About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study Investigating the Relationship Between SENSIMED Triggerfish® Ocular Dimensional Profiles and Disease Progression in Patients With Open Angle Glaucoma

Baseline 24-hour SENSIMED Triggerfish (TF) recordings as well as functional and structural vision tests measured prospectively every 3 months over a 2-year period, will be used to model TF's ability to serve as a risk factor for individual progression rates.

Read the detailed description

Glaucoma subjects will be selected based on scheduled appointments (consecutive selection) and clinic records such as patient databases (convenience selection) and invited to participate in the study. After having signed and dated the informed consent form, they will receive an appointment for a screening visit, during which they will undergo an ophthalmic examination and review of their medical and ophthalmic history as well as prior and current treatments. The eye at higher risk of disease progression will be selected for the study if both eyes are eligible.

On study day 0 (SD0), subjects will receive TF for a 24-hour recording of the profile of ocular dimensional changes, starting between 11 am and 3 pm, with simultaneous recording of 24-hour blood pressure (BP). The recordings will be carried out in ambulatory conditions with the subjects pursuing as close to normal daily activities as possible. Subject activities will be captured in a logbook. After completion of the recording, subjects will receive an ophthalmic exam to exclude or adequately address any side effects and provide the logbook to the investigator.

At 3-month intervals following the TF recording until 2 years after the TF recording, follow-up visits will be scheduled for assessment of the visual field (VF), the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness by optical coherence tomography (OCT), optic disc photo and intraocular pressure (IOP). 24-hour TF recording (starting at the same time as on SD0) will be performed at 1 and 2 years and, if glaucoma subjects undergo a glaucoma surgery in the follow-up period, an additional 24-hour TF profile will be recorded approximately 3 months after the intervention (again starting at the same time as on SD0).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SENSIMED Triggerfish in people with Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Sensimed AG.

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 21 inclusion and 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2025. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) for a SENSIMED Triggerfish based model for the prediction of visual field annual progression rate (24-2 SITA Standard) measured as Mean Deviation (MD) slope (time frame: 2 years). 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 15 May 2025.
