What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Baseline

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured in the left and right eyes at Baseline.

    Time frame: Baseline

  2. IOP at Week 12

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. IOP was measured in the left and right eyes at Week 12.

    Time frame: Week 12

Secondary outcomes

  1. Physician Evaluation of IOP Lowering in the Study Eye(s)

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the eye. Physicians evaluated IOP compared to the target IOP for each patient's study eye(s). The numbers of eyes in each category are presented.

    Time frame: Week 12

  2. Patient Assessment of Tolerability on a 4-Point Scale

    Patient assessment of tolerability was assessed using a 4-point scale (very good, good, moderate, and poor). The numbers of patients in each category are presented.

    Time frame: Week 12

  3. Physician Assessment of Tolerability on a 4-Point Scale

    Physician assessment of tolerability was assessed using a 4-point scale (very good, good, moderate, and poor). The numbers of patients in each category are presented.

    Time frame: Week 12

  4. Physician Assessment of Patient Compliance Compared to Previous Therapy

    Physician assessment of patient compliance compared to previous therapy was assessed on a 3-point scale (better, equal, and worse). The numbers of patients in each category are presented.

    Time frame: Week 12

  5. Percentage of Patients Who Discontinue Treatment With Bimatoprost-Containing Eye Drops Prior to 12 Weeks of Treatment

    Patients who discontinue treatment with bimatoprost-containing eye drops prior to 12 weeks of treatment was assessed as Yes or No.

    Time frame: 12 Weeks

  6. Percentage of Patients Who Continue Treatment With Bimatoprost-Containing Eye Drops

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
Not marked actual or estimatedDates not marked actual or estimated

The record gives a start of May 2012, a primary completion of Apr 2013 and a completion of Apr 2013. It does not say whether these dates are actual or estimated.

Results were first posted in Jun 2014, 1 year 2 months after primary completion.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 13, 2014, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
