Glaucoma, Open-Angle study: Test - Bimatoprost vs Reference - LUMIGAN®
Official title Bioequivalence Study With Clinical Endpoint Comparing Bimatoprost Ophthalmic Solution 0.01% and LUMIGAN® in the Treatment of Chronic Open-Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension in Both Eyes.
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05401357
What this study is testing
What is Test - Bimatoprost 0.01% Ophthalmic Solution?
an investigational eye drop being studied as a potential treatment for chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension is designed to increase outflow of aqueous humor to lower intraocular pressure
Also referred to as LUMIGAN® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.01%).
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- The study will compare the effectiveness of a generic bimatoprost eye drop with the brand-name LUMIGAN to see if they are equivalent in treating both eyes.
- Who it's for
- Adults who have chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes.
- What's involved
- Participants will receive one of the two eye drops and will have eye exams and tests during the study period.
- Time commitment
- The study lasts a single period of treatment with visits for eye exams and monitoring, but the exact length is not specified in the source.
- Phase 3: a large, late-stage study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
