Active clinical trials for "Glaucoma, Open-Angle"

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Brinzolamide/Brimonidine in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) relative to each of its individual active components in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new ophthalmic suspension (Brinz/Brim) in lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) relative to its individual active components in subjects with open-angle glaucoma and/or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy and tolerability of changing to DUOTRAV® from prior bimatoprost 0.03%/timolol 0.5% pharmacotherapy in subjects with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension having uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of external selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) in treating open angle glaucoma,compared to traditional SLT.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the CyPass Implant for lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with glaucoma who undergo cataract surgery.

To investigate dose response, safety and efficacy of PF-03187207 in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of latanoprost on intraocular pressure reduction in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.

The purpose of the study is to compare two ophthalmic solutions in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate equivalent safety and IOP-lowering effectiveness of two Travoprost/Timolol combination products in patients diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. This global study will be conducted in the US (C-07-64, NCT00672997) and Japan (C-08-08, NCT00760539).

Glaucoma is one of the most common causes of blindness in the industrialized nations. For a long time glaucoma has been defined as a disease in which high intraocular pressure (IOP) leads to irreversible optic disc damage and subsequent visual field loss. However, recent investigations show that IOP is not the only factor that is involved in the glaucomatous process leading to retinal ganglion cell death. The role of vascular factors in the pathogenesis of glaucoma has recently received much attention based on animal experiments and epidemiological studies. The main focus of glaucoma is still directed towards a decrease in IOP. There is, however, also considerable interest whether antiglaucoma drugs influence ocular perfusion. Although measurement of ocular blood flow is still difficult, a number of innovative techniques have been realized which cover different aspects of ocular perfusion. In the present study Xalacom® (latanoprost/timolol) and the fixed combination of Combigan® (brimonidine/timolol) will be compared with respect to their IOP lowering efficacy as well as their ocular hemodynamic effects.
