Conditions: Glaucoma Ocular Hypertension
Allocation: RANDOMIZED | Intervention model: CROSSOVER
Enrollment: 46
Healthy volunteers: no

Brief summary:
Double blind, crossover randomized, multicentric study to compare efficacy and tolerability of concomitant administration of travoprost and brinzolamide versus timolol-dorzolamide fixed combination in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension

Detailed description:

Arms:
arm 1: 3 period, 2 treatment cross-over model:

Participants received Treatment A, which was concomitant administration of travoprost 0.004% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye at approximately 19:45 p.m.) and brinzolamide 1% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.) for period 1 for 8 weeks. Then participants received Treatment B, which was fixed combination of timolol 0.5% and dorzolamide 2% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.), and travoprost vehicle (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at approximately 19:45 p.m.) for Period 2 (8 weeks) and Period 3 (8 weeks) arm 2: 3 period, 2 treatment cross-over model:

Participants received Treatment B, which was fixed combination of timolol 0.5% and dorzolamide 2% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.), and travoprost vehicle (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at approximately 19:45 p.m.) for Period 1 (8 weeks). Then participants received Treatment A, which was concomitant administration of travoprost 0.004% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye at approximately 19:45 p.m.) and brinzolamide 1% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.) for Period 2 (8 weeks) and Period 3 (8 weeks).

Interventions: intervention 1: travoprost 0.004% and brinzolamide 1% intervention 2: fixed combination of timolol 0.5% and dorzolamide 2% plus travoprost vehicle
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Group A = concomitant administration of travoprost 0.004% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye at approximately 19:45 p.m.) and brinzolamide 1% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.) intervention 2: group B = fixed combination of timolol 0.5% and dorzolamide 2% (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at 08:00 a.m. and at 20:00 p.m.), and travoprost vehicle (ophthalmic drops, 1 drop/eye, at approximately 19:45 p.m.).
