About this study
Official title: Early Feasibility Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of a New Timolol Sustained-Release Intraocular Implant (TimoD) in Participants With Open-Angle Glaucoma (OAG) or Ocular Hypertension (OHT) Undergoing Cataract Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a new method to deliver an approved medicine called Timolol in the eye of participants with glaucoma or ocular hypertension and requiring cataract surgery.
The study is conducted in two stages. The first stage (Stage 1/Phase 1) is intended to study the safety of 3 different doses of the study medication (called TimoD implant). The second stage (Stage 2/Phase 2) of the study is intended to study in greater detail the efficacy and safety of the 3 doses of the TimoD implant in comparison to a standard approved medication, timolol eye drops for 3 years.
Read the detailed description
Timolol will be administered using an investigational drug product called the TimoD implant.
The implant will be placed in one eye (the study eye) using an instrument called an injector system (an investigational device). The implant procedure will be performed during cataract surgery.
Stage 1: Three dose levels of the TimoD implant (low, intermediate, and high) will be evaluated in three groups of six participants each. Participants will be assigned sequentially to a treatment group and will receive a single implant containing one of the three dose levels. Participants in Stage 1 will be followed for 1 year.
Stage 2: The same three dose levels of the TimoD implant will be evaluated further. In addition, a fourth treatment group receiving an approved control treatment (timolol eye drops) will be included. Six participants will be randomized to each treatment group. Participants in Stage 2 will be followed for 3 years.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
TimoD implantDrug
Also called intraocular implant releasing timolol, investigational drug
Consists of 1 TimoD implant administration in the study eye.
Injector systemDevice
Also called ACCUJECT™ 2.2.-BL, Investigational device
This is a CE-marked injector intended for intraocular lens (IOL) delivery. In this study, the injector is used as an"intraocular implant injection system" outside of its scope of intended use.
Timolol eye drops 0.5%Drug
Timolol eye drops will be self-admnistered twice daily in the study eye approximately 12 hours apart throughout the study

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing TimoD implant, Injector system and Timolol eye drops 0.5% in people with Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension, run by EyeD Pharma 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 4 inclusion and 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2026. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact EyeD Pharma (+3242299000, dpo@eyedpharma.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Stage 1: Number (%) of participants experiencing adverse events (time frame: From Screening (up to Day -41) to end of stage 1 (Month 13)). The study lists 4 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 30 Jul 2026.
