Additive Effect of Brinzolamide 1%/Brimonidine 0.2% Fixed Dose Combination as Adjunctive Therapy to a Prostaglandin Analogue
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the additive effect of brinzolamide 1%/brimonidine 0.2% (SIMBRINZA® suspension) in subjects with either open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who are currently on a prostaglandin analogue (PGA) monotherapy.

- Brinzolamide 1%/brimonidine 0.2% ophthalmic suspension
- Vehicle
- Prostaglandin analogue
Primary outcomes
- Mean Diurnal Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 6 — Week 6
Diurnal IOP was defined as the average of the four timepoints measured (8 AM, 10 AM, 3 PM, and 5 PM). IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was assessed using Goldmann applanation tonometry and reported in millimeters mercury (mmHg). One eye was chosen as the study eye and only data for the study eye were used for the analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).
