Primary study designInterventional
Secondary study designRandomised controlled trial
Study setting(s)Hospital
Study typeTreatment
Scientific titleComparative trial of a 0.5% timolol-2% dorzolamide-0.2% brimonidine solution in fixed combination versus Cosopt® in open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension
Study acronymKOEG
Study objectivesThe hypotensive effect of 0.5% timolol-2% dorzolamide-0.2% brimonidine fixed combination is different from that of Cosopt® in patients with diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and/or ocular hypertension with or without pseudoexfoliation.
Ethics approval(s)Ethics Committee of the Institute of Ophthalmology, Hospital La Carlota (Intituto de Oftalmologia Hospital La Carlota), gave approval on the 27th November 2006
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedPrimary open-angle glaucoma, ocular hypertension
InterventionAccording to a random chart, 50 patients will receive over each eye one drop of a topical ophthalmic solution composed of timolol 0.5%, dorzolamide 2% and brimonidine 0.2% in a fixed-combination formula developed by Laboratorios Sophia S.A. de C.V. every 12 hours. The other 50 patients will be administered one drop of Cosopt® over each eye every 12 hours. Both medications will be administered during a period of 90 days. All the study articles will be labeled with a non-consecutive code number that is randomly generated by a computer.
