Randomized, controlled treatment with an intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4mg) insert following cataract surgery with intraocular lens implant (IOL) combined with minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS), specifically iStent, iStent inject or KDB in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHTN)

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

To determine treatment and patient reported outcomes, following cataract surgery with intraocular lens implant in conjunction with minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) more specifically iStent, iStent inject or KDB with an intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4 mg) insert, inserted four days (+/- 1 day) prior to surgery as compared to insertion on day of surgery. Patients with either primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (OHTN) requiring cataract surgery with IOL implant, will be separated into two groups.

Group 1: intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4 mg) insertion four days (+/- 1 day) prior to cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implant and MIGS (iStent, iStent inject or KDB) insertion. (Patient to use antibiotic three days prior to surgery) Group 2: intracanalicular dexamethasone (0.4 mg) insertion on the day of cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implant and MIGS (iStent, iStent inject or KDB) insertion. (Patient to use antibiotic three days prior to surgery)

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Intracanalicular Dexamethasone, 0.4 mg insert four days (+/- 1 day) prior to surgery
Time Frame: four days (+/- 1 day) prior to surgery with visits scheduled at day 1, day 7, day 14, day 30, and day 45.

Primary: Will receive the insert four days (+/- 1 day) prior to surgery. Each enrolled subject will be required to complete seven scheduled visits over the course of the study period: Baseline, insertion visit, operative visit, Day 1, 7, 30, and a 14 & 45-day phone call.

Absence of cells in anterior chamber at day 7 as measured by: Summed Ocular Inflammation Score (0-4) Absence of cell to be defined as a grade of (0-0.5) Absence of pain at Day 7 (score of 0) as measured by ocular pain assessment numerical grading scale 0-10 Mean change in BCVA from baseline (Day 7,30) Mean change in OCT from baseline (Day 30) Physician ease of intracanalicular insertion evaluation as measured by physician questionnaire Incidence and severity of ocular and systemic AE's (Day 1,7,14,30,45)
four days (+/- 1 day) prior to surgery with visits scheduled at day 1, day 7, day 14, day 30, and day 45.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Intracanalicular Dexamethasone, 0.4 mg insertion on day of surgery.
Time Frame: insertion on day of surgery with scheduled visits on day 1, day 7, day 14, day 30, and day 45.

Secondary: Will receive the insert on the day of surgery. Each enrolled study subject will be required to complete six scheduled visits over the course of the study period: Screening visit, operative/insertion visit, Day 1, 7, 30, and a 14 & 45 day phone call.
