Filter by:Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness among seniors in Canada. It is often associated with an elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), but its exact mechanism is still largely unknown. Some studies have shown a link between glaucoma and changes in the amount of oxygen in the veins of the eye. The study aims to compare the amount of oxygen in ocular veins among three different groups using a spectrophotometer. This instrument is linked to a camera and can measure the quantity of oxygen in the veins using different characteristics of the blood inside. The groups of the study are: patients without glaucoma, patients suspected of glaucoma and patients newly diagnosed with glaucoma. The drug the investigators are using, Travoprost 0.004%, will only be administered to the groups suspected or diagnosed with glaucoma. Travoprost 0.004% is already approved for use in Quebec and is part of standard care. Ten patients will be recruited into each group for a total of 30 patients in this study. All patients for the suspected or diagnosed groups will be recruited from the Jewish General Hospital. Subsequently all testing will be done at the École d'optométrie, Université de Montréal
This clinical investigation is being performed to compare the effect of BOL-303259-X dosed once daily (QD) with timolol maleate 0.5% dosed twice daily (BID) in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) measured over a 24-hour period in subjects with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT).
A double-masked, parallel study of AR-12286 Ophthalmic Solution 0.5%, or 0.7% (q.d., PM) or timolol maleate Ophthalmic Solution, 0.5% (b.i.d.), O.U. for 3 months.
The objective of this dose-escalation study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AMA0076 in reduction of intraocular pressure in subjects with ocular hypertension or primary open-angle glaucoma.
The purpose of this study is to determine the intraocular Pressure (IOP) lowering response and evaluate the safety of brimonidine tartrate 0.025% ophthalmic solution in adult subjects with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 3 planned doses of ONO-9054 in the eyes of adult male and female patients with ocular hypertension (OHT) or mild open angle-glaucoma (OAG). The secondary objectives are to evaluate Pharmacodynamics (PD) and to characterize the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of ONO-9054 and its metabolite in plasma and to compare its tolerability following morning and evening dosing.
This single-site, dose-escalation study will evaluate safety and tolerability of increasing concentrations of ATS907 in 12 subjects with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma and/or Ocular Hypertension
An observational study comparing changing from an IOP-lowering treatment to a bimatoprost-containing IOP treatment in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT). Visits and treatment are per normal clinical practice.
The primary objectives of the study are: 1. To compare the proportion of patients who achieve a successful response to treatment (reduction in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) of >15%) between patients treated with laser surgery (including argon laser trabeculectomy, and selective laser trabeculoplasty) with patients receiving additional medications, at 1-year post-treatment initiation. 2. To compare the proportion of patients who achieve a successful response to treatment (reduction in IOP of >15%) between patients treated with other procedures (including incisional surgery, drainage device procedures, and other glaucoma procedures) with patients receiving additional medications, at 1-year-post-treatment initiation. The study is a prospective, observational cohort study and will not provide or recommend any treatment. Patients who have failed initial medical therapy with two glaucoma medications will be identified and enrolled at the time of scheduling of a laser surgery procedure or other procedure such as incisional surgery or drainage device, or initiation of an additional course of therapy with medication as determined by their physician. This inception cohort of new initiators of laser surgical treatment, other procedures, or additional medical therapy will be followed for 12 months. All decisions regarding treatment are solely at the discretion of the physician in accordance with their usual practice. Enrollment is expected to begin in February 2011 and continue through 12 months of follow-up after enrollment targets have been reached.
