[Trial of device that is not approved or cleared by the U.S. FDA] (FRONTIER)

February 5, 2024 updated by: [Redacted]
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Hydrus Microstent for lowering intraocular pressure in pseudophakic patients with open-angle glaucoma for whom intraocular pressure (IOP) is not adequately controlled on topical hypotensive medications. This study will enroll subjects with prior uncomplicated cataract surgery and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Qualified subjects will undergo ocular hypotensive medication washout prior to implantation with the Hydrus Microstent. Following implantation on Day 0, subjects will attend 8 scheduled postoperative visits: Day 1, Week 1, Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, Month 12, Month 18, and Month 24.

This study was initiated by Ivantis, Inc. Ivantis was acquired by Alcon Research, and Alcon assumed sponsorship of the study in November 2022.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of subjects with an unmedicated diurnal interocular pressure (DIOP) of >6 mmHg and ≤21 mmHg with a reduction of ≥20% vs. baseline in the absence of secondary glaucoma surgery or loss of light perception (12-month responder rate)
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 12 postoperative
IOP will be measured at three timepoints during the day (8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 4:00 PM) using Goldmann tonometry. Each time IOP is measured, two measurements will be taken unless they differ by more than 2 mmHg, in which case a third measurement will be taken. The mean of two measurements (or the median value in the case of three IOP measurements) will be used for data analysis. Baseline is defined as post ocular hypotensive medication washout and prior to Day 0, day of surgery.
Baseline, Month 12 postoperative

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean change (mmHg) from baseline in unmedicated DIOP at Month 12
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 12 postoperative
IOP will be measured at three timepoints during the day (8:00 AM, 12:00 PM, and 4:00 PM) using Goldmann tonometry. Each time IOP is measured, two measurements will be taken unless they differ by more than 2 mmHg, in which case a third measurement will be taken. The mean of two measurements (or the median value in the case of three IOP measurements) will be used for data analysis. Baseline is defined as post ocular hypotensive medication washout and prior to Day 0, day of surgery.
Baseline, Month 12 postoperative
