Study of CyPass Implantation In Patients With Open Angle Glaucoma Refractory to Single or Multi-agent Topical Therapy

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG)
Interventions
Device: CyPass Micro-Stent
Registration Number
NCT01166659
Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CyPass implantation as a stand-alone therapy for lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) who have failed at least one class of topical medical therapy

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of Eyes With Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Reduction of ≥ 20% at 12 Months Postoperatively Who Were on Fewer or the Same Number of Ocular Hypotensive Medications as Compared With BaselineBaseline; Month 12 postoperative

IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was assessed using Goldmann applanation tonometry and reported in millimeters mercury (mmHg). A reduction in IOP from baseline indicates an improvement. Proportion of eyes is reported as a percentage.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Proportion of Eyes With Achievement of Target IOP With and Without Use of Ocular Hypotensive MedicationMonth 12 postoperative

Target IOP was defined as ≥ 6 mmHg and ≤ 21 mmHg. Proportion of eyes is reported as a percentage.

Mean Number of Topical IOP-Lowering Medications Used in Comparison With BaselineBaseline, Month 12 postoperative

The number of unique glaucoma medications was recorded. The mean number of topical IOP-lowering medications was computed by dividing the total number of medications used (the numerator) by the total number of subjects who reported on medication use at the visit.
