Study summary

Aim: To demonstrate the non-inferiority of the PRO-122 ophthalmic solution manufactured by Laboratorios Sophia S.A. de C.V. versus Krytantek Ofteno® ophthalmic solution like hypotensive therapy in subjects with primary open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Study design: a multicentric, prospective, crossover (2x2), double blind clinical study. Sample size: one hundred patients with primary open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Patients in the period 1: In the first sequence 30 patients will be assigned to receive the ophthalmic solution: Krytantek Ofteno ® (timolol 0.5%%/brimonidine 0.2%/dorzolamide 2%) 1 drop B.I.D. during 30 days and the second sequence 30 patients will be assigned to receive the ophthalmic solution: PRO-122 1 drop B.I.D. during 30 days in the same period. Washout period: 20 hours. Patients in the period 2: the pharmacological intervention change to the opposite therapy for 30 days

Read the detailed description

The American Academy of Ophthalmology Glaucoma Panel: The primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a progressive, chronic optic neuropathy in adults in which intraocular pressure (IOP) and other currently unknown factors contribute to damage and in which, in the absence of other identifiable causes, there is a characteristic acquired atrophy of the optic nerve and loss of retinal ganglion cells and their axons. This condition is associated with an anterior chamber angle that is open by gonioscopic appearance.

This is a multicentric, crossover, double blind and prospective clinical study. The investigators will include patients with confirmed diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, with target intraocular pressure (TIOP) within a range at which a patient is likely to remain stable or at which worsening of glaucoma will be slow enough that the risk of additional intervention is not justified.

Patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, one of them treated with a known formulation of timolol 0.5%/brimonidine 0.2%/dorzolamide 2% (Krytantek Ofteno®, Laboratorios Sophia, Mexico) and the other one treated with PRO-122 ophthalmic solution. Patients will receive 1 drop B.I.D. into the lower conjunctival sac of either formulations and were examined at days: 1, 15, 30, 45 and 61 after initiation of treatment. A phone call security at day 75 will be performed.

Primary efficacy outcome: To evaluate the efficacy of PRO-122 versus Krytantek Ofteno® instilled onto the ocular surface in subjects with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) or ocular hypertension (HTO), to control and maintenance of the target intraocular pressure (TIOP).

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

General Criteria

  1. Subjects with topical or systemic medication that interferes decisively in the results of the study. (Such as topical immunomodulators, lacrimal point tamponade, , ocular hypotensives other than those listed above, artificial tears with preservative).
  2. Subjects (female) with an active sex life who are not using a method.
  3. Female Subjects in pregnancy or breastfeeding.
  4. Female subjects with positive urine pregnancy test.
  5. Positive drug addiction (verbal interrogation).
  6. Subjects who have participated in any clinical research study in the last 40 days.
  7. Legally or mentally disabled subjects to give for their participation in this study.
  8. Subjects who can not comply with the appointments or with all the requirements of the protocol.

Ophthalmologic criteria

  1. Subject with only one eye with vision.
  2. Subjects with visual capacity 20/200 or worse.
  3. Subjects with a narrow-angle history without treatment, with or without total or partial closure of the angle in either eye.
  4. Subjects with corneal abnormalities that prevent applanation tonometry.
  5. Subjects with ocular surgery or ocular trauma 6 months prior to inclusion.
  6. Any ocular laser surgery 3 months prior.
  7. Any uncontrolled or progressive retinal disease.
  8. Inflammatory diseases of any kind.
  9. Contact lens wearers.
  10. Subjects with a history of to any of the ingredients of the research product or its analogues.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Corticosteroids (steroids)

Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Intraocular Pressure (IOP)

    Intraocular pressure, Unit: Millimeters of mercury (mmHg) type of variable: Continuous, Measurement method: Goldman applanation tonometry. Normal intraocular pressure 11-21 mmHg. The change between the IOP of both groups was compared (sequence 1 versus sequence 2) of the data obtained at the end of each period (day 30 and day 60).

    Time frame: Change from Baseline intraocular pressure at day 30 and 60.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Visual Acuity (VA)

    The VA will be evaluated basally, without refractive correction with the Snellen chart. A Snellen chart is placed at a standard distance: 20 ft. At this distance, the symbols on the line representing "normal" acuity subtend. This line, designated 20/20 is the smallest line that a person with normal acuity can read at a distance of 20fs. the scale consists of 11 lines of letters of different size, the size of the letter gives a fractional value according to the visual acuity of the patient, the value is inversely proportional to the visual acuity, if the denominator is greater the visual acuity will be less. Line 1: 20/200 Line 2: 20/100, Line 3: 20/70, line 4: 20/50, line 5: 20/40, Line 6: 20/30, line 7: 20/25, Line 8: 20/20, line 9: 20/15, line 10: 20/13, line 11: 20/10. the differences between groups in the basal, cross over and final visit will be evaluated.
