Trial summary

Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is associated with inadequate drainage of the aqueous humor via the trabecular meshwork through the Schlemm's canal towards the systemic circulation. This may lead to an increase in IOP and may damage the optic nerve. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Open Label Study to Assess the 24-hour Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation Profile Recorded With SENSIMED Triggerfish® in Patients With Primary Open Angle Glaucoma Before and After Deep Sclerectomy

Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is associated with inadequate drainage of the aqueous humor via the trabecular meshwork through the Schlemm's canal towards the systemic circulation. This may lead to an increase in IOP and may damage the optic nerve. The purpose of glaucoma management is to lower IOP in order to prevent progression of the optic neuropathy and subsequent visual loss. Firstline treatment usually includes IOP-lowering drug therapy. However, if IOP remains uncontrolled and/or the optic nerve damage progresses despite controlled IOP, surgery may be indicated. Deep sclerectomy (DS) is a non-penetrating surgical procedure for the treatment of open angle glaucoma that allows the enhancement of the aqueous outflow by removing part of the inner wall of Schlemm's canal and trabecular meshwork. DS was shown to achieve a good control on IOP over the long term.

The purpose of this study is to assess the 24-hour IOP fluctuation profile recorded with Triggerfish in patients with POAG before and after DS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of DS on IOP fluctuation profile as recorded by Triggerfish in patients with POAG.

    The IOP fluctuation profile will be recorded by Triggerfish in patient with POAG

    • Before DS
    • 3 months after DS

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. effect of DS on the diurnal and nocturnal IOP fluctuation pattern

    Diurnal and nocturnal IOP fluctuation pattern The wake/sleep and sleep/wake Triggerfish slopes Timing of Triggerfish acrophase

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Changes in visual field up to 6 months after DS

    Change in the visual field

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Safety and Tolerability

    Adverse events and serious adverse events will be collected throughout the duration of the study

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sensimed Triggerfish in people with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Sensimed AG at 1 site in France.

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 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2014. 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 France. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Effect of DS on IOP fluctuation profile as recorded by Triggerfish in patients with POAG. (time frame: 3 months). 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 13 May 2014.
