  • Be able and willing to follow instructions and likely to complete the entire course of the study.
  • Be male or female of any race at least 18 years of age.

Who cannot join

  • No subject may:
  • 1. Have any contraindication to use of a prostaglandin analog or prostamide derivative.
  • 3. Have any active ocular disease other than glaucoma or ocular hypertension that would interfere with study parameters (such as: uveitis, ocular infection, or severe dry eye). Patients with mild chronic blepharitis, age-related macular degeneration, background diabetic retinopathy may be enrolled at the discretion of the investigator.
  • 4. Have laser or any other intraocular surgery within the past three months. 5. Require use of ocular medications (including glaucoma medications), except intermittent use of artificial tears. Patients may not have a history of ever having used a prostaglandin analog topically.
  • 6. Have known allergy or sensitivity to the study medications or their components 7. Have corneal abnormalities that would interfere with the ability to obtain an adequate sample safely or have a shallow anterior which would make obtaining an aqueous sample difficult at the time of surgery in the opinion of the investigator.
  • 8. Be concurrently enrolled in an investigational drug or device study or participation within the last 30 days in any investigational drug or device study.
  • 9. Be pregnant, nursing, planning a pregnancy, or be of childbearing potential and not using a reliable form of contraception (a woman is considered of childbearing potential unless she is postmenopausal, has had a uterus and/or both ovaries removed, or has had a bilateral tubal ligation).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bimatoprost 0.03% in people with Cataract, run by Indiana University at 4 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Oct 2007. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Bimatoprost free acid in human aqueous. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00355446, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 17 Oct 2007.
