About this study

Official title: IOP and Tolerability Study of Preserved Bimatoprost 0.1% or Tafluprost Unit Dose Preservative Free 15microgram/ml, in Patients With OHT or Glaucoma Suitable for Prostaglandin Therapy

This cross-over study will investigate the efficacy and safety of BIMMD and TUDPF in a clinical setting.

Read the detailed description
  • A prospective, randomized, investigator-masked, crossover comparison;
  • Ocular hypertension or glaucoma (XFG or POAG) patients and who consent to participate will be enrolled in this study
  • Patients will be scheduled for a screening visit IOP assessment (IOP measurements at 08:30, 12:30 and 16:30 (±1 hour).
  • Patients who are on therapy at the screening visit and who consent to participate will undergo a washout period for 4 weeks (depending on therapy) before the baseline visit;
  • Patient can under the washout period be given brinzolamide (Azopt) if needed, Azopt should then be discontinued 5 days before baseline visit;
  • After the screening visit (and after wash-outperiod for treated patients) patients will be scheduled to undergo a baseline visit IOP assessment (IOP measurements at 08:30, 12:30 and 16:30 (± 1 hour with a minimum of 3 hours between readings) and will then be randomized for Period 1 to receive either BIMMD drops once in the evening (20:30) or TUDPF drops once in the evening (20:30) for 3 month
  • After 3 month, patients will be switched for Period 2, to the opposite treatment (e.g. switched to either BIMMD or TUDPF) to be dosed in the evening;
  • After another 3 months they will undergo the final evaluation of IOP levels and of tolerability;
  • Intermediate safety visits may be scheduled at the discretion of the investigator.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Preserved Bimatoprost 0.01% and Tafluprost Unit Dose Preservative Free 15microgram/ml in people with Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 7 sites in 5 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 3 inclusion and 17 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2016. 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, United Kingdom, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ingeborg Stalmans, Phd (003216332372, ingeborg.stalmans@uzleuven.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the difference in mean IOP values between the 2 groups (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02471105, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 May 2016.
