Clinical trials

The European Union Clinical Trials Register   allows you to search for protocol and results information on:
  • interventional clinical trials that were approved in the European Union (EU)/European Economic Area (EEA) under the Clinical Trials Directive 2001/20/EC
  • clinical trials conducted outside the EU/EEA that are linked to European paediatric-medicine development

  • EU/EEA interventional clinical trials approved under or transitioned to the Clinical Trial Regulation 536/2014 are publicly accessible through the
    Clinical Trials Information System (CTIS).


    The EU Clinical Trials Register currently displays   43865   clinical trials with a EudraCT protocol, of which   7286   are clinical trials conducted with subjects less than 18 years old.   The register also displays information on   18700   older paediatric trials (in scope of Article 45 of the Paediatric Regulation (EC) No 1901/2006).

    Phase 1 trials conducted solely on adults and that are not part of an agreed paediatric investigation plan (PIP) are not publicly available (see Frequently Asked Questions ).

    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and tolerability of TRAVATAN® Solution without BAK, containing Polyquad® Preservative versus LUMIGAN® 0.01% Solution with BAK in treatment naïve patients with ocular hypertension or open angle glaucoma.
    Protection of trial subjects
    This study was performed in compliance with the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Clinical Practice (GCP). An Ethics Committee reviewed and approved (for use in this study) informed consent form was read, signed, and dated by the participating patient, as well as signed and dated by the individual (Principal Investigator or other site personnel) obtaining the informed consent, before conducting the Screening Visit and prior to initiation of study procedures.

    Mean Change from Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Month 6
    End point description
    IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was assessed using Goldmann applanation tonometry and measured in millimeters mercury (mmHg). A more negative change indicates a greater amount of improvement. One eye was chosen as the study eye, and only data from the study eye were used for the analysis. This analysis population includes all randomized subjects who received at least one dose of either study treatment and had at least one post-baseline on-therapy study visit. Here, n=the number of subjects with non-missing values at the specific timepoint for each arm group respectively.

    Adverse events information [1]
    Timeframe for reporting adverse events
    Adverse events were collected for the duration of the study (September 2012 to June 2014). This analysis population includes all subjects who received at least one dose of either study treatment.
    Adverse event reporting additional description
    An Adverse Event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient who is administered a study treatment regardless of whether or not the event has a causal relationship with the treatment. AEs were obtained as both volunteered and elicited comments from the study subjects.

    Notes
    [1] - There are no non-serious adverse events recorded for these results. It is expected that there will be at least one non-serious adverse event reported.
    Justification: There were no non-serious adverse events occurring above a threshold of 5% in either arm in this study.
