  • Participation in any investigational study within the past 30 days.
  • Changes of systemic medication during the study that could have a substantial effect on IOP within 30 days prior to screening, or anticipated during the study.
  • Due to status of preclinical safety program, women of childbearing potential who are pregnant, nursing, planning a pregnancy, or not using a medically acceptable form of birth control. An adult woman is considered to be of childbearing potential unless she is one year post-menopausal or three months post-surgical sterilization. All females of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test result at the screening examination and must not intend to become pregnant during the study.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Double-masked, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Dose-response Study Assessing the Safety and Ocular Hypotensive Efficacy of Three Doses of AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution in Patients With Elevated Intraocular Pressure

In this double-masked, vehicle-controlled, dose-response study, subjects will be randomized to receive AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution 0.01%, 0.02%, and 0.04% or its vehicle (one eye), once daily (QD)in the morning (AM) for 7 days. The first dose and last dose will be administered in the clinic. Ocular safety and ocular hypotensive efficacy will be evaluated in the clinic throughout the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Intraocular Pressure (IOP)

    The primary efficacy outcome was the mean IOP across subjects within treatment group at each post-treatment timepoint of Day 8.

    Instillation of study treatment commenced on Day 2 following measurement of IOP. IOP was measured at 0800, 1000, 1200 and 1600 hours on days 2 and 8. IOP was also measured at 0800 hours on Day 4.

    Measured: Study treatment was administered for 7 days; starting on Day 2 and ending on Day 8.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution 0.01%, AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution 0.02% and AR-13324 Ophthalmic Solution 0.04% in people with Ocular Hypertension and Open Angle Glaucoma, run by Aerie Pharmaceuticals at 11 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Feb 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Intraocular Pressure (IOP) (time frame: Study treatment was administered for 7 days; starting on Day 2 and ending on Day 8.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Apr 2018.
