Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Mean Intraocular Pressure (IOP) at Week 2, Week 6, and Month 3 for Each Assessment Time Point (8 AM, 10 AM, and 4 PM)
Week 2, Week 6, Month 3 (8 AM, 10 AM, 4 PM)

As measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry. One eye from each subject was chosen as the study eye and only the study eye was used in the efficacy analysis. A higher IOP can be a greater risk factor for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage).

Adverse Events (AEs)

Mean IOP
24-hour Area Under the Curve (AUC) in IOP Reduction
Day 5
Mean change from baseline in intraocular pressure (IOP)
Baseline, Up to Week 4

IOP (fluid pressure inside the eye) was measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry. A higher IOP can be a greater risk for developing glaucoma or glaucoma progression (leading to optic nerve damage). A more negative change indicates a greater amount of improvement.

Mean Intraocular Pressure
Up to 2 weeks
Maximum Observed Travoprost Free Acid Plasma Concentration (Cmax)
Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Travoprost free acid plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Cmax was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

Time to Reach Cmax (Tmax)
Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Tmax was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

Time to Last Measurable Concentration (Tlast)
Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). Tlast was calculated for each participant with at least 1 quantifiable time point.

Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). AUC(0-tlast) was calculated for each participant with at least 2 quantifiable time points.

Area Under the Analyte Plasma Concentration-time Curve Over the Dosing Interval (Inf)[AUC(0-∞)]
Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). AUC(0-∞) was calculated for each participant with at least 3 quantifiable time points.

Half-life (t½)
Day 7, Up to 80 minutes postdose

Analyte plasma concentrations at each collection time point (predose, 10, 20, 40, 80 minutes postdose) were quantitated using a high performance liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry method (HPLC/MS/MS). T½ was calculated for each participant with at least 3 quantifiable time points.

Frequently asked questions about Travoprost, 0.004%

What is Travoprost used for?

Travoprost is used for lowering elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma, angle-closure glaucoma, or ocular hypertension. It is a small molecule developed by Alcon Inc. for the ophthalmology therapeutic area and is currently in Phase 3 clinical development.

What does Travoprost target?

Travoprost is a prostaglandin analog that works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor from the eye, thereby reducing intraocular pressure. It is used in the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Who makes Travoprost?

Travoprost is developed by Alcon Inc., a company traded under the ticker symbol ALC. Alcon is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

What phase is Travoprost in?

Travoprost is in Phase 3 clinical development. It has completed five trials, including Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies, with a total enrollment of 1,549 participants. The drug is investigational and not yet approved by regulatory authorities.

What clinical trials is Travoprost in?

Travoprost has been studied in several completed clinical trials, including NCT00293761 (Phase 3), NCT00527501 (Phase 2), NCT00637130 (Phase 2), and NCT01298687 (Phase 2). These trials evaluated its efficacy in lowering intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Is Travoprost the same as TRAVATAN?

Travoprost is the active ingredient in the brand-name product TRAVATAN. Clinical trials, such as NCT01298687, have studied the divided dose of TRAVATAN to assess its intraocular pressure lowering efficacy in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
