Topical Insulin for Glaucoma (TING2) Study

This study is looking into a new eye drop treatment called EYED-002, which contains human insulin, for people with open-angle glaucoma. Glaucoma is an eye condition that can damage your optic nerve. The study wants to find out if EYED-002 is safe and how well it works. You would receive either a low dose (721 U/mL) or a high dose (1442 U/mL) of EYED-002, or a placebo (a drop without active insulin). The study is open to adults aged 18 to 90 who have been diagnosed with glaucoma. The main goal is to track any side effects, but researchers will also look at how the treatment affects your vision and eye health. There are 90 participants planned for this study.

Study design
This study is designed in phases, starting with testing different doses of EYED-002, then moving to a masked, randomized, placebo-controlled phase. This means some participants will receive the active drug and others a placebo, without knowing which they are getting. There are 90 participants planned.
What's involved
Participants will receive one drop of EYED-002 or a placebo in one eye daily. For some groups, this will be in-clinic, and for others, it will be at home with quarterly visits for 12 months. Safety will be monitored for up to 27 months.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Your safety will be monitored from the time you give consent until the end of your participation, which could be up to 27 months.

  • Incidence and severity of ocular and systemic adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs)From informed consent through end of participation (up to 27 months)

    Safety of topical sterile human insulin (EYED-002) in patients with open-angle glaucoma. AEs and SAEs classified using MedDRA nomenclature, assessed for severity (mild, moderate, severe) and causality. Safety monitoring includes glycemia measurements before and 2 hours after in-clinic insulin administration, and serial serum electrolyte (potassium) measurements.
