Active clinical trials for "Ocular Hypertension"

Phase III study to compare the safety and efficacy of intraocular implants containing Travoprost at two different elution rates versus Timolol Maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5% (Timolol) in reducing elevated intraocular pressure in subjects with open angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT)

A randomized controlled trial to evaluate which treatment protocol in selective laser trabeculoplasty that is most optimal in terms of efficacy and safety.

The aim of this research study is to assess the safety and feasibility of lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) using an experimental study drug, JV-GL1.

Common complications of the Boston keratoprosthesis type 1 (KPro) surgery include retroprosthetic membrane formation, glaucoma, and retinal detachment. Often pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) is performed at the same time as KPro surgery for different indications. It has been shown to reduce postoperative complications in comparison to when it is performed after the KPro surgery. Patients who receive a complete PPV with peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane have a lower incidence of retroprosthetic membrane formation and less vision loss due to glaucoma when compared to patients with partial PPV or anterior vitrectomy. During a complete PPV, peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane is a difficult step because visualisation is poor, but it can be improved using endoscopy. The investigators suggest that peeling of the anterior hyaloid membrane assisted by endoscopy during KPro surgery would decrease postoperative complications in comparison to a PPV done after KPro surgery and without endoscopy.

Monitoring the intraocular pressure (IOP) is one of the most important tests used in follow-up among glaucoma suspects and confirmed glaucomatous patients.

Glaucoma is a chronic optic neuropathy whose main modifiable risk factor is an abnormally elevated intraocular pressure. The aim of glaucoma treatment is to slow the progression of the disease by reducing intraocular pressure. Prostaglandin derivatives are the most effective topical drugs in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP). Among these, latanoprost was the first agent of this type to be approved for use in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These eye drops are available with and without preservatives. There are two commercial brands in our environment, Xalatan®, which contains 0.005% latanoprost and 0.2 mg/ml benzalkonium chloride (BAK) and Monoprost®, which contains the same amount of latanoprost but does not carry a preservative. The prostaglandin analog with a lower concentration of active ingredient available in Spain without preservative is tafluprost 0.0015%, commercially available under the name Saflutan®. The long-term use of hypotensive eye drops with preservatives generates changes in the ocular surface, such as instability of the tear film, conjunctival inflammation, subconjunctival fibrosis, apoptosis of the conjunctival epithelium and deterioration of the corneal surface, causing symptoms such as stinging, tearing, sensation foreign body, photophobia and blurred vision. This research will evaluate the changes in the ocular surface and in the expression of inflammatory molecules that occur in the conjunctiva in patients with a diagnosis of glaucoma and ocular hypertension who are under ocular hypotensive treatment with tafluprost, comparing it with the two commercial preparations of latanoprost. These three groups of patients will have a control group of patients with a diagnosis of ocular hypertension who will not have any topical hypotensive medication.

Study to collect effectiveness and safety data after administration of a bimatoprost intracameral implant in patients with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT).

The study will assess the long-term (up to 5 years) safety and performance in patients with open-angle glaucoma uncontrolled by topical hypotensive medications who had previously been implanted with a MINIject glaucoma implant.

This is a phase 3 study to confirm the efficacy in reduction of intraocular pressure and safety of PHP-201 ophthalmic solution in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Qlaris' Phase 2 clinical trial investigating the safety, tolerability, and ocular hypotensive efficacy of QLS-111 in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension patients.
