Safety and Tolerability of a Timolol Releasing Intraocular Implant in Subjects With Primary Open-angle Glaucoma

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test a new method to deliver an approved medicine called Timolol in the eye of participants with glaucoma and pseudophakia (currently present or to be performed during the concomitant implantation surgery in subjects with age-related cataract eligible to intra-capsular IOL placement). The main questions it aims to answer are how safe the investigational drug is and how the body tolerates it. The study will also check:
- how safely the implant is placed in and removed from the eye and how the body responds to the procedure,
- how safe different doses of timolol are and how the body handles taking it,
- the amount of Timolol released in the bloodstream,
- if there is any positive effect on the pressure inside the eye.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Number and proportion of participants experiencing one or more serious adverse events (SAEs)
From screening visit (up to Day -41) to end of study (Week 108)
Number and proportion of participants experiencing one or more treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) overall and by dose group
From screening visit (up to Day -41) to end of study (Week 108)
Study Arms (3)
Group 1: TimoD implant-Dose 1 (low dose)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in the Group 1 will receive a low dose of TimoD implant in the study eye on Day 1.
Group 2: TimoD implant-Dose 2 (intermediate dose)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in Group 2 will receive an intermediate dose of TimoD implant in the study eye on Day 1 if all participants in Group 1 have completed a 4-week treatment period with the lowest dose of TimoD implant, providing there are no safety issues in Group 1.
Group3: TimoD implant-Dose 3 (high dose)
EXPERIMENTALParticipants in Group 3 will receive a high dose of TimoD implant in the study eye on Day 1 if all participants in Group 2 have completed a 4-week treatment period with the intermediate dose, providing there are no safety issues in Group 2.
Interventions
Consists of 1 TimoD implant administration in the study eye
This is a CE-marked injector intended for intraocular lens (IOL) delivery. In this study, the injector is used as an"intraocular implant injection system" outside of its scope of intended use.

- Clinically proven diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in the previous 12 months.
- Subjects with IOP not adequately controlled with the standard medication.
- Pseudophakia.
You may not qualify if:
- Concomitant treatment with timolol (systemic), corticosteroids, cytochrome P450 2D6 inhibitors, or α2-agonists.
- Subjects with a history of hypersensitivity or contraindications to β-blockers.
- Significant risks caused by washout of ocular hypotensive medications.
- History of any glaucoma not specified as POAG.
