Trial summary

The purpose of the study is to determine whether combined cataract and glaucoma surgery (phacotrabeculotomy)is more effective in lowering intraocular pressure than cataract surgery alone in patients with borderline control of intraocular pressure. Read more about this study

  • Phacoemulsification, Implantation of IOL, trabeculotomyProcedure or surgery

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Patients with Constant Intraocular Pressure <18 mmHg with/without medication

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Number of Patients with Constant Intraocular Pressure <18 mmHg without medication

  2. Number of Patients with Constant Intraocular Pressure <21 mmHg with/without medication

  3. Number of Patients needing surgical retreatment

  4. Number of Patients with failure of surgical retreatment

  5. Mean IOP after 1 and 2 years

  6. Mean number of medication after 1 and 2 years

  7. Number of intraoperative complications

  8. comparison of postoperative complications between the groups

  9. Visual acuity

  10. decrease in perimetry

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Phacoemulsification, implantation of intraocular lens and Phacoemulsification, Implantation of IOL, trabeculotomy in people with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma and Pseudoexfoliative Glaucoma, run by Medical University of Vienna.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early. Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Patients with Constant Intraocular Pressure <18 mmHg with/without medication. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jul 2010.
