Brief summary

The study evaluated the safety and IOP-lowering effects of WB007 in adults with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes. This was a 2-part study. Part 1 was a 3-period dose escalation that evaluated 3 concentrations of WB007 ophthalmic solution following a single dose in one eye. Part 2 was a randomized, double-masked, parallel comparison that evaluated two concentrations of WB007 (selected based on Part 1 results) in both eyes compared with timolol 0.5% for 14 days.

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Part 2: Mean Change From Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Day 14 - Study EyeBaseline, Day 14IOP is a measurement of the pressure inside the eye and was measured using Goldmann applanation tonometry. Study participants used the study medications in both eyes for 14 days. One eye was designated as the Study Eye at baseline: eyes that met inclusion and exclusion criteria. If both eyes were eligible, the study eye was the eye with higher IOP at Baseline at Hour 0. If both eyes had the same IOP at this timepoint, the right eye was designated as the study eye. IOP was measured at Baseline and Day 14 at Hours 0, 2, 4 and 8. The primary endpoint was the mean change from baseline IOP at Day 14, Hour 2, the timepoint of the peak effect of timolol.

Part 2: Mean IOP at Day 14 - Study Eye

IOP is a measurement of the pressure inside the eye and was measured using Goldmann applanation tonometry. Study participants used the study medications in both eyes for 14 days. One eye was designated as the Study Eye at baseline: eyes that met inclusion and exclusion criteria. If both eyes were eligible, the study eye was the eye with higher IOP at Baseline at Hour 0. If both eyes had the same IOP at this timepoint, the right eye was designated as the study eye. IOP was measured at Baseline and Day 14 at Hours 0, 2, 4 and 8. The primary timepoint was at Day 14, Hour 2, the timepoint of the peak effect of timolol.
