About this study

Official title: Safety and Efficacy of Using the Travoprost/Timolol Fixed Combination (DuoTrav®) in Patients With Open-Angle Glaucoma or Uncontrolled Ocular Hypertension by Beta-blocker Monotherapy (Timolol 0.5%)

The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of changing to DuoTrav® from prior timolol 0.5% monotherapy in participants with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Change at the Final Visit From Baseline (Prior Beta-blocker Monotherapy)

    As measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry. High IOP (outside the normal range) can be a risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates a greater amount of improvement.

    Measured: Baseline, up to 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Travoprost 0.004%/timolol maleate 0.5% fixed combination in people with Glaucoma, run by Alcon Research 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 6 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 8 Jul 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Jul 2013). 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?

Mean Intraocular Pressure (IOP) Change at the Final Visit From Baseline (Prior Beta-blocker Monotherapy) (time frame: Baseline, up to 6 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 8 Jul 2013.
