A Study to Evaluate Adverse Events and Change in Disease Activity With the XEN45 Glaucoma Treatment System Implantation In Adult Participants With Open-Angle Glaucoma in China

Glaucoma is the second most common cause of blindness in the world, second only to cataracts. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events (AEs) and changes in disease activity in participants with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) receiving the XEN45 Glaucoma Treatment System (XEN45).

XEN45 is an approved device for the treatment of OAG in participants in China who have not achieved satisfactory effectiveness with or are not suitable for intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering medication, laser surgery, or are not tolerant of traditional filtration surgery. Adult participants with a diagnosis of OAG will be randomized to receive either XEN 45 or trabeculectomy. Around 130 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 15 sites in China.

Participants will receive XEN45 implanted using the ab interno approach or trabeculectomy on Day 1 and will be followed for 60 months

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Area of healthy, free, and mobile conjunctiva in the target area in the study eye, i.e., superior bulbar conjunctiva.
  • Visible trabecular meshwork with Shaffer angle grade => 3 in the study eye at the Screening Visit.
  • IOP => 20 mm Hg and <= 44 mm Hg for the study eye, measured by Goldmann applanation tonometer, at the Screening Visit and Baseline Visit.

Exclusion criteria

  • Active neovascular, uveitic, or angle-recession glaucoma or any glaucoma-associated vascular disorders within 6 months of the Screening Visit in the study eye.
  • Prior XEN45, transscleral cycloablative procedures (such as cyclophotocoagulation, micropulse cyclophotocoagulation, cryotherapy, ultrasonic circular cyclocoagulation [UC3], etc.) or prior major conjunctival surgery (i.e., scleral buckle) in the study eye.

Primary outcomes

  1. Change from Baseline in Intraocular Pressure (IOP)

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the study eye. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement and a positive change from baseline indicates a worsening.

  2. Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 60

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants with Treatment Response of Achieving => 20% IOP Reduction

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    Treatment response is defined as IOP reduction on the same or fewer number of topical IOP-lowering medications without secondary surgical intervention (SSI) for uncontrolled IOP.

  2. Change from Baseline in IOP by Visit

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    IOP is a measurement of the fluid pressure inside the study eye. A negative change from baseline indicates an improvement and a positive change from baseline indicates a worsening.

  3. Change from Baseline in Number of Topical IOP-Lowering Medications

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    A numerical count by class of drug of topical IOP lowering medications being taken.

  4. Percentage of Participants Achieving IOP <= 18 mm Hg and => 20% mean IOP reduction from Baseline Without Topical IOP-lowering Medications

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    The complete treatment response is defined as the percentage of participants achieving IOP <=18 mm Hg and 20% or more reduction of IOP without topical IOP medications from baseline.

  5. Percentage of Participants Achieving IOP <= 18 mm Hg and => 20% mean IOP Reduction from Baseline With Any Topical IOP-Lowering Medications

    Time frame: Baseline to Month 12

    The qualified treatment response is defined as the percentage of participants achieving IOP <= 18 mm Hg and 20% mean IOP reduction from baseline with any topical IOP-lowering medications.
