Brief summary
This is a randomized, double-blind, two-treatment, single-period, parallel design, multiple dose at multiple clinical trial sites designed to demonstrate bioequivalence with clinical endpoint in subjects with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes. Test Product - Bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, 0.01% of Amneal EU, Limited Reference Product - LUMIGAN® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.01% of Allergan, Inc.
Detailed description
Subjects with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both the eyes and meeting all the mentioned inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be identified. At baseline (Day 0), subjects qualifying Intra Ocular Pressure (IOPs) following wash-out, with difference between the IOP in left and right eyes not being more than 5 mm Hg, will be randomized. Subjects will instill 1 drop of study drug (either T or R) in both eyes every evening at approximately 10:00 pm for 42 days. The study subjects will undergo clinical evaluations throughout the study in order to assess safety and efficacy. Primary endpoint evaluation will be assessed after 2 weeks (Day 14) and 6 weeks (Day 42) of treatment for each study subject deemed eligible for evaluation. The primary bioequivalence comparison is between the test and reference products for the mean difference in intraocular pressure (IOP) of both eyes between the two treatment groups.
Interventions
Subjects in one arm will receive one drop of the test drug in both the eyes every evening at approximately 10:00 pm ± 1 hour for 42 days.
Subjects in the other arm will receive one drop of the reference drug in both the eyes every evening at approximately 10:00 pm for 42 days.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Subjects willing and able to provide voluntary informed consent and to follow protocol requirements. * Male or females aged ≥18 years. * Subjects having body mass index (BMI) ≥18.50 kg/m2. * Subjects with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension in both eyes. * Subjects requiring treatment of both eyes and able to discontinue the use of all ocular hypotensive medication(s) or switch ocular hypotensive medications and undergo appropriate washout period. * Adequate washout period prior to baseline of any ocular hypotensive medications as per the table below (to minimize potential risk to subjects due to intraocular pressure (IOP) elevations during the washout period, the Investigator may choose to substitute a parasympathomimetic or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor in place of a sympathomimetic, alpha-agonist, beta-adrenergic blocking agent, or prostaglandin; however, all the subjects must have discontinued their ocular hypotensive medications for the minimum washout period. * Baseline (Day 0/hour 0) IOP ≥22 mm Hg and \<35 mm Hg in each eye, * Subjects' IOP is likely to be controlled with monotherapy as per the Investigator's discretion. * Baseline best corrected visual acuity equivalent to Snellen acuity of 20/100 or better in each eye, using a logarithmic visual acuity chart for testing at 10 feet (3 meters). * Women of childbearing potential (defined as women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant unless they are using an effective method of contraception during the dosing of the study drug) practicing any of the following acceptable methods of contraception: 1. Oral or parenteral (injection, patch, or implant) hormonal contraception which has been continuously used for at least 1 month prior to first dose of study medication 2. Intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS) 3. Double barrier method of contraception (condom and occlusive cap or condom and spermicidal agent) 4. Male sterilization (at least 6 months prior to screening, should be the sole male partner for that subject) 5. Female sterilization (surgical bilateral oophorectomy) or tubal ligation at least 6 weeks prior to study participation 6. Total abstinence; partial abstinence is not acceptable * No history of addiction to any recreational drug or drug dependence or alcohol addiction.
Exclusion criteria
* Female who are pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy. * Contraindication or known hypersensitivity to Bimatoprost, related class of drugs, or any of the excipients of formulation. * Current or past history of severe hepatic or renal impairment. * Current or history within 2 months prior to baseline of any other significant ocular disease, e.g., corneal edema, uveitis, ocular infection, or ocular trauma in either eye (Note: stable myopia, strabismus, and cataracts as per the Investigator's discretion will be allowed provided that the other inclusion/
