Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Effectiveness of the Sight Sciences VISCO™360 Versus SLT in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (NCT NCT02928289)

NCT ID: NCT02928289

Last Updated: 2025-11-14

Results Overview

The mean of the difference between the baseline DIOP and the 12 month DIOP for each subject. Measurements at baseline and 12 months are following wash-out of glaucoma medication.

Participant Flow

Twenty-nine potential subjects provided written informed consent, however only 17 met eligibility criteria and were then randomized and treated.

Subjects provided informed consent at the Screening visit and if the screening eligibility criteria were met, underwent a washout of their intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering medication (generally 4 weeks) before returning for the baseline visit where diurnal IOP was measured. Subjects meeting the diurnall IOP criteria at the baseline visit were than randomized and treated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: Only seven (7) subjects, 3 in the VISCO360 group, and 4 in the SLT group had completed the Month 12 endpoint visit at the time the study was terminated for poor enrollment. One of the 4 subjects in the SLT group underwent a secondary glaucoma procedure (gel stent) at Day 266 so the 12 month DIOP was imputed as the Baseline DIOP (per the protocol analysis plan).

The mean of the difference between the baseline DIOP and the 12 month DIOP for each subject. Measurements at baseline and 12 months are following wash-out of glaucoma medication.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 12 months

Population: Only seven (7) subjects, 3 in the VISCO360 group, and 4 in the SLT group had completed the Month 12 endpoint visit at the time the study was terminated for poor enrollment.

Measurement is performed at 12 months following wash-out of glaucoma medication and is the number of subjects with 12 month DIOP that is at least 20% lower than the baseline DIOP divided by the number of subjects and multiplied by 100.
