About this study

Official title: Pressure Reduction and Medication Use Following Different Minimally Invasive Glaucoma Surgery Procedures, Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial of Efficacy

The primary objective of this research is to compare the efficacy of trabecular minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) devices (iStent vs iStent Inject vs Hydrus) for intra ocular pressure (IOP) and anti-glaucoma medication reduction in open angle glaucoma.

Read the detailed description

Study Design Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial (Parallel Group Study)

Patients who fit inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to one of the 3 parallel groups (one of the study surgical interventions combined with phacoemulsification) in the following order:

  1. 1st Generation iStent, Trabecular Micro-Bypass Device (Glaukos Inc, San Clemente, CA).
  2. 2nd Generation iStent, Trabecular Micro-Bypass Device (Glaukos Inc, San Clemente, CA).
  3. Hydrus Microstent (Ivantis Inc, Irvine, CA). Blocked randomization will be used in 1:1:1 ratio to provide balanced study groups. Allocation will be performed using a random number table.

Preoperative Evaluation of : Visual acuity, Slit lamp examination, IOP, Gonioscopy, Fundus Examination, Central corneal thickness (CCT), Endothelial Cell Count (ECC), Visual field, Retinal Nerve Fiber layer (RNFL) thickness by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Number and type of preoperative antiglaucoma medications.

Patients will be followed postoperatively at Day 1, Week 1, Months 1, 3, 6 and 12.

Medication Washout will be done at baseline, Months 6 and 12 to evaluate non-medicated IOP.

The duration of washout will be:

4 Weeks for Prostaglandin Analogues (PGA) and Beta Blockers (BB). 2 Weeks for Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors (CAI) and Alpha Agonists (AA).

The IOP measurements in the wash out visits:

will be performed according to 2-operator method to provide masking as described in Ocular Hypertension Treatment Study (OHTS) and Glaucoma World Association Guidelines.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Glaucoma and Cataract SurgeryProcedure or surgery

    Patients requiring combined cataract and glaucoma surgery will be randomized to either iStent, iStent Inject or Hydrus (to lower intraocular pressure) combined with Phacoemulsification (to remove cataract and insert intraocular lens) Eye Surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Intraocular Pressure (IOP)

    Reduction of IOP after eye surgery measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg)

    Measured: 1 hour examination at Baseline, Day 1, Week 1, Months 1, 3, 6 and 12

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Visual Acuity

    Change in visual acuity after eye surgery measured in minimal angle of resolution (logMAR).

    Measured: 1 hour examination at Baseline, Day 1, Week 1, Months 1, 3, 6 and 12

  2. Central Corneal Thickness (CCT)

    Change in CCT after eye surgery measured in microns using pachymeter.

    Measured: 1 hour examination at Baseline, Months 3, 6 and 12

  3. Endothelial Cell Count

    Change in endothelial cell count after eye surgery measured in number of cells by millimeter square using specular microscopy.

    Measured: 1 hour examination at Baseline, Months 3, 6 and 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Glaucoma and Cataract Surgery in people with Open Angle Glaucoma and Primary Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Wills Eye 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 9 inclusion and 11 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 21 Feb 2021. 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 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?

Intraocular Pressure (IOP) (time frame: 1 hour examination at Baseline, Day 1, Week 1, Months 1, 3, 6 and 12). 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 21 Feb 2021.
