Bimatoprost Ocular Insert Compared to Topical Timolol Solution in Patients With Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension

March 22, 2018 updated by: ForSight Vision5, Inc.

A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Subject- and Examiner-masked, Controlled Clinical Trial Designed to Evaluate the Safety and Effectiveness of the Bimatoprost Ocular Insert as Compared to Topical Timolol Solution (0.5%) in Patients With Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension.

The objective of this Phase 2 study is to evaluate whether the Bimatoprost Ocular Insert is non-inferior to that of timolol ophthalmic solution (0.5%) at 12 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 2
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0) to Week 2
IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Diurnal IOP measurements were taken at 8 am (time (T)=0 hour), 10 am (T=2 hour), and 4 pm (T=8 hour) at Week 2. IOP readings from both eyes were averaged to compute a single IOP value for each diurnal timepoint. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 2
Change From Baseline in Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 6
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0) to Week 6
IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Diurnal IOP measurements were taken at 8 am (T=0 hour), 10 am (T=2 hour), and 4 pm (T=8 hour) at Week 6. IOP readings from both eyes were averaged to compute a single IOP value for each diurnal timepoint. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 6
Change From Baseline in Intra-Ocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 12
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12
IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Diurnal IOP measurements were taken at 8 am (T=0 hour), 10 am (T=2 hour), and 4 pm (T=8 hour) at Week 12. IOP readings from both eyes were averaged to compute a single IOP value for each diurnal timepoint. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in IOP at Month 4
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1) to Month 4
IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Diurnal IOP measurements were taken at 8 am (T=0 hour), 10 am (T=2 hour), and 4 pm (T=8 hour) at Month 4. IOP readings from both eyes were averaged to compute a single IOP value for each diurnal timepoint. A negative change from Baseline indicated improvement.
Baseline (Day 1) to Month 4
Change From Baseline in IOP at Month 5
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 0) to Month 5
