Clinical Trial Summary

Qlaris' Phase 2 clinical trial investigating the safety, tolerability, and ocular hypotensive efficacy of QLS-111 in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension patients.

Description:

A randomized, active- and vehicle-controlled, multi-site, double-masked study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of QLS-111 versus vehicle in subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Primary objective is to evaluate the ocular and systemic safety and tolerability of 3 concentrations of QLS-111 compared to vehicle control. Secondary objective is to evaluate the ocular hypotensive efficacy of 3 concentrations of QLS-111 with once daily morning (QAM), once daily evening (QPM), and twice daily (BID) dosing versus vehicle with QAM, QPM, and BID dosing.

QLS-111 ophthalmic solution, (0.03%) applied QAM OU for 7 days followed by QPM dosing OU for 7 days, and BID OU dosing for 7 days to constitute a 21-day study treatment period. All IP for this study will be supplied masked in PF single use vials.
• Experimental: QLS-111 ophthalmic solution, (0.075%)
QLS-111 ophthalmic solution, (0.075%) applied QAM OU for 7 days followed by QPM dosing OU for 7 days, and BID OU dosing for 7 days to constitute a 21-day study treatment period. All IP for this study will be supplied masked in PF single use vials.

Other:
• QLS-111 ophthalmic vehicle solution
Vehicle ophthalmic solution applied QAM OU for 7 days followed by QPM dosing OU for 7 days, and BID OU dosing for 7 days to constitute a 21-day study treatment period. All IP for this study will be supplied masked in PF single use vials.
