Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

Open-angle glaucoma is a degeneration of the optic nerve, highlighted by campimetric alterations, and wose only current therapeutic target is the lowering of the intra-ocular pressure (using eye drops, surgery or laser). MEMOPTIC is a tablet combining citicoline, magnesium and Gingko biloba, which have a neuroprotective effect already used in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease for example. Citicoline has also shown several promising results in ophthalmological diseases (glaucoma, amblyopia or more recently in ischemic optic neuropathies). The citicoline used in eye drops (NEURODROP) has already shown results on the preservation of the vision of glaucomatous patients. The purpose of this project is to determine if MEMOPTIC can have an effect, in addition to the conventional treatments, in the preservation of vision of patients treated for an open-angle glaucoma.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Metformin could prevent the progression of glaucoma in a safe and effective manner.

The purpose of this post-approval study is to evaluate the rate of Hydrus Microstent malposition and associated clinical sequelae occurring within 24 months post-operation. Qualified subjects will undergo uncomplicated cataract surgery with placement of a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL), followed by implantation of the Hydrus Microstent.

Phase IV randomized, double blind, multicenter, parallel group clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of the combined use of Krytantek Ofteno PF® and Gaap Ofteno PF®, both applied every 12 hours, versus the use of Eliptic Ofteno PF® Plus Gaap Ofteno PF®, both applied every 12 hours, in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension during 90 days

It is a phase III, multi-center, randomized, single-blind (to evaluator), parallel, and positive-controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of OPC-1085EL in the treatment of primary open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in Chinese subjects. It is planned that 240 subjects (120 in each group) will be randomly assigned to receive OPC-1085EL or 0.005% latanoprost ophthalmic solution (latanoprost) at a ratio of 1:1.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of methazolamide, 25 mg or 50 mg tablets once a day for a week than twice a day for a week, on lowering intraocular pressure and the safety of methazolamide.

To investigate whether the IOP lowering efficacy of STN1012600 ophthalmic solution 0.002% is non-inferior to that of latanoprost 0.005% in subjects with POAG or OHT after treatment for 4 weeks.

To assess efficacy, and safety of a single sustained release dose of the OTX-TIC drug product (2 travoprost dose strengths) in subjects with Open Angle Glaucoma (OAG) or Ocular Hypertension (OHT)

A prospective, multicentre, randomized, blinded, masked study that involves the enrollment of 60 patients affected by open angle glaucoma (OAG). Patients selected according to the inclusion / exclusion criteria, after signing the informed consent, will be randomized into two groups: In a group of patients with OAG, Citicoline in oral solution (10 ml / day, Neurotidine®) will be administered for 12 months (Citicoline Treated Group, TC Group) in another group of patients with OAG will be administered Placebo (Containing all excipients of Neurotidine ®) (10 ml / day) for 12 months (Placebo Treated Group, TP Group) Randomization will be done by dividing the selected patients into two groups based on similar characteristics of: age, perimetric defect and, mainly, retinal-cortical time (RCT) values. Patients will be assigned to each group by an investigator not involved in functional and structural testing. The key will be opened only at the end of the treatment in order to evaluate the first effects. The Primary Objective was to evaluate whether treatment with Citicoline in oral solution can produce an improvement of the post-retinal neural conduction, that is delayed in patients with OAG. The Secondary objective was to evaluate in patients with OAG whether the possible changes in post-retinal neural conduction induced by treatment with Citicoline in oral solution (information obtained through electrophysiological recordings) are associated or not with morphological and functional variations of the nervous structures forming the visual pathways (nucleus geniculatus lateral, optic tract, visual cortex, information obtained through the acquisition of structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging) and whether both conditions can be related to the morpho-functional variations of the retinal ganglion cells and of the visual field (VF).

Glaucoma is a chronic and progressive optic neuropathy characterized by degeneration of ganglion cells and axons with loss of visual function. It is estimated that glaucoma, which is the second cause of preventable blindness in the world, affects nearly 60 million people worldwide. The most common type of glaucoma is primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). POAG is a chronic progressive optic neuropathy with characteristic morphological changes in the optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber. POAG, progressive retinal ganglion cell death and visual field loss are associated with these changes. Risk factors for POAG are age, race, high intraocular pressure (IOP), family history of glaucoma, thin central corneal thickness (CCT), high myopia. IOP is the only modifiable risk factor that we can control. For this reason, the priority in the treatment of POAG has always been to reduce IOP. In glaucoma, the essential point is to preserve the damaged ganglion cell layer and therefore the visual functions. In addition to clinical examination, visual field measurements that measure functions, optical coherence tomography (OCT) thickness measurements that measure anatomical changes, and optic nerve head parameters are the most reliable methods for both diagnosis and evaluation of the efficacy of treatment. Following the results of the visual field and OCT measurements, it will be tried to determine to what extent glaucoma damage can be ceased by the developed GlaucoT glaucoma treatment glasses. In this study, it is aimed to measure the effectiveness and safety of flicker light therapy, the effectiveness of which has been investigated in the treatment of Alzheimer's previously and has clinically significant results, with the GlaucoT glaucoma treatment glasses, which was developed to cease visual field loss with patient comfort at the forefront and at a lower cost.
