Safety and Efficacy of Changing to DuoTrav From Prior Therapy

Registration Number
NCT01230736
Lead Sponsor
Alcon Research
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study to assess the safety and efficacy of changing to DuoTrav® from prior bimatoprost 0.03%/timolol 0.5% (used concomitantly or in a fixed combination) pharmacotherapy in uncontrolled patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Must have a clinical diagnosis of ocular hypertension, primary open-angle or pigment dispersion glaucoma in both eyes.
  • Must have an IOP of between 19 to 35 millimeters mercury (mmHg) (at any time of the day) in at least one eye (which would be designated as the study eye).

Exclusion Criteria
  • Known medical history of allergy, hypersensitivity or poor tolerance to any component of DuoTrav® that is deemed clinically significant in the opinion of the Principal Investigator.
  • Corneal dystrophies in either eye.
  • Risk of visual field or visual acuity worsening as a consequence of participation in the study, in the investigator's best judgment.
  • Bronchial asthma or a history of bronchial asthma, bronchial hyper-reactivity, or severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that would preclude the safe administration of a topical beta-blocker.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at 8 weeks from prior therapy (baseline)8 weeks

Goldmann applanation tonometry will be performed at the baseline visit and 8-week visit to record intraocular pressure (IOP). The difference between the two readings will be recorded as the change in IOP. IOP will be recorded in mmHg.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of subjects who reach target IOP (≤18 mmHg)8 weeks

Goldmann applanation tonometry will be performed at the 8-week visit to record intraocular pressure. Percentage of patients who reach target IOP will be calculated by comparing patients with IOP ≤18 mmHg to the overall study population.
