There are about 2631 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Puerto Rico. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
A prospective, parallel-group, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled clinical study will be conducted with an estimated 72 participants. The objective of this study is to determine if Mirtogenol has an additive effect on the reduction of intraocular pressure when combined with bimatoprost in the Hispanic population with primary open angle glaucoma. Baseline clinical data will be collected for each participant and they will be randomized 1:1 to a treatment group (bimatoprost 0.01% and Mirtogenol) or control group (bimatoprost 0.01% and placebo). Efficacy and safety of Mirtogenol will be measured during the 24 week study. Participants will be evaluated in five visits: screening and baseline, week 4, week 8, week 12 and week 24. The tests that will be performed include visual acuity, visual field evaluation, applanation tonometry, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and pachymetry. Side effects or adverse effects will be reported and evaluated by the ophthalmologist at each visit to access the safety of Mirtogenol. The primary efficacy endpoint of intraocular pressure (IOP) will be compared using a t-test and will have an 80% probability to detect a difference between treatments at a 0.05 significance level.
This research study will explore the safety and efficacy of the drug, pirfenidone, in patients with a diagnosis of Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS) who have an associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) over a planned period of 56 weeks.
