About this study

Official title: 24-hr Intraocular Pressure Control With Brinzolamide 1% / Brimonidine 0.2% Ophthalmic Suspension vs Vehicle

The purpose of this study is to evaluate differences between treatments in mean change from baseline in 24-hr intraocular pressure (IOP) at Week 4.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will undergo washout of pre-study IOP-lowering medications for the appropriate duration, then undergo 2 eligibility visits. Eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1, to receive masked SIMBRINZA ® or Vehicle for 4 weeks. Two 24-hour visits will be conducted (Day 0 and Week 4) during which intraocular pressure will be collected every 2 hours. The expected duration of subject participation in the study is 10 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in 24-hr Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 4

    IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Daytime IOP at Week 4

    IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in mmHg. Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point (8 AM through 8 PM) and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4

  2. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Nocturnal IOP at Week 4

    IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in mmHg. Change was calculated by taking the change from baseline at each time point (10 PM through 6 AM) and averaging the available changes. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4

  3. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in IOP for Each Time Point (8 AM Through 6 AM) at Week 4

    IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured in mmHg. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates greater improvement. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Brinzolamide 1%/brimonidine 0.2% tartrate ophthalmic suspension in people with Glaucoma, run by Alcon Research.

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 4 inclusion and 6 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 2 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 Jan 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?

Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in 24-hr Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 4 (time frame: Baseline (Day 0), Week 4). 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 2 Jul 2018.
