Registered outcomes2

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Intraocular Pressure From Baseline at Visit 3Two 24-hour visits: Baseline/Visit 2; Up to week 4/Visit 3
Subjects will be enrolled at the first visit. Patients already on latanoprost may proceed immediately with the second visit. Patients on a different prostaglandin analog medication will be switched to latanoprost for at least 6 weeks. At second visit, intraocular pressure and blood pressure will be measured every 2 hours for a 24-hour period. At any point over the next 4 weeks, another 24-hour visit will be performed. This time, a dose of pilocarpine 2% will be administered at 4 different times in addition to the latanoprost . As before, intraocular pressure and blood pressure will be measured every 2 hours. After visit 3, subjects will return to their prior treatment regimen. Change in the intraocular pressure from the second and the third visit will be determined. 8 diurnal readings and 4 nocturnal readings were averaged separately during both Visit 2 for the PGA Monotherapy and Visit 3 for Pilocarpine+PGA
SecondaryChange in Ocular Perfusion PressureTwo 24-hour visits: Baseline/Visit 2; Up to week 4/Visit 3
Ocular perfusion pressure will calculated from the intraocular pressure and blood pressure measurements. At Baseline/Visit 2, intraocular pressure and blood pressure will be measured every 2 hours for a 24-hour period. At any point over the next 4 weeks, another 24-hour visit (Visit 3) will be performed. This time, a dose of pilocarpine 2% will be administered at 4 different times in addition to the latanoprost (PGA monotherapy). As before, intraocular pressure and blood pressure will be measured every 2 hours. 8 diurnal readings and 4 nocturnal readings were averaged separately during both Visit 2 for the PGA Monotherapy and Visit 3 for Pilocarpine+PGA
