Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 40 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Adult patients (40-90 years) with primary open-angle glaucoma, ocular hypertension, or healthy controls, recruited at the Glaucoma Unit, Fondazione Policlinico Universitario A. Gemelli IRCCS.

Who may be able to join

  • Age between 40 and 90 years.
  • Best-corrected visual acuity ≥ 0.1 LogMAR (≥ 8/10).
  • For primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG):
  • IOP ≥ 21 mmHg with normal visual field and/or normal optic nerve head/RNFL, or
  • Suspicious optic nerve head (excavation), or
  • Reproducible glaucomatous visual field defect.
  • POAG patients stratified by visual field mean deviation (MD): -3 to -10 dB (S1-S2 Brusini classification).

Who cannot join

  • Best-corrected visual acuity worse than 0.1 LogMAR (< 8/10).
  • Ocular surgery in the last 6 months (except uncomplicated cataract extraction).
  • Previous vitreoretinal surgery for macular pathologies (e.g., macular pucker, macular hole) or retinal detachment.
  • High myopia (> -3 diopters).
  • Optic disc anomalies not attributable to glaucoma (tilted disc, papillary drusen, other morphological/functional anomalies).
  • Severe motor disability preventing proper positioning for tests.
  • Cognitive impairment reducing test reliability.

About this study

Official title: New Diagnostic Paradigms for the Identification of Early Glaucomatous Damage

This observational study aims to identify early diagnostic markers of glaucomatous damage by combining functional and structural assessments. Patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension will undergo comprehensive ophthalmological evaluation, including visual field testing and multimodal imaging of the optic nerve and retina. Both retrospective and prospective data will be collected. The main objective is to define new diagnostic paradigms for detecting early glaucomatous changes and to improve the accuracy of current clinical practice in glaucoma management.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of early glaucomatous damage detected by multimodal imaging

    Evaluation of structural parameters from OCT and OCTA and functional indices from visual field testing to detect early glaucomatous damage in ocular hypertensive and glaucoma patients.

    Measured: Baseline to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Correlation between OCT structural parameters and visual field indices

    Analysis of the association between RNFL/GCC thickness and visual field MD, PSD, and other indices.

    Measured: Baseline to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Glaucoma Open-Angle Primary and Ocular Hypertension, run by Fondazione Policlinico Universitario Agostino Gemelli IRCCS.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Prevalence of early glaucomatous damage detected by multimodal imaging (time frame: Baseline to 24 months). 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 7 Oct 2025.
