How Much Does Reduced Dosing of Latanoprost and Dorzolamide-timolol Affect Pressure?

April 15, 2024 updated by: Peter E. Libre, CT Glaucoma Associates

Cross-over Comparison of Latanoprost QOD With Dor-tim QAM to Tim-brim-dor-bim(Atoprost) qd or Lat QD With Dor-tim BID

IOP effect of half-dose latanoprost dorzolamide-timolol will be compared to full dose. Further comparison will be made timolol-brimonidine-dorzolamide-bimatoprost. Dry eye effects of the different treatments will be assessed.

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

Subjects will have baseline IOP measurements (7-9 am and 3-5 pm) after using using latanoprost every other day and dorzolamide-timolol every morning. They will then randomly be assigned in phase 2 to either: double the frequency to latanoprost daily and dorzolamide-timolol twice daily; or use every morning compounded timolol-brimonidine-dorzolamide-bimatoprost. IOP measurements will be repeated 3 weeks after using the phase 2 medications. For phase 3, subjects will use the treatment to which they were not assigned in phase 2, and IOP measurements will again be repeated 3 weeks later.

At each study visit, dry eye signs will be assessed and brief dry eye survey will be administered.

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

Ages Eligible for Study

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adult glaucoma patients who are taking drops: dor-tim and Latanoprost Ophthalmic Solution 0.005% (Lat) and come in for an appointment during the trial period

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients who had an SLT or glaucoma procedure or surgery within 3 months of enrollment will be excluded. Other exclusion criteria include the logistical inability to follow up with the trial, the inability to relax eye muscles for an accurate tonometry measurement, and the inability to instill medications.

The final determination to be included in the study will be made by the Physician on the day of the appointment.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: full dose lat dor-tim; tim-brim-dor-bim
After baseline IOP measurements, subjects in this arm will use the full dose full dose latanoprost and dorzolamide-timolol in phase 2, and then timolol-brimonidine-dorzolamide-bimatoprost in phase 3.
Compare half-frequency dosing of latanoprost and dorzolamide/timolol to full dosing. Compare also to timolol/brimonidine/dorzolamide/bimatoprost
Other Names:
  • latanoprost
  • timolol/brimonidine/dorzolamide/bimatoprost
Active Comparator: tim-brim-dor-bim; full dose lat dor-tim
After baseline IOP measurements, subjects in this arm will use timolol-brimonidine-dorzolamide-bimatoprost in phase 2, and then full dose latanoprost and dorzolamide-timolol in phase 3.
Compare half-frequency dosing of latanoprost and dorzolamide/timolol to full dosing. Compare also to timolol/brimonidine/dorzolamide/bimatoprost
Other Names:
  • latanoprost
  • timolol/brimonidine/dorzolamide/bimatoprost
