Number of patients: n=24 12 subjects per group (both eyes). Main inclusion criteria:Clinically healthy subjects.

Detailed description:
Number of patients: n = 24 12 subjects per group (both eyes). Main inclusion criteria: Clinically healthy subjects.

Treatment duration: 7 days. Duration of subject in the study: 15 to 22 days.

Adverse events will be reported and cataloged based on the MedDRA dictionary and will be reported to the corresponding regulatory entity.

The sponsor will carry out monitoring or quality visits to the research sites where it corroborates the information of the source documents and will contrast them with the information presented in the electronic CRF. Electronic case report forms will be evaluated by the clinical research associate and the clinical team of the sponsor (medical ophthalmologist researcher and pharmacologist of clinical safety).

Statistical methodology:

The data will be expressed with measures of central tendency: mean and standard deviation for the quantitative variables. The qualitative variables will be presented in frequencies and percentages. The statistical analysis will be carried out by means of the Mann-Whitney U test for the quantitative variables for the difference between the groups. The difference between the qualitative variables will be analyzed by means of X2 (Chi2). An alpha ≤ 0.05 will be considered significant.

5. Introduction . 
5.1 Theoretical framework. 
Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy characterized by the loss of ganglion cells of the retina 
and their respective axons, resulting in the distinctive appearance of the optic disc and concomitant 
loss of visual function. [1] It is the second cause of blindness worldwide and it is estimated that by 
2020, 79.6 million people will have glaucoma, with 74% of these corresponding to primary open-
angle glaucoma (POAG). [2] The Latin American population, especially that of Mexican origin, is 
more prone to develop POAG compared with whites. [3, 4] 
The mechanism by which glaucoma damages the optic nerve is probably multifactorial, 
notwithstanding, elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is the main risk factor and the only one that 
can be modified at present to prevent the progression of glaucoma damage, including Normo-tense 
glaucoma. [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. It has also been shown that the reduction in IOP decreases the rate of 
conversion of ocular hypertension (OHT) to glaucoma. [7] Chauhan et al have reported that for every 
1 mmHg increase in IOP, the risk of glaucoma progression increases 19%. [5] 
Despite the great advances in surgical filtering treatments, implants and laser procedures that 
improve trabecular drainage, pharmacological therapy continues to be the initial intervention for 
the majority of patients with OHT and glaucoma; this treatment typically includes the topical 
application of antihypertensive agents. [10] 
Currently the pharmacological options for the reduction of IOP, with topical application, include 
prostaglandin analogues (PGA), beta blockers (BB), alpha adrenergic agonists (AA), carbonic 
anhydrase inhibitors (CAI) and parasympathomimetics. Commonly, pharmacotherapy begins with 
the application of a single hypotensive agent, usually of the so-called first line (prostaglandin analogs 
or beta blockers). [11] Nevertheless, monotherapy may be insufficient in many cases, due to the 
inability to reach the target IOP and / or prevent the progression of glaucoma. In some other cases, 
the same medication may lose its effectiveness over time, due to tachyphylaxis. [12] The Ocular 
Hypertensive Treatment Study reported that at 5 years, about 40% of patients require two 
medications to achieve a 20% reduction in IOP compared to baseline, while an additional 9% needs 
more than two medications. [7] Therefore, more than one medication is frequently required for the 
adequate control of IOP in the medium and long term. This can be achieved with the concurrent use 
of two or more drugs of different classes, either by its concomitant application or in a fixed 
combination. [12] 
In addition to the effectiveness in decreasing IOP, fixed combinations offer multiple benefits when 
compared with the concomitant application of their active principles. [13] These benefits include 
lower cost, simpler treatment regimen, better adherence to treatment and decreased risk of 
washing. [14, 15]  
Fixed combinations also offer a decrease in the risk of corneal damage and ocular surface associated 
with cumulative exposure of preservatives. For example, chronic exposure to benzalkonium chloride 
(BAK), used in many ophthalmological drugs, has been associated with inflammation and 
conjunctival and corneal damage, alterations of the tear film and symptoms of ocular surface 
disease. [16, 17, 18] 
Currently the fixed combinations available include BB timolol 0.5% combined with a drug from the 
other therapeutic families, a PGA, an AA or a topical ICA. [19] In Mexico and other South American

countries there is also the triple fixed combination, which includes timolol, brimonidine and 
dorzolamide. 
5.2 Background . 
The preservatives are used with the purpose of inhibiting the microbial growth and suppressing 
biodegradation inside the medicines. [20] A variety of conservatives have been used throughout 
history. The chronic use of these drugs has been linked to irritation and alterations of the ocular 
surface, it has been established that the conservatives themselves have adverse events, which are 
attached to those of the active principle that preserve. [21] 
The preservatives are classified into detergents and oxidants, and a more recent version of oxidants 
called buffered by ions. [20] BAK is the most historically used preservative, belongs to the class of 
detergents and its concentration in ocular hypotensives varies from 0.004 to 0.02%, the reasons for 
its popularity include its broad spectrum of action and its familiarity with the formulating industry. 
While its effectiveness is well recognized, there are numerous studies documenting the harmful 
effects of BAK. It is known that BAK at concentrations of 0.05-0.1% induces necrosis and at 
concentrations of 0.01% apoptosis. Its effects are cumulative and become more severe at higher 
concentration and with more frequent exposures. [20, 22] 
The triple fixed combination has been evaluated in several studies, being compared against double 
fixed combinations. In a randomized, double-blind study in 112 patients, the IDB application was 
compared for 180 days of fixed triple therapy against the 0.5% timolol / fixed 2% dorzolamide 
combination. The triple combination was superior with a difference of 3.4mmHg in the average IOP 
in the third month. [23] 
Another study compared the tripla fixed combination against the fixed combination timolol 0.5% / 
brimonidine 0.2%. It was a double blind, randomized study in patients with glaucoma and / or ocular 
hypertension, with BID application for 3 months. The triple combination was superior with a 
difference of 2.16mmHg in the average IOP at the third month in the 08:00 hours review. [24] 
Baiza L et al., Conducted a study in which evaluated the safety profile of the ophthalmic solution 
consisting of 0.5% timolol / 2% dorzolamide / brimonidine versus the ophthalmic solution 
constituted by timolol / dorzolamide in patients with primary open angle glaucoma and / or 
intraocular hypertension who received for 6 months 1 drop BID of the product under investigation 
and comparator drug.  
Results: 112 patients participated in the study, who were divided into 2 study groups, 56 subjects 
for each pharmacological intervention. Regarding the safety profile: there were no significant 
differences in the parameters of visual acuity, hyperemia, stains, visual fields, symptomatology (eye 
pain, burning, photophobia and foreign body sensation) between the study groups. Group exposed 
to timolol / dorzolamide / brimonidine: 2/56 (3.5%) subjects reported presenting at least 1 adverse 
event. In the group that received timolol / dorzolamide, 6/56 subjects were registered who 
manifested at least 1 adverse event. None of the events that occurred motivated the removal or 
elimination of any patient. The research group concluded that both the investigational product and 
the comparator drug were safe and well tolerated. It showed better safety profile with the triple 
combination. (Table 3. Adverse events of the Baiza study 2009) [25]

The research team concluded that the safety profile of the ophthalmic solution consisting of 
brimonidine, timolol and dorzolamide was better, because there were only 3 events compared to 
the 5 registered in patients who received dual therapy. Notwithstanding, both therapies were 
considered safe. [24] (Table 4. Adverse events of the Baiza study 2012) 
 
García A, et al., Reported the safety profile by developing a cross-over clinical trial, 2 periods, 2 
sequences involving patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and / or ocular hypertension who 
previously received the ophthalmic solution in combination fixed, conformed by bimatoprost 0.03% 
/ timolol 0.5% or the ophthalmic solution in fixed combination constituted by brimonidine 0.2% / 
timolol 0.5% / dorzolamide 2% at a dose of 1 drop 2 times a day for 3 months; in each period, in the 
case of subjects exposed to triple therapy and a dose of 1 drop 1 time a day for 3 months; in each 
period, in the case of patients with combined double therapy.  
 
Results: Few adverse events were reported by the participants throughout the study. The most 
frequent event was hyperemia and was the only event associated with the investigational drug. [27]

totality of the population evaluated during the development of the study, nevetheless, it refers to 
the type of intervention that the participant received at the time of presentation of the event that 
led to the patient's withdrawal. 
Adverse reactions associated with 0.5% timolol maleate at ocular level may be: transient burning, 
decreased corneal sensitivity, allergic blepharoconjunctivitis, superficial punctate keratitis, 
conjunctival hyperemia, keratoconjunctivitis sicca, ptosis, diplopia, blurred vision, refractive 
changes (due, in some cases, to the suspension of treatment with miotics). At the level of the central 
nervous system: headache, dizziness, lethargy, confusion, hallucinations, fatigue and depression.  
Cardiovascular: systemic arterial hypotension, bradycardia, arrhythmia, atrioventricular heart block, 
cardiac arrest, congestive heart failure, syncope, stroke, tachycardia and cerebral ischemia; the 
latter have been more common in the elderly or in people with previous cardiovascular disorders. 
Adverse reactions at the respiratory level: bronchial spasm, (especially in subjects with a history of 
bronchospastic disorders), respiratory insufficiency and dyspnea. Other reactions: worsening of 
myasthenia gravis, alopecia, ungueal pigmentary changes, nausea, localized and generalized skin 
rash, urticaria, asthenia, sexual dysfunction, including impotence, decreased libido and reduced 
ejaculation; hyperkalemia, masking of symptoms of hypoglycemia in patients with insulin-
dependent diabetes, diarrhea and paresthesias. [28] 
The adverse reactions reported with the use of brimonidine tartrate 0.2%, in greater frequency are: 
dry mouth sensation, drowsiness, fatigue, cardiopulmonary alterations. At the ocular level: 
hyperemia, burning, blepharoconjunctivitis and allergic conjunctivitis, acute ocular conjunctivitis, 
transient miosis in people sensitive to the formula. [29]

Dorzolamide hydrochloride 2% is generally well tolerated. The most frequently reported adverse 
effects have been transient ocular burning, taste distortion, corneal erosion, conjunctival injection, 
blurred vision, lachrymation and ocular itching. [30] 
5.3 Statement of the problem. 
For the treatment of HTO and GPAA, the use of a single medication may be insufficient when trying 
to reach the goal IOP, so it is necessary to resort to the use of 2 or more ocular hypotensives from 
different families. In a simplified scheme of treatment of glaucoma, it is proposed to start with 
monotherapy, based on a first line medication such as a PGA or a BB, the first being the most favored 
by ophthalmologists at present. If this initial therapy is not enough, but if it responds, a second 
medication is added, preferably the other first-line medication not previously used. In this 
intermediate therapy, the patient would already be receiving 3 to 4 daily instillations, theoretically 
compromising their attachment to the treatment and exposing it to a higher cumulative dose of 
BAK. So the attending physician may decide to migrate to a fixed combination of two medications. 
If the IOP goal is not achieved, a third medication can be added by reaching the maximum tolerated 
medical therapy scheme (TMMT) stipulated by Zimmerman of 3 medications in 3 daily instillations. 
[31] 
As previously stated, the use of fixed combinations has advantages over the concomitant application 
of its components. As far as we know, there are no reports of the evaluation of the triple fixed 
combination compared to the concomitant application of its components. Fixed triple therapy can 
increase adherence to treatment with TMMT and broadens the horizon towards the new TMMT 
plan postulated by Sampaolesi, which includes fixed triple therapy + a PGA. [31] 
5.4 Justification. 
 
During the treatment of a patient with glaucoma, it may be necessary, at some point in the 
evolution, to require 2 or more medications to achieve the desired control of IOP. Fixed 
combinations offer multiple advantages, including a simplified regimen that can lead to better 
attachment, greater convenience for the patient resulting from the use of fewer bottles and 
instillations, less exposure to preservatives that can potentially damage the ocular surface, 
eliminates the washing effect and finally an economical saving in the cost of the therapy.

5.6 Design and plan of the study. 
Clinical trial, phase I, controlled, parallel group, double blind randomization, exploratory.  
5.6.1 Discussion of the study design. 
The design of the study (clinical trial) is considered the highest standard of data quality when looking 
to explore the effect of an intervention. The phase of pharmacological development (phase I) 
corresponds to the objective of the study which is to assess the safety and tolerability, so that the 
intervention time is short and the sample size required is less than that of an efficacy clinical trial. 
The presence of parallel groups allows the comparison between the intervention groups on the

outcome variables. Blinding and randomisation allow to reduce biases that are incurred with other 
designs, eg. Selection bias, evaluation bias, among others. 
The comparator, Krytantek Ofteno®, has a known safety profile and shares the same active 
principles in the same concentrations as PRO-122, reason why it was chosen as an option to 
compare.  
5.6.2 Justification of the posology. 
The chosen dosage is one drop every 12 hours, this is the approved dosage for the reference 
medicine. For this phase I study, we do not consider it necessary to expose the research subjects to 
dosage rates higher than those recommended, since it is not justifiable.

6. Material and methods. Participants, interventions and 
variables. 
6.1 Study center. 
The present study will be carried out in a research center previously evaluated by the sponsor. This 
center will be an institution or establishment where health research is carried out that complies 
with current regulations. 
6.1.1 Organization of the center. 
Each study center will have a principal investigator (PI). The PI is the ophthalmology specialist 
responsible for the clinical study. 
The PI will also be responsible for forming a multidisciplinary research team to carry out the clinical 
study according to protocol, under its scientific guidance. It is the prerogative of the PI the design of 
the organization of its center and the selection of the personnel that will perform the functions. 
However, the minimum organization of the research team requested by the sponsor requires the 
figure of sub-researcher, study coordinator and pharmacist or unblinded staff (See Figure 2 
Minimum organization of the center). 
Any person to whom the PI designates, under his / her responsibility, a part of the follow-up of the 
study (co-investigator, sub-researcher, nurse, etc.) or a specific function of participation in the study 
(pharmacist, administrative assistant, study coordinator, etc.) must appear in the "Delegation of 
Responsibilities" format. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Figure 2 Minimum organization of the center. 
The "Delegation of Responsibilities" and the "Organizational Chart of the Center" must be delivered 
to the sponsor before the start of the study and updated if the members or their responsibilities are 
changed. 
6.1.2 Documentation to be delivered to the sponsor. 
The PI must deliver to the sponsor, before the start of the study: 
- Curriculum vitae updated, in Spanish, dated and signed (maximum 10 pages), of the PI and the 
personnel that make up the organizational chart of the center. 
- Copy of PI academic certifications (degree certificate and specialty diploma in ophthalmology; 
federal professional certificates)

6.1.3 Closure of the center. 
The closing of the center will be carried out once the last visit of the last included subject previously 
agreed between the sponsor and the PI has been made. The closing process will be according to the 
normal procedures of the sponsor's internal operations and must have the disposition and 
participation of the PI and whoever he designates. 
It is the sponsor's prerogative to prematurely close a study center, it must inform the PI the reasons 
for the closure. These can be, but do not exclude: 
a) Less recruitment to the projected. 
b) Deviations greater than the protocol, which at the sponsor's discretion merit closing the 
center. 
c) Recidivism of deviations to the protocol, which at the sponsor's discretion merit closing the 
center.

Subjects who do not meet the eligibility criteria to participate in the study (inclusion failure) due to 
a specific modifiable factor, could re-participate in the scrutiny. The subjects in this case must use 
the same initial counting number. 
6.2.4 Recruitment and retention strategies. 
This is a phase I study, which will be conducted in a center. The selected center will be responsible 
for the recruitment of healthy subjects. The minimum recruitment index is 0.53 patients per day, 
because it must recruit 24 subjects in 45 days. 
The duration of the participation of the subject in the study is short, so no retention problems are 
anticipated. However, the subjects will be creditors of a travel allowance support and fulfill their 
visits. Other strategies to improve the retention of subjects include, but are not limited to: 
• 
Clearly inform the importance of the study and the benefits that the population will obtain 
from the results of the study. 
• 
Make calls or send text messages to remember appointments or activities to perform. 
• 
Provide a printed calendar and an identification card in order to remember appointments 
and activities that will be carried out, in addition to the estimated duration of the same. 
 
In case the participant does not attend his / her appointment, the research center must 
make a call to know the reason and try to arrange a new appointment within the established 
window period or an unscheduled appointment. In case it is not possible to make an 
appointment, it will be asked about the presence of adverse events and the reason for 
leaving the study, such as data. 
All materials to be delivered to the subject will be submitted for approval by the corresponding 
committees. 
6.2.5 Identification of the subject. 
The study patients will be identified by a number and the initials of their name. 
The initials of the subject of study will be obtained starting with the first letter of the name, followed 
by the first letter of the first surname and the first letter of the second surname, obtaining maximum 
three letters, in case the person has two names or last name always composed the first letter will 
be used 
Example: 
1. Arieh Daniel Mercado Carrizalez 
a. Initials: AMC 
2. Juan De la Torre Orozco 
a. IInitials: JDO 
At the counting stage, the participant number will be assigned consecutively, using 3 consecutive 
digits. Once the subject has been selected, he will be assigned a number with which he will be 
identified throughout the study. Said code will be composed of eight numbers in the following order 
from left to right:  
• 
Three digits of the molecule under study according to the denomination by the sponsor. 
• 
Two digits corresponding to the research center number. 
• 
Three digits of the number consecutive to their inclusion assigned in the research center.

6.3.2.1 Procedure to monitor adherence. 
For more than four decades, there have been numerous investigations on the proper way to 
measure and quantify adherence to medications, nevertheless none has reached consensus to

 Clinical Trial Protocol: SOPH122-0518 / I 
Version 1 
Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V.                                                                                                      Pag 29 of 69 
 
establish itself as the gold standard, both in cross-sectional and longitudinal studies. [34] [35] [36] 
[37] [38] [39] [40] [41] 
There are different procedures to measure the adherence of pharmacological interventions. The 
most common procedure includes self-reports, these include: patient interviews, questionnaires 
and self-monitoring journals. Its strengths are speed, flexibility, low cost and ease of 
implementation; they have a high degree of specificity for non-adherence, however, the sensitivity 
and reliability for adherence is low. [41] [42] 
The biochemical measurement of the drug, or its metabolite, is one of the methods that best 
confirms the use of the drug. However, in addition to raising costs and being impractical, it is of little 
use in the context of ophthalmic applications, since concentrations at the peripheral level could be 
undetectable; and samples from other tissues imply more invasive methods that would not be 
advisable. [41] 
Medication counting is another way to measure adherence. Classically referred to as "pill counting", 
in ophthalmology it is translated to the weight of the bottle. This is a simple, economical and non-
invasive method. The main disadvantages of this method are: 1. The application of the medication 
can not be confirmed (it could have been intentionally thrown or instilled out of the eye) and 2. It 
depends on the subject bringing back the medication. [41] [42] 
For the purposes of this study, the evaluation of the adherence will be favored by means of the diary 
of the subject, and will be carried out in the following way: 
𝐴𝑑= (𝐴𝑟)100/𝐴𝑖 
Ad = Adherence 
Ar = Registered applications 
Ai = Applications indicated for the intervention 
The final adhesion will be determined by the average of the adherence of each one of the visits. 
Overall adherence (all subjects) will be determined by the average final adherence of each of 
the subjects. 
6.3.3 Treatments and concomitant medications allowed and prohibited during the 
study. 
The use of concomitant medications by any route of administration during the intervention period 
will not be allowed. Except those specified for the study procedures. The objective of this restriction 
is to avoid pharmacological interactions that could alter the results of the evaluated variables. 
Nor is the use of herbal or naturist products, whose purpose is to modify some physiological function 
of the subject. 
6.3.4 Treatment management. 
The PIs will be provided by Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V. It will be the responsibility of the sponsor 
to select and ensure the logistic methods for the distribution of the medication. They will be labeled 
and reconciled. The handling of the treatment will be under the responsibility of the researcher or 
a designated member of his team. 
6.3.4.1 Delivery and reception. 
The delivery will be made through a courier service hired by the sponsor, specifically selected for 
this purpose, at the address of the research center according to the study plan.

The reception will be exclusively carried out by the non-blind staff of the research team. You must 
check the good condition of the primary packaging (box). In case it shows alterations or defects in 
its integrity that from its judgment could have damaged the content should report it to the sponsor. 
If the package does not show significant defects, it will proceed to open it.  
Inside you must locate the acknowledgment document and the logger (data logger) of temperature 
and humidity. You should check that the registered temperature and humidity comply with the 
specifications for transport and shelter (see section 6.3.4.2 Storage). Verify the content (PI) with 
what is reported in the document. In case the document corresponds to the content, it will sign the 
receipt and send it to the sponsor. Otherwise, notify the sponsor.   
6.3.4.2 Storage . 
Storage and safekeeping is the responsibility of the sponsor and the research center. The medication 
must be stored in a secure area with restricted access. 
The storage temperature should be 2 ° to 30 ° C. 
The research center has the obligation to record, in the designated format, the temperature 
recorded in the data logger, every day while the protocol is in force and has PIs. 
These data will be compared by the clinical monitor according to the registration in the data logger.    
6.3.4.3 Return. 
The return will be made by the research center when the sponsor indicates it. Prior to the return, 
the research center must make a count of the assigned medication and the remaining medication, 
with the aim of creating an inventory which serves for the final filling of the medication return form.

Version 1 
Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V.                                                                                                      Pag 33 of 69 
 
The following describes the methods and scales that will be used to measure the variables, which 
are in strict alphabetical order: 
6.4.3.1 Visual capacity. 
Visual acuity (VA) is a test of visual function. Spatial visual acuity is the ability to distinguish separate 
elements of an object and identify them as a whole. It is quantified as the minimum separation angle 
(located at the nodal point of the eye) between two objects that allows perceiving them as separate 
objects. 
The Snellen notation is described as the distance at which the test is performed, divided by the 
distance at which the letter is vertically equivalent to 5 arc minutes. Thus, at 6 meters a letter 6/6 
(20/20) equals 5 minutes of arc, a letter 6/12 (20/40) equals 10 minutes, and a letter 6/60 (20/200) 
equals 50 minutes The Snellen fraction can also be expressed as a decimal (ie 20/20 = 1 and 20/40 
= 0.5). [43]  
The VA will be evaluated basally, without refractive correction with the Snellen chart. Which will be 
located in a place with adequate lighting, natural or artificial and at a distance of 3m from the subject 
to be evaluated. The visual acuity of each eye will be taken, starting with a right eye (DO) asking the 
subject to keep both eyes open and using an occluder to cover the left eye (OS); the subject will 
read aloud the lines that the evaluator points out, the line of smaller letters that he reaches to see 
will be annotated by the fractional evaluator as the DO of the DO in the clinical file. Proceed to the 
OS with the same method. 
Subsequently the best refractive correction of the subject will be made and the examination will be 
repeated using the obtained refraction. This result will be reported as CV, it will be written in fraction 
in the clinical file and in the CRF, in addition in the CRF it will be written in decimal. By definition, 
the CV can not be inferior to the AV. 
6.4.3.2 Comprehensive ophthalmologic evaluation. 
It refers to the ophthalmological exploration of eyelids and appendages, anterior segment and 
posterior segment that is performed in a routine ophthalmologic review, whose procedures are not 
specifically included in the study variables. This evaluation has the purpose of identifying 
unexpected events. The evaluation of the posterior segment will be carried out under drug mydriasis 
(Tropicamide 0.8% / Phenylephrine 5%), in the slit lamp with an aerial loupe (at the choice of the 
IP). An integral assessment of the fundus (including optic disc, posterior pole and periphery) will be 
performed in search of abnormalities that alter the result of the study. The result of the assessment 
will be recorded in the clinical file. In the CRF it will be registered as normal, abnormal or abnormality 
that does not affect. 
6.4.3.3 Eye comfort index. 
It is a questionnaire designed to measure the irritation of the ocular surface with Rasch analysis to 
produce estimates on a linear scale of intervals (ratings: 0-100). Similar to the index for ocular 
surface diseases, the ocular comfort index (ICO) evaluates symptoms. The ICO contains items that 
focus on the discomfort associated with alterations of the ocular surface. Each of these questions 
has two parts, which inquire separately the frequency and severity of the symptoms. [44] See Annex 
Index of ocular confort 
The evaluator will deliver the questionnaire to the subject and allow the subject to answer it calmly 
without any pressure and / or coercion, will only assist him if he has difficulty understanding any of 
the questions.

6.4.3.4 Integrity of ocular surface:  
This will be done by means of biomicroscopy using the slit lamp of the research center. A full 
assessment of the previous segment will be made, which will be recorded in the clinical file. The 
lighting techniques used will be at the discretion of the IP. 
The variables that will be registered in this protocol are:  
- Conjunctival hyperemia. 
It is defined as the simplest reaction of the conjunctiva to a stimulus, a red appearance 
secondary to the vasodilation of the conjunctival vessels of variable intensity. He will 
graduate using the Efron scale. [45] See annex Efron scale for conjunctival hyperemia 
- Chemosis. 
It is defined as conjunctival edema, the result of an inflammatory reaction. It is qualified as 
present or absent. The assessor will use a narrow beam of light at 60 ° and will measure if 
the conjunctiva separates from the sclera by ≥ 1/3 of the total palpebral opening or if it 
exceeds the gray line. [46]  
6.4.3.4.1 
Stains . 
• Staining with green lysine. 
A drop of topical anesthetic will be instilled in the conjunctival cul-de-sac, then a second drop 
will be applied to the tip of the green lysine strip and it will be allowed to slide towards the 
bottom of the sac. It is essential to quickly evaluate the staining, in sequence, first in the OD 
and then the OS, so that the observed patterns are equally bright. [47] See annex Scale of 
Oxford 
• Fluorescein staining. 
A drop of topical anesthetic will be instilled in the conjunctival cul-de-sac, then a second drop 
will be applied to the tip of the fluorescein strip and it will be allowed to slide towards the 
bottom of the sac. It is essential to quickly evaluate the staining, in sequence, first in the OD 
and then the OS, so that the observed patterns are equally bright. This valuation will be done 
with the cobalt blue filter. [47] See annex Scale of Oxford. 
6.4.3.5 Presence of adverse events.  
The management of the EAs will be done according to what is described in the Adverse Events 
section 
The PI will register in the corresponding section of the CRF the EAs that come to present the subjects 
of the study in addition to referring it in the clinical file.  
6.4.3.6 Intraocular pressure. 
Tonometry is the objective measure of IOP, based primarily on the force required to flatten the 
cornea or the degree of corneal indentation produced by a fixed force. Goldman's tonometry is 
based on the Imbert-Fick principle. [43] Tonometry will be performed, after instillation of a drop of 
topical anesthetic (tetracaine 0.5%), with fluorescein and the use of the cobalt blue filter (after 
evaluation of corneal surface staining). There will be 3 shots, which will be recorded in the clinical 
file and the average will be registered in the CRF. 
6.4.3.7 Vital signs. 
The vital signs to be evaluated (FC, FR and TAS) can be measured by an assistant duly indicated in 
the organization of the center and the delegation of responsibilities, the technique to be used for 
the FC and FR will be with the count of repetitions in one minute by direct auscultation with 
stethoscope.

The SBP should be measured with 5 minutes of previous rest, in the left arm. The instrument can be 
manual or automatic according to the IP. It is necessary that all measurements are equal in 
circumstances. The PI will register in the note and the CRF. 
6.4.3.8 Laboratory tests. 
The designated personnel will perform the extraction of the blood sample, through venipuncture. 
The vein will be chosen at the discretion of the personnel in charge and will perform asepsis of the 
skin of the area to be punctured prior to the procedure. It will generate the order of the studies of 
BH, QS and PFH, to be carried out by the clinical laboratory designated by the sponsor. The clinical 
laboratory will deliver to the PI the results for its assessment and registration. The normal 
parameters to be considered will be the ranges established by the laboratory, with a lower and 
superior margin of 20% in a clinically healthy subject, at the discretion of the PI.

6.6 Sample size. 
A total size of 24 subjects is estimated, divided into 2 intervention groups. (12 subjects per group). 
A 45-day enrollment time is expected for the total sample. 
6.6.1 Calculation of the sample size. 
Although there are no references on the calculation of sample size in phase I studies, and the 
formulation of Krytantek Ofteno® has not reported serious adverse events in its periodic safety 
reports, it was considered pertinent to be based on the study by Baiza et al (2012 ). [24] 
The sample size was calculated using the formula for proportions

With a statistical confidence of 95% corresponding to the type I error, equal to 1.96, with a power 
of 80%, corresponding to the type II error, equal 0.84. We considered the presence of 3 adverse 
events (5.36%), after the use of a triple fixed combination (timolol + brimonidine + dorzolamide) 
compared to the presence of 5 adverse events (8.93%) of a double fixed combination (timolol, 
brimonidine) reported in a clinical trial to evaluate efficacy and safety with 112 Mexican subjects 
with primary open angle glaucoma and / or intraocular hypertension. [24] 
According to the previous calculation, the result is 8.12 subjects (8) per group. The total when 
considering 2 intervention groups is 16 subjects, which was increased by a percentage for the 
probable losses. The total sample size required is 24 subjects. Therefore, each group will consist of 
12 subjects, who will bring both eyes to the analysis (24 eyes per group).    
6.7 Recruitment . 
It is essential that, if necessary during the development of this research protocol, the principal 
investigator requests the approval of the Research Ethics Committee and the Research Committee, 
as well as the authorization of COFEPRIS, to publish or disseminate in the media. Mass 
communication, the invitation to participate in the study to those people who meet the selection 
criteria.  
It is possible to discuss with other health professionals the opportunity for healthy subjects to be 
evaluated by an ophthalmologist at no cost, as well as cabinet exams that will allow the more 
accurate determination of their ocular clinical status by participating in a sponsored clinical research 
protocol by Sophia Laboratories, S.A of C.V.

7. Methods. Assignment of the intervention 
7.1 Generation of the allocation sequence. 
Two strata corresponding to the intervention groups will be used, which will be balanced for a 
research center. The allocation will be 1: 1. The generation will be carried out by a third party, 
authorized by Sophia Laboratories, S.A of C.V., through its electronic system. The information 
corresponding to this third party will be found in the master folder of the study.  
7.2 Blinding mechanism. 
Blinding will be performed by the Clinical Operations Management of Sophia Laboratories, S.A of 
C.V. Which will consist in the elimination of the primary label (commercial) in the case of Krytantek 
Ofteno® and the placement of an identical label to the other interventions. Because the bottle in 
which Krytantek Ofteno® is packaged differs in the color and shape of the lid used for PRO-122, a 
masking will be made in the primary packaging which will be identical for the interventions. The 
subject will be determinedly prohibited from discussing with another person other than the 
pharmacist aspects related to the vial.  
7.3 Implementation  
The sequence will be generated by means of an electronic randomisation system. Said system will 
be hired by Sophia Laboratories, S.A of C.V. to a third party. The information corresponding to this 
third party will be found in the master folder of the study.  
7.4 Blinding (Masking). 
Blinding will correspond to the principal investigator and subinvestigator. In addition, the statistical 
analysis will be carried out in a blinded manner for the final analysis. Blinding can not be guaranteed 
in the subject. 
The masking will be done through the secondary container. The primary packaging will not be 
masked by the morphological difference between them. The sponsor and the research center will 
have two blind / non-blind teams. 
They will be identified by means of identical labels. Which, in accordance with current and applicable 
regulations, must contain at least: 
- 
Name, address and telephone number of the sponsor. 
- 
Pharmaceutical form and route of administration. 
- 
Lot Number. 
- 
Caption "Exclusively for clinical studies" 
- 
Date of Expiry 
7.4.1 Opening of blinding. 
Blinding may be opened in the following cases: 
1. Presence of a serious adverse event. 
2. Safety alarm due to the use of the drugs under study. 
3. In case the sponsor determines it for any reason of security or other reason that considers 
pertinent. 
4. In the event that the regulatory authority or the ethics committee so rightly requests so 
judging it necessary.

8. Methods. Collection, administration and data analysis. 
8.1 Methods of data collection. 
Clinical monitors will be assigned, who will be authorized to monitor, review, procure and ensure 
that the quality of the information obtained from the participants is reliable and trustworthy. Each 
monitor will schedule periodic visits to the research centers in order to review the source documents 
and corroborate the information captured in the case report format (CRF). All clinical monitors will 
be trained in relation to the information of the study protocol (objective, visits, procedures, range 
of accepted values, etc.). In case the data are not identical between the two registers, the clinical 
monitor will generate a discrepancy, which must be resolved by the research center at the time that 
the sponsor deems reasonable to meet the objectives of the clinical study. The correction of the 
discrepancies will be made according to the Good Documentation Practices.  
The data registered in the CRF will be reviewed by personnel of Sophia Laboratories, trained in the 
ophthalmological, clinical and pharmacological area, which will be able to generate discrepancies in 
the event that the data do not adhere to the stipulations of the research protocol or put participants 
at risk.  
Once all discrepancies generated by the team of clinical monitors and clinical staff have been 
resolved, the data will be downloaded into an electronic database (Excel Sheet) by personnel 
designated by the sponsor. A new revision of the data will be carried out to corroborate the fidelity 
of the same and new discrepancies may be generated in case it is considered as such.  
The database generated will be safeguarded by the sponsor and will only have personal access 
designated by the same. 
8.1.1 Strategies to complete the follow-up. 
• 
You will be informed in a clear way the importance of the study and the benefits that the 
population will obtain from the results of the study. 
• 
Transportation assistance will be provided in order for the participant to attend their visits. 
• 
Calls, messages or a printed calendar will be made in order to remind the participant of their 
appointments and the activities that will be carried out, in addition to the estimated time 
of the same. 
• 
In case the participant does not attend his / her appointment, the research center must 
make a call to know the reason and try to arrange a new appointment within the established 
window period or an unscheduled appointment. 
• 
In case it is not possible to make an appointment, it will be asked about the presence of 
adverse events and the reason for leaving the study, as minimum data. 
8.2 Data management. 
 
The subject's medical record (including clinical notes, test results, etc.), as well as the subject's diary, 
and the ICO questionnaire are considered source data. 
The PI or the designated person of your team will fill out the Case Report Format (CRF) as well as all 
other documents provided by the sponsor (for example, documents related to the handling of the 
treatment).

An electronic CRF was designed to record the data that are required in the protocol and that the 
researcher collects in each of the visits. This design is made by a third party, authorized by Sophia 
Laboratories, S.A of C.V., through its electronic system.  
In the case of self-assessment questionnaires, it is not allowed for the principal investigator or 
person responsible for filling in to modify what was written by the subject of the study. 
The data capture in the investigator's site will be done by the investigator or the designated person 
of his team after performing the Medical File. The researcher or a designated person of your team 
will be trained in filling the CRF. 
All corrections to the CRF data should be made by the investigator or the designated person of your 
team in accordance with the instructions provided. 
To ensure the confidentiality and security of the data, user names and access codes will be used to 
restrict access to the system only to authorized personnel. 
The monitor should ensure that all data has been filled in the CRF. After comparing the data against 
the source documents, the monitor will ask the researcher to make the correction / clarification 
using clarifications, so that they are answered and closed as quickly as possible. Once the verification 
by the monitor is finished, the data will be blocked to avoid modifications. 
The Clinical Team of Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V. will do the last medical and scientific review 
and, if necessary, the data is unblocked if necessary (request for clarification, opening of questions, 
etc.) and the freezing of the data is confirmed at the end of the study. 
 
8.3 Statistical methodology. 
8.3.1 Analysis of primary and secondary outcome variables. 
The statistical analysis will be carried out by personnel of Sophia Laboratories. The statistical 
program SPSS version 19.0 (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY, USA) will be used. 
The designated personnel will be blinded to the intervention groups. The coding will be done using 
consecutive numbers for each intervention group.  
The data will be collected and sorted in an excel sheet. Later they will be exported to the platform 
of the SPSS program. The variables will be categorized according to their nature. 
The results of the continuous quantitative variables will be presented in measures of central 
tendency: mean, standard deviation and ranges. See

The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test will be performed to determine if the distribution presents normality 
in the results obtained in each study group [48]. 
The statistical analysis of the continuous quantitative variables to find significant differences (p) will 
be the following:  
• 
• Intra-group analysis: will be determined by the Wilcoxon rank test, for quantitative 
variables  [49] 
• 
Inter-group analysis: Kruskal-Wallis test [50]. This non-parametric test will be used to test 
whether a group of data comes from the same population. Intuitively, it is identical to the

ANOVA with the data replaced by categories. For the quantitative variables, the student's t-
statistic will be used.   
The level of difference to consider significance will be an alpha of 0.05 or less. 
The result of nominal and ordinal qualitative variables will be presented in frequencies, proportions 
and percentages. See table 1 (section 6.4.3). 
The statistical analysis to identify significant differences of the qualitative variables will be done 
creating 2x2 contingency tables and it will be done in the following way:  
• 
Intra-group difference: McNemar test [51]. Which is applied to 2 × 2 contingency tables with 
a dichotomous trait, with pairs of matched subjects, to determine if the marginal 
frequencies of row and column are equal (marginal homogeneity). 
• 
Inter-group difference: Pearson's χ2 test (or Fisher's exact). 
The level of difference to consider significance will be an alpha of 0.05 or less. 
For the reporting of adverse events all eyes of those participants who were randomly assigned to 
an intervention group after the baseline visit will be considered. The results will be expressed in 
number of cases (eyes). 
The final report of the results will be shown in tables or graphs, as appropriate. 
It will be considered that the investigational drug is safe and tolerable when there are no clinical 
and statistical differences in all the variables of primary outcome, with respect to its comparators.  
Those subjects who comply with an adherence greater than 60% will be included in the statistical 
analysis to meet the objective of the study, taken from the subject's diary. It was considered that 
from the minimum dose necessary to obtain a pharmacological effect (hypotensive / 1 application 
per day) and the presence of adverse events (exposure) is sufficient to meet the overall design 
objective, according to the pharmacological characteristics of the product in investigation.  
8.3.2 Additional analyzes. 
No additional analyzes are contemplated to those previously described. However, these may be 
performed if during the conduction of the study it is required to analyze specific safety aspects of 
any intervention, maintaining the blinding until the end of the study.  
8.3.3 Population analysis and management of missing data. 
An intention-to-treat analysis will be carried out, where the data of the participants who have 
completed the Visit 1 will be included.

the ethical principles that have their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki and that are consistent with 
the Good Clinical Practices and with the applicable regulatory requirements. 
The researcher must ensure that they have sufficient time, space and qualified personnel for the 
monitoring visits. 
Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V. will monitor the study to verify, among other things, that: 
• 
The data is authentic, correct and complete. 
• 
They are protecting the security and rights of the subjects. 
• 
The study is being carried out in accordance with the currently approved protocol, any other 
study agreement, Good Clinical Practices and all applicable regulatory requirements. 
The details of the monitoring are documented in the Monitoring Plan (PM). The PM describes: the 
frequency and level of detail with which the monitoring will be performed, the activities to be 
carried out during the study according to its role (blind / non-blinded), the description of deviations 
from the protocol and its management.  
9.2 Adverse events. 
Perform the verification of adverse events through questioning, review of the information recorded 
in the journal of the subject, relevant physical examination, assessment of evolution, as well as the 
appropriate medical and pharmacological management, resolution or outcome and final discharge 
following the definitions determined in the national and international regulations. [67] [68] [69] 
In the event of adverse events or any event that puts the health and well-being of patients at risk, 
appropriate medical attention will be provided, either at the research site or referred to the Hospital 
Center with the greatest resolving power researcher and / or researcher site have medical care 
agreement. The researcher will notify the clinical monitor of the sponsor, according to the times 
established in the national and international regulations. In the case of serious adverse events, 
notify the sponsor and record the corresponding information in the case report form and in turn 
inform the Committee of Research Ethics, the Research Committee.  
The attention of the adverse events will be made according to the diagram of attention of the event 
(see Figure 5. Attention of the adverse event). 
In the final report that will be drafted by the Clinical Team of the Department of Clinical Operations 
of Sophia Laboratories, S.A. of C.V., will include the report of adverse events in compliance with 
current national and international regulations. [68] [67] 
If the research subject debuted during his participation in the study with an adverse event of a 
chronic course, such as diabetes or systemic arterial hypertension, he / she will be referred to the 
competent health professional for chronic treatment and we will adhere to the stipulations of the 
ICH for monitoring and ending their participation. 
 
9.2.1.1 Record of adverse events in the Case Report Form. 
The registry of adverse events considers the information about the identification data of the patient 
involved as code, age, sex, left eye and right eye. 
Information about the type of event that is adverse to the IP or to the study medication, as 
appropriate. The date on which the adverse event occurs is reported, as well as in which the 
Investigator is aware of it, date of resolution or outcome, as applicable. The clinical diagnosis is 
indicated. If a lack of therapeutic response to the IP and / or investigational medication is detected,

it must be reported as a serious adverse event within the period stipulated by current regulations. 
To include in concomitant medications the therapy used for the pharmacological management of 
the adverse event. Record the outcome or resolution of the event: patient recovered without 
sequelae, with sequelae, not recovered. Patient who presented death due to the adverse event, 
patient who presented death and it is judged that the drug could have contributed, patient who 
presented death and this is not related to the investigational product or medication, or indicate that 
it is not known what the consequence of the event is.  
Consign information about the product or drug under investigation or the drug associated with the 
adverse event, adverse reaction or suspected adverse reaction. As applicable, the information 
concerning generic name, distinctive denomination or code of the IP and / or investigational drug 
should be recorded, as appropriate according to the methodological design of the study, this is 
relevant in the case of blinded studies or those where placebo is used as comparators, since there 
are circumstances that justify opening the cecum to determine if the adverse event may be 
attributable to the active agent, the combination of active agents, or the pharmacologically inert 
substance (s), such as the vehicle or additives, as appropriate the clinical research phase in which 
the development of the drug is located. It will also be necessary to record the data concerning the 
batch number, manufacturer laboratory, expiration date, dosage, route of administration, start and 
end dates of administration and / or consumption, reason for the prescription; according to whether 
it is a product or drug under investigation (protocol in which the patient currently participates) or is 
a medicine that the subject in question consumes for the treatment of basic concomitant diseases 
or used for the management of any sign or transient symptom that does not correspond to the 
Natural History of the pathology that motivated its entry into the research protocol.  
Record the withdrawal or maintenance of the medication, IP or investigational medication, as 
appropriate. Indicate if the adverse event disappears when the IP or investigational medication or 
suspicious medication is removed (to provoke the event). Also indicate if a dose adjustment is made, 
if the event changes in terms of intensity or seriousness, persistence of the reaction. It is important 
to indicate that in those patients who are exposed again to the PI, investigational medication or 
medication, which had previously been suspended, if the adverse reaction or adverse event 
reappears.  
Regarding concomitant pharmacotherapy. Indicate the generic name, the dose, the route of 
administration, start and end dates of its use, as well as the reason for the prescription regardless if 
it is consistent with the information to prescribe or technical data sheet or is used outside the 
regulations or of what the local, national or international regulatory entity has authorized. 
 
Concerning the relevant clinical antecedents. The analysis of the adverse event considers the 
information previously reported, notwithstanding the clinical context in which this harmful 
phenomenon occurs in the participants of the clinical research protocol, it is of special interest, so 
that information about the previous conditions, phenomena of hypersensitivity or allergy, previous 
surgical procedures, laboratory analysis or cabinet examinations that have been practiced on the 
participant, etc., that the investigator deems fit to mention may do so. If you have enough space in 
the case report format, you can complete the information in your clinical note in the clinical file. 
9.2.1.2 Follow-up of adverse events. 
The PI will provide the attention and guidance of the EA that the participant presents until the 
outcome of the same, according to what is referred to the following section.

9.2.1.3 Procedures for a serious adverse event. 
The process of attention of the adverse event considers the following stages: 
 
 
 
 
Attention to the adverse event. 
 
1. During the development and conduct of the present clinical investigation, undesirable 
damaging events or adverse reactions, of medical involvement, which do not 
necessarily have a causal relationship with the IP or investigational medication, may 
occur in the participant patient. These harmful phenomena can occur during the use of 
investigational drugs, unintentionally, at doses authorized for use in humans; by a local, 
national or international regulatory entity, whether for prophylaxis, diagnosis, 
treatment or for the modification of some physiological process. However, it can be 
suspected that the IP or the investigational drug or the placebo cause some unwanted 
clinical manifestation. Adverse events, adverse reactions or suspected adverse 
reactions to one or several medications can occur during the systematic evaluation of 
the participants (on the days when the clinical review is scheduled, according to the 
schedule of activities) or suddenly, as such way that; 
2. The investigator must be the first person to whom the patient reports that they have 
developed or presented a harmful clinical phenomenon during their participation in this 
research protocol.

3. According to your clinical judgment; on the basis of the pertinent physical examination, 
questioning, etc., as well as the analysis of the information available in the medical 
literature and of what is referred to in the researcher's manual, information to prescribe 
or technical record of the comparator drug, the principal investigator determines the 
relevant attention of the event / harmful reaction; either,   
4. At the research site or at the hospital with the greatest resolving power (1st, 2nd or 3rd 
level of medical attention). In such a way that, in case the patient is sent by the 
Investigator to a hospital, he / she attends by means of a reference system, it can be 
with an identification card that the patient belongs to the present investigation and 
there is an official number or folio, which pertains to the emergency care agreement 
with the health institution with the greatest resolving power, or a medical reference 
note issued by the principal investigator, so that appropriate attention is given to the 
participating patient.  It should be noted that the Study Sponsor, Sophia Laboratories, 
S.A. of C.V., will pay the expenses for the medical attention of the participant patient, 
only if the adverse event is associated or is in relation to the IP or investigational 
medication. 
5. Taking the collected clinical information, either during the care provided in the research 
site or provided by the treating physician (s) in the hospital, the principal investigator 
records the adverse event in his / her clinical note of the file clinical setting, indicating 
the seriousness, intensity (mild, moderate or severe), relationship with the 
investigational product or drug, as well as,  
6. The migration of the relevant data to the case report format and to its respective 
adverse event section; noting the pertinent information, already referred to in section 
9.3.1.1., in virtue of the fact that in cases of serious adverse events, which must be 
notified in less than 24 hours after the moment in which the principal investigator has 
knowledge of the same, the clinical monitor of the study is informed, so that in turn it 
informs the Clinical Team and the Pharmacovigilance Department of the sponsor and 
later it is informed to the Committee of Ethics in Research. With respect to non-serious 
adverse events, these will be recorded and adequately addressed and the 
corresponding regulatory entity will be informed about the safety profile of the IP or 
investigational medication in the final report of the clinical trial. 
The record of the outcome of the adverse event depends substantially on the follow-up that the 
principal investigator makes to the participant, since it is expected that the majority of harmful 
phenomena, consult section of the safety profile in number 5.3 and in the researcher's manual, are 
of a nature ophthalmic, however, there may be systemic alterations. Therefore, in the opinion of 
the researcher, the withdrawal of the participant or his / her permanence will be considered, 
according to what is stipulated in section 6.2.1.2 Exclusion criteria of the present research protocol. 
 
 
9.2.1.4 Causality assessment. 
The assessment of causality, the methodology used to estimate the probability of attributing a drug, 
investigational drug or IP to the observed adverse event, considers probabilistic categories, 
according to the available evidence and the quality of the information, based on the national 
pharmacovigilance regulations. [67] As a tool to facilitate the probabilistic categorization of 
causality, the department of pharmacovigilance and tegno-vigilance of Laboratorios Sophia (UFTLS) 
can use the algorithm of Karch and Lasagna modified by Naranjo referred to by Aramendi I, 2011 in

In such a way that the degree of certainty to establish the IP or investigational medication (as 
appropriate) as the causal agent of the harmful phenomenon that happens to the participating 
patient, can be indicated directly by the principal investigator based on his clinical experience or 
through the voluntary application of the tool mentioned previously. Notwithstanding, it is important 
that the researcher and the UFTLS take into account the following arguments in favor of the causal 
relationship:  
a) Strength of association that refers to the number of cases in relation to those exposed. 
b) The consistency of the data, ie the presence of a common characteristic or pattern. 
c) The exposure-effect pattern: which determines the relationship with the site of onset, 
time, dose and reversibility after suppression.

the relationship with the researcher and / or future assistance. The informed consent will be put to 
the consideration of the possible participant; this must have enough time to analyze each and every 
one of the aspects mentioned above and if there is any doubt this will be clarified by the person in 
charge of obtaining the informed consent.  
Once the participant agrees to participate in the study, he / she must sign and date the letter of 
informed consent in the presence of two witnesses who have or are not related to the subject of 
the study, who will participate during the informed consent process and will sign endorse that the 
process was carried out prior to any study procedure, that the study information was clearly 
explained and doubts were clarified in case of existing. 
If a subject is illiterate, the acceptance will be with their fingerprint, and in the event that the subject 
is not able to grant an informed written consent, a representative of the subject "legally authorized" 
can provide such consent, the subject in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. 
The PI must also sign and date this consent. 
The informed consent must be signed in duplicate by all involved, and two witnesses, one copy will 
be filed in the researcher's folder and the other will be delivered to the participant. The PI or 
delegated personnel, must document the process of obtaining the Informed Consent by means of a 
detailed medical note, where the signed version is specified, the date on which the document was 
signed and how the process was carried out. 
10.4.2 Special considerations. 
The auxiliary studies that will be carried out during the conduction of the study (laboratory tests) do 
not pose an additional risk that should be considered apart from the procedures listed in the 
informed consent.

Any change to "informed consent" constitutes an amendment to this document and must be 
presented for approval before the Ethics in Research Committees, and if applicable before the 
Competent Authorities. 
The amendment will include a copy of the new version in the language or languages of the country. 
Such amendments may be implemented only after having obtained the written approval of the 
Research Ethics Committee and the Regulatory Entity (as applicable), with the exception of an 
amendment that is required to eliminate an immediate danger for the subjects of the study. 
Each subject affected by the amendment must complete, date and sign two originals of the new 
version. The subject will be given a signed original of the amendment and the researcher will keep 
the second original. 
In the event that new information may arise that may be relevant to the subject's decision to 
continue participating in the study, this information should be communicated in a timely manner to 
the latter. This information will be provided through an amendment to the informed consent, which 
must be completed, dated and signed in duplicate through a process of re-consent.
