About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Single Center, Masked, Crossover Study Comparing the Effects of Latanoprostene Bunod and Timolol on Retinal Blood Vessel Density and Visual Acuity in Patients With Ocular Hypertension or Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

The purpose of this research study is to compare the effect of Latanoprostene Bunod and Timolol on eye pressure and blood vessels of the back of the eye.

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this clinical investigation is to compare the difference in change in retinal blood vessel density (peripapillary and macular) between latanoprostene bunod (LBN) ophthalmic solution 0.024% dosed once daily (QD) and timolol maleate 0.5% dosed twice daily (BID) in subjects with OAG or OHT and in normal subjects.

Primary Efficacy Endpoint The primary efficacy endpoint for this study is the change in retinal blood vessel density (peripapillary and macular) between treatment groups after 4 weeks of treatment (Visit 4 [Week 5] and Visit 6 [Week 11]).

Secondary Efficacy Endpoints The secondary efficacy endpoint for this study is change in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA).

Safety Endpoints The safety endpoint for this study is the incidence of ocular and systemic adverse events (AEs).

Being tested
Latanoprostene bunod 0.024% QD, Timolol maleate 0.5% BID
Medical subject headings
Glaucoma, Open-Angle, Ocular Hypertension

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Latanoprostene bunod 0.024% QD and Timolol maleate 0.5% BID in people with OAG - Open-Angle Glaucoma and OHT - Ocular Hypertension, run by University of California, San Diego at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 26 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 29 Aug 2023. 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 United States. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

retinal blood vessel density (peripapillary and macular) (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 11 to 19 weeks). 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 29 Aug 2023.
