PEI-GT Trial for Initial Treatment of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma With Cataract
Efficacy and Safety of Phacoemulsification Combined With Gonioscopy-Assisted Trabeculotomy as Initial Treatment for Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma With Cataract: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether doing phacoemulsification combined with gonioscopy-assisted trabeculotomy as an initial treatment can reduce the burden of glaucoma eye drops in adults with primary open-angle glaucoma and cataract. It will also learn whether this early surgical strategy improves ocular surface health and vision-related quality of life. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does early combined surgery reduce the need for long-term glaucoma medications? Does early combined surgery improve ocular surface health compared with cataract surgery followed by guideline-based glaucoma eye drops? Does early combined surgery improve vision-related quality of life and anxiety compared with the medication-based treatment strategy? What medical problems or complications do participants have after treatment? Researchers will compare phacoemulsification combined with gonioscopy-assisted trabeculotomy to phacoemulsification followed by guideline-based topical eye pressure-lowering medications.
Participants will:
Undergo cataract surgery with or without gonioscopy-assisted trabeculotomy Attend follow-up visits for 24 months after treatment Have eye pressure, visual acuity, OCT, AS-OCT, visual field, ocular surface, and safety examinations at scheduled visits Complete quality-of-life and anxiety questionnaires at scheduled visits Provide tear samples at selected visits for biomarker testing where applicable

Intervention / Behandling |
|---|---|
|
Eksperimentel: PEI combined with gonioscopy-assisted trabeculotomy
Participants will undergo phacoemulsification cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation combined with approximately 120 degrees of ab interno gonioscopy-assisted trabeculotomy during the same surgical session.
Postoperative care will follow the protocol, and rescue IOP-lowering medications may be added if clinically indicated.
|
Phacoemulsification combined with Ab interno trabeculotomy performed under gonioscopic visualization for approximately 120 degrees to incise/open the trabecular meshwork and expose Schlemm canal.
The cutting instrument will be non-device-dependent, such as a Tanito hook, Lanxin knife, Zeng knife, or bent 25-26G needle; KDB is not included as the cutting blade.
|
|
Aktiv komparator: PEI combined with conventional IOP-lowering medications
Participants will undergo phacoemulsification cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation.
Postoperatively, conventional topical IOP-lowering medications will be initiated or adjusted according to guideline-based care and clinical judgment when IOP remains above target.
|
Phacoemulsification combined with guideline-based topical IOP-lowering therapy, generally including prostaglandin analogues unless contraindicated, with beta-blockers, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, alpha-2 agonists, or other agents added or adjusted according to efficacy, tolerance, contraindications, and clinical judgment.
