A Study Demonstrating The Effect Of Latanoprost In Combination With Timolol, Latanoprost Alone And Timolol Alone On Eye Pressure In Open Angle Glaucoma Or Ocular Hypertension In Patients
Phase 3
Completed
- Conditions
- Open-angle GlaucomaOcular HypertensionGlaucoma
- Interventions
- Drug: i. Fixed combination of latanoprost 0.005% and timolol 0.5%
- Registration Number
- NCT00856622
- Lead Sponsor
- Pfizer's Upjohn has merged with Mylan to form Viatris Inc.
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that fixed combination of latanoprost and timolol (PhXA41) has better IOP lowering effect than the individual monotherapies.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To demonstrate that the fixed combination of latanoprost and timolol has a better IOP-reducing effect than the individual monotherapies. 6 months
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To compare the number of treatment failures and patients withdrawn due to uncontrolled IOP from baseline to Week 26 between treatment groups 6 Months To examine, within treatment groups, the diurnal IOP reducing effect from baseline for all treatments at Week 26 6 Months To compare the diurnal IOP reducing effect from baseline between the monotherapies latanoprost and timolol at Week 26 6 Months To compare the proportion of patients reaching pre-specified (15, 18, and 21 mmHg) target diurnal IOPs between the treatment groups at Week 26 6 Months To describe the IOP development from baseline to Week 26 for all treatment groups 6 Months To compared the IOP reducing effect from baseline to Week 26 of the monotherapies with the IOP reducing effect from Week 26 to Week 52 of the fixed combination 6 Months To examine, within the fixed combination treatment group, the diurnal IOP reducing effect from baseline to Week 26 and Week 52 6 Months To follow the safety variables throughout the study periods. 6 Months
