STARflo European Safety and Efficacy Study

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Open Angle Glaucoma
Interventions
Device: STARflo Glaucoma Implant
Registration Number
NCT02272569
Lead Sponsor
iSTAR Medical
Brief Summary

Prospective, Non-comparative, Multi-center clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the STARflo Glaucoma Implant in patients with refractory open angle glaucoma.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, multicenter clinical trial to assess the efficacy and the safety of the STARflo™ Glaucoma Implant.

Patients will enter the study after providing written informed consent. Patients will be screened to confirm that they are eligible for study participation.

When eligibility has been established using the in/exclusion criteria, surgery will be scheduled.

Pre and post-surgery, patients will be evaluated at scheduled intervals (1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months) for a total duration of 24 months following surgery.

Main

Exclusion Criteria
  • Patients with diagnosis of glaucoma other than open angle glaucoma (e.g. angle closure glaucoma) in the study eye
  • Patients who failed one or more cilio ablative procedure in the study eye if these cilio ablative procedures were performed as a consequence of previous failed filtering surgery
  • Clinically significant intra-ocular inflammation or infection, presence of ocular disease such as uveitis, ocular infection, severe dry eye, severe blepharitis, active proliferative/inflammatory retinopathy in the study eye
