phacoemulsification to Treat Glaucoma and Cataract. It is a Randomised, Prospective Study.

The purpose of the study is to provide evidence that the efficacy of Xalatan will be superior to Apo-latanoprost and Co-latanoprost in the reduction of intraocular pressure in patients with primary open angle glaucoma. The study will also aim to prove the tolerability of Xalatan in terms of ocular hyperemia will be equivalent to its generic counterparts.

This study examines efficacy and tolerability of 3 different Latanoprost 0.005% eyedrops preparations, commercially available in Italy, in subjects affected by primary open angle glaucoma.

The primary purpose is to compare the effect of immediate therapy to lower the intraocular pressure (IOP) versus late or no treatment on the progression of newly detected open-angle glaucoma, as measured by increasing visual field loss and/or optic disc changes. The secondary purposes are to determine the extent of IOP reduction attained by treatment, to explore factors that may influence glaucoma progression, and to describe the natural history of newly detected glaucoma.

To compare the long-term effect of treating newly diagnosed open-angle glaucoma with standard medical treatment versus filtration surgery.

To investigate the effect of patterned laser trabeculoplasty (PLT) compared to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) on intraocular pressure (IOP) in treatment naiv patients suffering from open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Values for IOP will be measured at baseline, 1 day and 1 month post-interventional as well as 2, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months after treatment. Trial with medical device

The aim is to perform a randomised feasibility trial preceding a large prospective randomised controlled trial (RCT) comparing three surgical methods - trabeculectomy with Mitomycin C (MMC), primary Baerveldt tube with MMC and Baerveldt tube without MMC - in black African/African Caribbean patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) living in London. The UK Office of National Statistics estimated that among the population of England in 2007, approximately 4.3% were of African/African-Caribbean background, while in large cities such as London and Birmingham about 20% of the population is of African/African-Caribbean origin. For eye units in these cities, managing glaucoma in this population is challenging and we need to identify a better alternative to our current standard surgical treatment. There is now evidence from one RCT which shows better overall outcomes from tube surgery in comparison to trabeculectomy for glaucoma. However, this study did not address black populations specifically and did not address the potential role of MMC in tube surgery. This feasibility study will enable us to design a fully powered RCT with the aim of determining how best to optimise the surgical treatment of POAG in black populations, by comparing outcomes in three types of glaucoma surgery.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the IOPtiMate (OT-135P) in Laser Assisted Non-Penetrating Glaucoma surgery in Open-Angle and Pseudoexfoliative Glaucoma patients.

This single-center, prospective study will assess safety and effectiveness of 360 degree viscodilation followed by up to 360 degree trabeculotomy used in patients with early or moderate open-angle glaucoma in a real-world setting either as a standalone procedure in pseudophakic patients (or phakic) or combined with phacoemulsification cataract procedures. Medication usage, IOP and secondary surgical procedures necessary for IOP control will be analyzed during the follow-up period.
