What is being measured

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

  1. Intraocular Pressure (IOP) on Day 8

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour). The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 8

  2. IOP on Day 16

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour). The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 16

  3. IOP on Day 28

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour). The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 28

  4. IOP on Day 49

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour). The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 49

  5. IOP on Day 70

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour). The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 70

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants With Ocular and Non-Ocular Adverse Events

    An adverse event is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with the treatment. An adverse event can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a pharmaceutical product, whether or not considered related to the pharmaceutical product. Preexisting conditions which worsen during a study are also considered as adverse events. Reported here is the number of participants with adverse events related to the eye as well as number of participants with all other adverse events.

    Measured: From Randomization (Day 0) to Day 70

  2. IOP During Open Label Period

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured at the following three time points: 8 am (T=0 hour), 12 pm (T=4 hour) and 4 pm (T=8 hour) at the start (Day 98) and end (Day 112) of the Open Label Period during which participants were treated with timolol 0.5% ophthalmic solution twice daily. The IOP measured in the two eyes was averaged to compute a single IOP value for each timepoint.

    Measured: Day 98, Day 112

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Fixed Combination, Bimatoprost and Timolol in people with Open-Angle Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by ForSight Vision5, Inc. at 1 site in Panama.

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 9 inclusion and 15 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 25 Feb 2019. 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 Panama. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 31 Dec 2018). 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?

Intraocular Pressure (IOP) on Day 8 (time frame: Day 8). The study lists 5 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 25 Feb 2019.
