A Phase 3 trial evaluated the travoprost intraocular implant's safety and efficacy for open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The trial compared fast-eluting and slow-eluting implants to timolol drops in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP).
Both implant models achieved significant IOP reductions of 6.6 to 8.5 mmHg, comparable to timolol's 6.5 to 7.7 mmHg.
Adverse events were more common in implant groups, with iritis and ocular hyperemia being the most frequent.
The trial is ongoing to assess long-term efficacy and safety data after 3 years.
