Brief summary
To compare intraocular pressure lowering effectiveness of a new fixed combination drug.
Detailed description
This is a multicentric, double blind and prospective clinical study. We will include patients with confirmed diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma and/or ocular hypertension, with intraocular pressure (IOP) ranging between 21 and 31 mm Hg. Patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, one of them treated with a new formulation of 0.5% timolol-0.2% brimonidine-2% dorzolamide in fixed combination (Krytantek Ofteno®, Laboratorios Sophia, Mexico) and the other one treated with 0.5% timolol-2% dorzolamide fixed combination (Cosopt®, MSD Laboratories, USA). Patients will receive 1 drop twice a day of either formulations and were examined at days 2, 7, 15, 30, 60, and 90 after initiation of treatment. The primary objective is to compare the efficacy of both formulations, estimated as a decrease in IOP. A Goldmann applanation tonometer will be used for IOP determination.
Interventions
Patients will be randomly divided into 2 groups, one of them treated with a new formulation of 0.5% timolol-0.2% brimonidine-2% dorzolamide in fixed combination (Krytantek Ofteno®, Laboratorios Sophia, Mexico) and the other one treated with 0.5% timolol-2% dorzolamide fixed combination (Cosopt®, MSD Laboratories, USA). Patients will received 1 drop twice a day of either formulations.

Time frame: basal (day 1 ) and final (day 60)
Population: the analysis of the groups was by protocol
| Arm | Measure | Group | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A (Triple Therapy) | Intraocular Pressure (IOP) | baseline | 24.1 mmHg | Standard Deviation 2.6 |
| A (Triple Therapy) | Intraocular Pressure (IOP) | Final | 13.9 mmHg | Standard Deviation 2.9 |
| B (Doble Therapy) | Intraocular Pressure (IOP) | baseline | 23.6 mmHg | Standard Deviation 2.2 |
| B (Doble Therapy) | Intraocular Pressure (IOP) | Final | 16.9 mmHg | Standard Deviation 3.4 |
Number of Adverse Events
