Post Approval Study of the CyPass System

Not Applicable
Terminated
Conditions
Primary Open-angle Glaucoma
Cataract
Interventions
Device: CyPass Micro-Stent implanted with CyPass 241-S applier
Procedure: Cataract surgery
Registration Number
NCT03273907
Lead Sponsor
Alcon Research
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the rate of clinically relevant complications associated with CyPass Micro-Stent placement and stability using the CyPass 241-S applier, as determined at 36 months in the postmarket setting, is less than the pre-specified performance target, which is based on experience with the CyPass Model E applier in COMPASS trial TMI-09-01 (NCT01085357).

Detailed Description

Each subject's expected participation in the study is up to 37.5 months which includes up to 42 days between the screening and surgery visits, and 36 months of post-surgery follow-up. Only one eye per subject will be implanted.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Eyes With Clinically Relevant Complications Associated With CyPass Micro-Stent Placement and Stability as Determined at Month 36Up to Month 36 postoperative

Device-related complications, as specified in the protocol, included:

* Failure to implant CyPass, defined as inability to successfully deploy or insert the CyPass.

* Clinically significant CyPass malposition, defined as CyPass positioning after deployment such that:

* The device is not in the supraciliary space, or

* Clinical sequela resulting from device position including, but not limited to:

* Secondary surgical intervention to modify device position (eg, repositioning, proximal end trimming or explantation)

* Corneal endothelial touch by device

* Corneal edema leading to loss of BCDVA \> 2 lines at the last postoperative visit, in comparison with preoperative BCDVA

* Progressive ECL, defined as ongoing reduction in endothelial cell count of 30% or more relative to the screening ECD value, where 'ongoing reduction in endothelial cell count' is defined as losses continuing after Visit 5 (6 Month Follow-up).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Eyes With IOP Reduction 20 Percent or More From Baseline While Using the Same or Fewer Topical Ocular Hypotensive Medications at Month 36Baseline, Month 36 postoperative

Intraocular pressure (IOP) was assessed by Goldman tonometry and measured in millimeters mercury (mmHg). A reduction in IOP from baseline indicates an improvement.

Mean Change in IOP From Baseline at Month 36Baseline, Month 36 postoperative

Intraocular pressure (IOP) was assessed by Goldman tonometry and measured in millimeters mercury (mmHg). A negative change value indicates an improvement.

Percentage of Eyes Not Using Ocular Hypotensive Medication With IOP ≥ 6 mmHg and ≤ 18 mmHg at Month 36Month 36 postoperative

Intraocular pressure (IOP) was assessed by Goldman tonometry and measured in millimeters mercury (mmHg). Only one eye per subject was implanted.

Percentage of Eyes With Sight-threatening Adverse Events (AEs)Up to Month 36 postoperative

Sight-threatening adverse events, as specified in the protocol, included:

* Persistent Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) loss of 3 lines or more

* Endophthalmitis

* Corneal decompensation

* Retinal detachment

* Severe choroidal hemorrhage or detachment

* Aqueous misdirection. Note: If an eye had multiple occurrences of an AE, the eye is presented only once in the respective eye count column (n) for the corresponding AE.

Percentage of Eyes With Ocular Secondary Surgical Interventions (SSI)Up to Month 36 postoperative

A secondary surgical intervention may have occurred for any of the following reasons:

* CyPass device explantation associated with CyPass placement and stability

* CyPass device explantation NOT associated with CyPass placement and stability

* Unplanned ocular surgical reintervention associated with CyPass placement and stability

* Unplanned ocular surgical reintervention NOT associated with CyPass placement and stability (as defined in the protocol).

Note: If an eye had multiple occurrences of an AE, the eye is presented only once in the respective eye count column (n) for the corresponding AE

Percentage of Eyes With Ocular SSIs Associated With CyPass Placement and StabilityUp to Month 36 postoperative

A secondary surgical intervention may have occurred for either of the following reasons:

* CyPass device explantation associated with CyPass placement and stability

* Unplanned ocular surgical reintervention associated with CyPass placement and stability.

Note: If an eye had multiple occurrences of an AE, the eye is presented only once in the respective eye count column (n) for the corresponding AE
