About this study

Official title: A 12- Week Investigator Masked, Parallel Comparison of Tolerability of Combigan and Cosopt in the Treatment of Open Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension

The objective of this research study is to compare the tolerability and effectiveness of Combigan(brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate) and Cosopt (dorzolamide hydrochloride)in the treatment of open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Read the detailed description

Patients between the ages of 40 to 90 years of age, that have been diagnosed with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension,including pseudo-exfoliation and pigmentary glaucoma with definitive glaucomatous optic disk cupping and/or glaucomatous visual field loss, who have been receiving a stable treatment regime for at least 4 weeks prior to the study initiation, with a Cosopt mono or a Prostaglandin + Cosopt combination are to be included in the study.Patients must have an IOP between 16 and 32 mmHg, with no readings above 35 mmHg at baseline.

Patients with any other form of glaucoma other than primary open angle glaucoma, with a gonioscopy measured angle grade of less than 2, with a visual field defect not of glaucomatous origen and previous cyclodestructive procedures will be excluded.The use of ocular non steroidal and anti-inflammatory topical agents which inhibit cyclooxygenase and prostaglandin analog synthesis,the use of glucocorticoid therapy, and hypersensitivity to any of the study components also precludes involvement in the study. Any ocular laser therapy within the past three months, ocular inflammation or infection in the past three months or any history of trauma in the last six months will also exclude enrollment in the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Open Angle Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by DBYAN Medicine Professional Corporation at 1 site in Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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 25 Feb 2013. 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 Canada. 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.

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?

Comparison of the tolerability and effectiveness of Combigan and Cosopt in the treatment of open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 25 Feb 2013.
