Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

This is a prospective, open label study assessing the 24-hour IOP patterns using TF in patients undergoing anti-VEGF injection for the treatment of neovascular AMD (age related macular degeneration). The study will be proposed to patients with AMD and patients with AMD and concomitant open angle glaucoma (OAG). The study will be conducted in two stages. In both stages, patients will remain ambulatory and will be encouraged to follow a schedule as close to their usual lifestyle as possible, with the exception of particular activities such as caffeine intake, playing wind instruments, yoga and strenuous exercise. A patient diary will be distributed for the capture of patient activities during the TF pattern recording. Upon completion of each session, the CLS (contact lens sensor) will be removed and a final ophthalmic examination will be conducted. In the first stage of the study, 20 patients with neovascular AMD with an IOP in the normal range and no concomitant glaucoma will be recruited. After having signed and dated the patient informed consent form, patients will undergo an initial ophthalmic examination. One eye will be selected for the study. If both eyes are eligible, the study eye will be selected in random manner. All 20 AMD patients will receive two 24-hour recording sessions (S) with the TF CLS, at monthly interval. In the first session (S1) anti-VEGF injection will be carried out according to the study center standard protocol. For the second 24-hour TF recording session (S2), patients will be randomly distributed into three groups. Group A, consisting of 5 patients, will receive anti-VEGF injection with a different anti-VEGF substance as compared to S1. Group B, also consisting of 5 patients, will receive anti-VEGF without sclerotomy occlusion after injection as compared to S1. Finally, group C, including 10 patients, will receive anti-VEGF in a different dose (injection volume) as compared to S1. The randomization ratio between groups A, B and C is 1:1:2. The overall study duration for an eligible patient in the first stage of this study is limited to 5 weeks. If in the first stage of this study an injection protocol is identified that provokes significantly lesser elevation on the TF pattern, the alternative injection protocol will be evaluated against the current standard protocol. For the second stage, 30 patients of whom 15 with neovascular AMD and 15 with neovascular AMD and concomitant OAG will be recruited. After giving informed consent and confirmation of eligibility, all patients will receive two 24-hour TF CLS recording sessions (S3 and S4) at monthly interval, during which anti-VEGF injection according to the standard and alternative protocol will be carried out in random sequence. The overall study duration for a patient in the second stage of the study is limited to 5 weeks. The study has been planned to recruit 20 eligible patients in the first stage within 12 weeks from the date of initiation. The second stage will recruit 30 patients within 16 weeks. Hence the overall study duration from the first patient accrued into the study until last patient out equates to about 33 weeks. Allowing for a database lock within 4 weeks of study completion, a preliminary statistical report on the primary efficacy endpoint is foreseen within 2 weeks thereafter.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a new laser (called Micropulse Laser Trabeculoplasty or MLT) in the treatment of glaucoma compared to the conventional laser presently used which is called selective laser trabeculoplasty or SLT. Both lasers (SLT and MLT) are used as standard of care in the treatment of open angle glaucoma.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the PNT safety and efficacy in term of IOP reduction in a group of previously or newly diagnosed glaucomatous subjects.

To assess the safety and performance of the MIDI Arrow in patients suffering from glaucoma that is inadequately controlled on maximum tolerated medical therapy with intraocular pressure ≥ 18 mm Hg and ≤ 40 mm Hg

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of TRAVATAN® Solution without benzalkonium chloride (BAK) in patients previously on latanoprost 0.005% or bimatoprost 0.01% ophthalmic solution monotherapy.

To evaluate the ocular hypotensive efficacy and ocular and systemic safety of AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution, 0.02% compared to the active comparator Timolol maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5%

The purpose of this study is to evaluate Travoprost/Brinzolamide fixed combination (Trav/Brinz) administered twice daily as compared to each of its marketed components (TRAVATAN Z® solution and AZOPT® suspension) and to the unfixed combination of TRAVATAN Z® plus AZOPT® in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering effect of two iStent devices in eyes of subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma

The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of two iStents for the reduction of intraocular pressure associated with primary open-angle glaucoma.

The purpose of thie study is to compare the safety and IOP-lowering efficacy of AL-37807 Ophthalmic Solution 0.05%, 0.1% and 0.2% dosed QD AM to Xalatan dosed QD PM and Vehicle in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension
