About this study

Official title: Intraocular Pressure and Tolerability Study of Preservative Free Bimatoprost 0.03% Unit Dose (BUDPF) or Preservative Free Latanoprost 0.005% Unit Dose (LUDPF) (Monoprost®) in Patients With Ocular Hypertension or Glaucoma: A Randomized, Single Masked, 3 Month Cross-over, Investigator Led, European Multicentre Trial (SPORT)

Bimatoprost 0.03% preservative free monodose eye drops solution (BUDPF) is a new product composed of a synthetic prostamide, bimatoprost 0.3% in a preservative free formulation. This new product is used as a once-daily topical ocular therapy for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma, or ocular hypertension, and that are sensitive to preservatives. The individual active component of BUDPF, bimatoprost is an established therapeutic agent with well documented IOP efficacy (1). Prostamides, such as bimatoprost, are believed to lower IOP mainly by increasing uveoscleral outflow. The comparator, Preservative Free Latanoprost 0.005% Unit Dose (LUDPF, eg. Monoprost®), was recently launched in a number of countries in Europe and contains latanoprost in a new preservative free formulation.

It is clinically important to compare these newly entered preservative free products with respect to tolerability and efficacy. A better tolerability combined with maximum efficacy will reduce the burden of daily glaucoma therapy and provide a clear therapeutic benefit to the glaucoma patient by providing enhanced compliance and real-world IOP-lowering efficacy.

The hypothesis of the study is that monodose bimatoprost is more effective than monodose latanoprost by at least 1 mmHg.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Preservative-free latanoprost and Preservative-free bimatoprost in people with Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by Association for Innovation and Biomedical Research on Light and Image at 7 sites in 6 countries.

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 1 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 29 Oct 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites in Italy, Austria, Belgium, Portugal, Switzerland and 1 more country. 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?

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?

Difference in mean IOP values between the 2 groups at 6 months (time frame: 6 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 29 Oct 2015.
