What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Treatment-Naive Patients With Ocular Hyperemia

    Hyperemia is engorgement of the blood vessels (redness) of the bulbar conjunctiva of the eye (the clear membrane covering the white surface of the eye). Hyperemia is graded on a 5 point scale where 0=none (normal), 0.5=trace (trace flush reddish pink), 1=Mild (mild flush reddish color), 2=Moderate (bright red color) and 3=severe (deep bright diffuse redness). Naive patients did not use glaucoma medication prior to study entry.

    Measured: Week 12

  2. Percentage of Previously Treated (Switched) Patients With Ocular Hyperemia

    Hyperemia is engorgement of the blood vessels (redness) of the bulbar conjunctiva of the eye (the clear membrane covering the white surface of the eye). Hyperemia is graded on a 5 point scale where 0=none (normal), 0.5=trace (trace flush reddish pink), 1=Mild (mild flush reddish color), 2=Moderate (bright red color) and 3=severe (deep bright diffuse redness). Previously treated patients used glaucoma medication prior to study entry and were switched from their previous therapy to study treatment.

    Measured: Week 12

  3. Percentage of Patients Treated With Adjunctive Therapy With Ocular Hyperemia

    Hyperemia is engorgement of the blood vessels (redness) of the bulbar conjunctiva of the eye (the clear membrane covering the white surface of the eye). Hyperemia is graded on a 5 point scale where 0=none (normal), 0.5=trace (trace flush reddish pink), 1=Mild (mild flush reddish color), 2=Moderate (bright red color) and 3=severe (deep bright diffuse redness). Previously treated patients used glaucoma medication prior to study entry and added study treatment as adjunctive therapy.

    Measured: Week 12

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Percent Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in the Study Eye of Treatment-Naive Patients

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Naive patients did not use glaucoma medication prior to study entry. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, 12 Weeks

  2. Percent Change From Baseline in IOP in the Study Eye of Previously Treated (Switched) Patients

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Previously treated patients used glaucoma medication prior to study entry and were switched from their previous therapy to study treatment. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, 12 Weeks

  3. Percent Change From Baseline in IOP in the Study Eye of Patients Treated With Adjunctive Therapy

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Previously treated patients used glaucoma medication prior to study entry and added study treatment as adjunctive therapy. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, 12 Weeks

  4. Change From Baseline in IOP in the Study Eye of Treatment-Naive Patients

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 6, Week 12

  5. Change From Baseline in IOP in the Study Eye of Previously Treated (Switched) Patients

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 6, Week 12

  6. Change From Baseline in IOP in the Study Eye of Patients Treated With Adjunctive Therapy

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. A negative number change from baseline indicates a reduction in IOP (improvement), and a positive number change from baseline indicates an increase (worsening).

    Measured: Baseline, Week 6, Week 12

  7. Percentage of Patients Discontinuing Due to Ocular Adverse Events

    Ocular adverse events are defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient's eye(s) during study participation, regardless of relationship to treatment.

    Measured: 12 Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Bimatoprost 0.01% in people with Glaucoma, Primary Open Angle and Ocular Hypertension, run by Allergan 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 2 inclusion and 1 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 26 Sep 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.

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 26 Sep 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?

Percentage of Treatment-Naive Patients With Ocular Hyperemia (time frame: Week 12). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 26 Sep 2013.
