Brief summary

This is a phase 3 study to confirm the efficacy in reduction of intraocular pressure and safety of PHP-201 ophthalmic solution in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Detailed description

As a selective ROCK inhibitor, PHP-201 is designed to alleviate the side effects, which are the disadvantages of existing intraocular pressure reducing agents, while exhibiting sufficient intraocular pressure-lowering effect in glaucoma patients. This clinical trial aims to provide a new therapeutic option by evaluating the efficacy and safety of PHP-201 0.5% in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who require intraocular pressure reduction therapy.
