About this study

Official title: MIGS VS SLT in Glaucoma Patients: Prospective Study

To compare the intraocular pressure (IOP) and number of glaucoma medications lowering of microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) with the implantation of the trabecular device Hydrus (Ivantis) as a solo procedure and 360° selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) to treat primary open angle glaucoma (POAG).

Read the detailed description

Eligible study patients diagnosed with POAG and not sufficiently controlled by, intolerant of, or non-compliant with their current IOP-lowering regimen. Patients with IOP>21 mm Hg upon at least two consecutive measurements. Study subjects with typical glaucomatous visual field (VF) loss on Octopus or Humphrey automated perimetry (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA) and glaucomatous alterations to the optic nerve head. Visual field classified as glaucomatous according to the European Glaucoma Society guidelines.

Exclusion criteria : eye surgery in the previous 6 months, any previous surgery for glaucoma, evidence of glaucoma of a type other than POAG, and medication with systemic or topical steroids.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MIGS Hydrus IvantisDevice

    implant of the micro stent in the nasal Schlemm's canal

  • 360 degrees SLTProcedure or surgery

    Laser Solutis SLT laser (Quantel Medical, Clermont-Ferrand, France): this frequency-doubled, Q-switched Nd:YAG laser emits light at a wavelength of 532 nm, with a pulse duration of 4 ns, a spot size of 400 µm and pulse energy ranging from 0.2 to 2 mJ

    Measured: up to 12 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. change in the number of glaucoma medications compared to baseline

    accountability of IOP lowering medications used by the patient

    Measured: up to 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing MIGS Hydrus Ivantis and 360 degrees SLT in people with Glaucoma, run by University of Turin, Italy at 1 site in Italy.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2015. 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 Italy. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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?

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?

change in the intraocular pressure compared to baseline (time frame: up to 12 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 NCT02512133, 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 30 Jul 2015.
