What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Mean Peak Macroscopic Conjunctival Hyperemia at Month 1

    Change from Baseline in macroscopic conjunctival hyperemia (or visible eye redness). Macroscopic conjunctival hyperemia is graded by the investigator who compares the patient's visual appearance of eye redness to standard photographs using a 5-point scale (Scale 0 to +3: none, trace, mild, moderate, severe). The peak change is calculated for each eye by subtracting the largest score across the hourly measurements at baseline from the largest score across the hourly measurements at month 1. A positive number severity grade change from baseline indicated an increase in redness.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 1

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Percentage of Patients With an Increase in Macroscopic Conjunctival Hyperemia in Either Eye at Month 1

    Percentage of patients with a >= 1 unit increase in macroscopic conjunctival hyperemia in either eye at the Month 1, 8 AM time point. Macroscopic conjunctival hyperemia is graded by the investigator who compares the patient's visual appearance of eye redness to standard photographs using a 5-point scale (Scale 0 to +3: none, trace, mild, moderate, severe).

    Measured: Month 1

  2. Change From Baseline in Mean Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Month 1

    Change from baseline in mean (average) IOP at Month 1 8 AM timepoint. IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. For each eye, the IOP was either the average of the 2 measurements, or, if a third measurement was required, the median of the 3 measurements. A negative number change from Baseline indicated a reduction in IOP.

    Measured: Baseline, Month 1

  3. Percentage of Physicians Who Were Very or Extremely Willing to Continue Patient on Drug, if Drug Were Marketed at Month 1

    Percentage of physicians who were very or extremely willing to continue patient on drug if drug were marketed based on their reported response to the question. Physicians were asked "Overall, based on how well this drug lowered THIS patient's IOP, balanced with any adverse events she/he may have experienced, would you consider continuing THIS medication (if the drug was marketed)?". The responses were extremely willing, very willing, somewhat willing and not willing. If not willing, physician was asked for reason.

    Measured: Month 1

  4. Percentage of Patients Who Were Very or Extremely Willing to Use This Glaucoma Medication at Month 1

    Percentage of patients who were very or extremely willing to continue to use this glaucoma medication based on their reported response to the question. Patients were asked "Overall, based on how well this drug lowered your IOP, your concern about the preservation of your vision, balanced with any side effects you may have experienced using your medication, would you be willing to continue this medication (eye drops) if your physician prescribed it?". The responses were extremely willing, very willing, somewhat willing and not willing. If not willing, patient was asked for reason.

    Measured: Month 1

  5. Percentage of Patients Who Reported No Change in the Appearance of Their Eyes Since the Beginning of the Study at Month 1

    Percentage of patients who reported no change in the appearance of their eyes since the beginning of the study. Patients were asked "Are you experiencing a change in how your eye looks now since you began your current glaucoma medication?". The responses were yes or no. If yes, patient was asked for primary reason and if better, worse or as expected based on what the doctor's office told them to expect.

    Measured: Month 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing bimatoprost eye drops in people with Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by Allergan at 1 site 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 23 Apr 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Oct 2011). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change From Baseline in Mean Peak Macroscopic Conjunctival Hyperemia at Month 1 (time frame: Baseline, Month 1). 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 NCT00538304, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 Apr 2019.
