Second-generation travoprost intracameral implant for open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension
Official title: Phase 2 Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of the Second Generation Travoprost Intracameral Implant
Run by Glaukos Corporation · NCT07075718 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial will test whether a second-generation travoprost implant placed inside the eye lowers eye pressure better than timolol eye drops in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who have not had prior incisional glaucoma surgery, ALT, or MIGS in the study eye are appropriate candidates for this protocol.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with prior incisional glaucoma surgery, prior ALT, or prior MIGS in the study eye are excluded and would not be expected to benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This randomized Phase 2/3 trial compares a second-generation travoprost intracameral implant to timolol 0.5% eye drops given twice daily in adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Participants are randomized to receive the implant (with sham and placebo controls as appropriate) or topical timolol and are followed for safety and intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering outcomes. Key eligibility includes a diagnosis of open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension and excludes eyes with prior incisional glaucoma surgery, prior argon laser trabeculoplasty (ALT), or prior minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS). The study collects both efficacy endpoints (IOP reduction) and safety data related to the implant and ocular procedures.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the implant could provide sustained IOP lowering without daily drops, improving adherence and potentially reducing glaucoma progression risk.
How similar studies have gone: Earlier-generation intracameral prostaglandin implants, including travoprost devices, have demonstrated IOP lowering versus topical therapy in prior trials, though this second-generation implant is a newer iteration undergoing further testing.
