Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluation of Intraocular Pressure Using Simbrinza™ in Patients With Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension (NCT NCT01978600)

NCT ID: NCT01978600

Last Updated: 2015-04-13

Results Overview

Nocturnal IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) is the mean of the nocturnal time points assessed (10 PM to 6 AM). IOP was measured with a calibrated applanation tonometer in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One eye from each subject was chosen as the study eye and only data for the study eye were used for the efficacy analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Week 4: 10PM, 12AM, 2AM, 4AM, 6AM

Population: This analysis population includes all participants who received study medication and had at least one on-therapy study visit.

Nocturnal IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) is the mean of the nocturnal time points assessed (10 PM to 6 AM). IOP was measured with a calibrated applanation tonometer in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One eye from each subject was chosen as the study eye and only data for the study eye were used for the efficacy analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).

Timeframe: Week 4: 8AM, 10AM, 12PM, 2PM, 4PM, 6PM, 8PM

Population: This analysis population includes all participants who received study medication and had at least one on-therapy study visit.

Diurnal IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) is the mean of the diurnal time points assessed (8 AM to 8 PM). IOP was measured with a calibrated applanation tonometer in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One eye from each subject was chosen as the study eye and only data for the study eye were used for the efficacy analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).

24-hour IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) is the mean of all the time points assessed (8 AM to 6 AM). IOP was measured with a calibrated applanation tonometer in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). One eye from each subject was chosen as the study eye and only data for the study eye were used for the efficacy analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).
