Rocklatan added after DSLT for open-angle glaucoma
Official title: Outcomes of Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty With the Post-treatment Addition of Combination Netarsudil and Latanoprost vs Latanoprost Monotherapy
Run by Eye Centers of Southeast Texas · NCT07465913 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether adding Rocklatan to latanoprost after a laser treatment helps lower eye pressure more than latanoprost alone in people with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with mild to moderate bilateral POAG/OAG on three glaucoma medications (one must be a prostaglandin analog) and suitable post-DSLT IOP levels.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not respond to either Rocklatan or latanoprost after DSLT, or who do not meet washout/IOP criteria, may not benefit.

What this trial studies
This is a randomized, double-masked study conducted at a single site to compare two treatment strategies after Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT). Participants receive either the combination eye drop Rocklatan plus latanoprost or latanoprost alone, with outcomes measured mainly by changes in diurnal intraocular pressure. Key visits occur at screening/DSLT, a post-washout baseline, and a follow-up at week 12, including IOP measurements, visual field, and OCT imaging. The study enrollment targets adults with bilateral mild to moderate POAG or OAG who are on three glaucoma medications at screening and have suitable IOP after DSLT and washout.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, patients may experience greater reduction in daily eye pressure, potentially slowing glaucoma progression.
How similar studies have gone: Randomized trials in glaucoma have shown that combination therapies can provide additional IOP lowering; this specific post-DSLT combination approach is novel but builds on established therapies.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Adults (≥18 years) with a diagnosis of mild to moderate bilateral primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) or open-angle glaucoma (OAG). * On 3 topical glaucoma medications at screening, one of which must be a prostaglandin analog. * Post-DSLT and post-washout, baseline intraocular pressure (IOP) 16-36 mmHg in both eyes. * Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ≥20/60 in both eyes. * Ability and willingness to provide informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Ocular hypertension only (no glaucomatous damage). * Inability or medical ineligibility for washout of ocular hypotensive medications. * Prior selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) within 12 months of screening. * History of glaucoma surgery (trabeculectomy, tube shunt, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery \[MIGS\] affecting outflow). * Narrow or closed angles with gonioscopy (Shaffer grading ≤2). * Active ocular infection, uveitis, or severe dry eye. * Corneal pathology interfering with IOP measurement. * Advanced glaucoma (threat to fixation). * Known hypersensitivity to Rocklatan, latanoprost, or study medication components. * Pregnancy or lactation.
