Abstract | Purpose: Patients and Methods: A prospective, randomized, multicenter, observer-masked, parallel-group study enrolled 335 patients diagnosed with POAG or OHT from 31 US sites who had adequately controlled intraocular pressure (IOP; ≤18 mm Hg) with latanoprost monotherapy. After a ≥72-hour washout period, patients were randomized to T2345 (n=165) or BPL (n=170) groups. Study drugs were dosed once-daily from Day 0 to Day 84 in one or both eyes. The study eye was the eye with lower IOP at baseline. The primary efficacy measure was the between-group comparison of the mean IOP values in the study eye at each time point (8 AM, 10 AM, and 4 PM on Days 15, 42, and 84). Safety measurements included ocular and systemic treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Results: Both T2345 and BPL adequately controlled IOP with 95% CIs within 1.5 mm Hg in the study eye at all assessed time points. The percentages of patients with diurnal IOP <18 mm Hg at Day 84 were 73.1% vs 78.7% for the T2345 and BPL groups, respectively. Adverse events were generally mild-to-moderate and primarily ocular. Fewer patients in the T2345 group experienced ocular TEAEs (13.9% vs 22.5%, respectively) and TEAEs with a suspected relationship to the study medication compared with the BPL group (5.5% vs 11.8%, respectively). The most common ocular TEAEs were instillation site pain and conjunctival hyperemia. Conclusion: In patients with POAG or OHT, both T2345 and BPL maintained IOP at or below clinically meaningful values for the duration of the study. T2345 showed a favorable safety profile, with numerically lower incidences of ocular TEAEs than BPL.
