Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Prospective, double-masked, randomized, multi-center, active-controlled, parallel-group, 3-month study assessing the safety and ocular hypotensive efficacy of TearClear latanoprost Ophthalmic Solution, 0.005% (TC-002) compared to latanoprost Ophthalmic Solution, 0.005% (LAT) in subjects with elevated intraocular pressure at approximately 20 study sites located in the United States

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a Phase 3, randomized, investigator-masked, multicenter, parallel-group trial comparing two ophthalmic solution formulations of latanoprost at a fixed dose of 0.005% administered once daily (QD) for 12 weeks.

Approximately 300 subjects will be randomized in this study at approximately 20 sites in the United States (US).

Treatment assignments will be masked to TearClear, study subjects, Investigators and site staff. Because the container closure for the investigational product is different, this study will use an unmasked dosing coordinator at each study site. All clinical trial supplies will be masked by using carton boxes to mask the appearance of the immediate container closure.

At approximately 2 select sites, approximately10% of total randomized subjects will have systemic PK labs drawn.

The study involves 7 clinic visits, including Screening (Visit 1), Randomization (Visit 2) and treatment visits (Visits 3, 5 and 7, during which ophthalmic assessments will occur and IOP will be assessed diurnally. There will be two interim IP dispensation visits (Visits 4 and 6).

Participants Investigators Outcome Assessors
Treatment assignments will be masked to the Sponsor, subjects, Investigators and select investigative staff, until completion of the study and the final database is locked. The appearance of the bottles in the two treatment arms are not identical; however, the cartons and labeling on the cartons in which the bottles are supplied will be identical and identified with unique kit numbers. Therefore, the dedicated dosing coordinator will handle IP-related responsibilities but will be otherwise uninvolved in study assessments.

Appropriate precautions must be taken to prevent unauthorized access to the randomization scheme. Unless the subject's safety requires otherwise and if time permits, the decision to unmask an individual subject's treatment assignment is to be made jointly by the Investigator and Sponsor's medical monitor after consultation with the Sponsor, thus leaving the masking of the remaining subjects intact.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Greater than 18 years old.
2. Have been diagnosed and treated for bilateral open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes.
3. Currently and for at least 30 days prior to screening, are being treated with a stable dose of latanoprost ophthalmic solution or prostaglandin analog for which there is a documented and positive treatment response with either agent maintained within both eyes.
4. Have best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) via Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) visual acuity (VA) score +0.6 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) or better in each eye.
5. At Visit 1, have IOP on prostaglandin or prostaglandin analog single therapy ≤ 21mmHg, at Visit 2, have diurnal IOP between 22 and 30 mmHG, inclusive for each eye.
6. In the Investigator's judgment, are able to safely discontinue current ocular hypotensive medication during the washout period.
7. Willing and able to avoid wearing contact lenses from Visit 1 (Screening) and for the duration of the trial.
8. Willing and able to self-administer or have an able person available on a daily basis to assist with administration of study medication.
9. Female subjects must either be incapable of pregnancy because of bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy, or bilateral tubal ligation, or be post-menopausal (have been amenorrheic for at least 2 years) or must use an effective (e.g., double-barrier) method of birth control for the duration of the study. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test and not be nursing.
10. Willing and able to comply with all study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria

1. narrow angles (3 quadrants with less than Grade 2 according to Shaffer anterior chamber angle grading system) and subjects with angle closure
2. clinically significant peripheral anterior synechiae
3. congenital glaucoma
4. a history of angle closure in either eye
5. aphakic glaucoma
6. traumatic glaucoma
7. neovascular glaucoma
8. pigmentary glaucoma
9. pseudoexfoliative glaucoma
