Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Xalost S in Glaucoma Patients.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In patients with Glaucoma, Xalost S or Xalatan or Taflotan-S are administered for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, among them, Xalatan administration group are switched to Xalost S or Taflotan-S. Extension study period is 8 weeks.
To compare effect (ocular surface damage) and safety of preservative-free Latanoprost/Tafluprost to Benzalkonium chloride-preserved Latanoprost in primary open angle glaucoma or normal tension glaucoma.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Corneal Staining Score at week 12 [week 12]
At week 12 of drug administration compare the therapeutic effectiveness between control drug and trial drug evaluated as the effect on corneal staining score. Scale: "Oxford grading system" that divides into 6 groups according to severity from 0 (absent) to 5 (severe). The higher scores mean a worse outcome.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change from baseline in Hyperemia Score at week 4, 8, 12 [baseline and week 4, 8, 12]
After 4, 8, 12 weeks of drug administration compare the therapeutic effectiveness between control drug and trial drug evaluated as the effect on Hyperemia Score. Scale: "Efron Grading Scales" that divided into 5 groups according to severity from 0 (normal) to 4 (severe). The higher scores mean a worse outcome.
- Change from baseline in Intraocular Pressure at week 4, 8, 12 [baseline and week 4, 8, 12]
After 4, 8, 12 weeks of drug administration compare the therapeutic effectiveness between control drug and trial drug evaluated as the effect on Intraocular pressure. The highest Intraocular pressure means a worse outcome.
