Glaucoma clinical trials at UCSD

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases, which in most cases produce increased pressure within the eye (intraocular pressure or IOP). Over time, the elevated IOP causes damage to the optic nerve, which can then lead to visual loss and if unchecked, to complete blindness over the course of years. OMT has been shown to affect cranial structure physiology including the possibility of lowering IOP by improving the drainage of intraocular fluid. This randomized study is designed to obtain data to evaluate the effect of OMT on IOP lowering and, if supportive, provide preliminary data for larger clinical trials.

This study will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Bimatoprost Sustained Release (SR) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who completed 1 of the 4 Phase 3 Bimatoprost SR studies (192024-091, -092, -093, or -095) and received Bimatoprost SR or who received commercial DURYSTA (Bimatoprost SR) in the open-label Phase 4 ARGOS study (MED-MA-EYE-0648) and completed (or exited early from) the study.
