NCT00486486

Brief Summary

The objective of this crossover, randomized, placebo controlled, double-masked study is to compare the short-term (12 weeks) mean 24-hour IOP control and safety of the new fixed combination (bimatoprost/timolol, BTFC) given PM with placebo once in the morning, versus BTFC given AM with placebo once in the evening versus bimatoprost given in the evening in patients with exfoliative glaucoma (XFG).

Eligibility Criteria

Age39 Years - 81 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • The patient is suffering from XFG (if the patient has bilateral XFG, both eyes will be treated, but the worse eye will be selected for the statistical analysis)
  • Patient is older than 39 years and younger than 85 years
  • Patient is able and willing to participate in the study for the whole duration of the follow up. Will sign the consent form.
  • At screening the untreated IOP at 10:00 (± 1 hr) is greater than 25 mm Hg and lower than 40 mm Hg
  • After bimatoprost run-in therapy the treated IOP at 10:00 (± 1 hr) is greater than 19 mm Hg
