Study description

This study is one of the two post-authorization safety studies (PASS) that have been designed to monitor hyperpigmentation changes in the eye for 10 years in pediatric patients treated with latanoprost. The first study is an ongoing cohort study with 3-year follow-up (A6111143) to evaluate the long‑term safety profile (including, but not limited to hyperpigmentation changes in the eye) of latanoprost use in pediatric populations. This long‑term surveillance study (A6111144) will be initiated by inviting all patients completing the 3‑year follow up of the A6111143 study to participate, and hyperpigmentation changes in the eye will be monitored over the subsequent 7‑year period. The objective of the A6111144 study is to describe the incidence of hyperpigmentation changes in the eye over a total of 10 years of follow up by combining data collected from the 3-year follow-up in the A6111143 study and the extended 7-year follow-up in the A6111144 study, among pediatric patients with glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Patients enrolled in the A6111144 study will be classified into the latanoprost exposed, topical prostaglandin analogue (PGA) unexposed, and non latanoprost topical PGA exposed groups. Patients’ exposure status, hyperpigmentation change in the eye, basic clinical characteristics (i.e. visual acuity, IOP, optic nerve structure, visual field) will be obtained at the end of each year for 7 years. Concomitant medications and adverse events will be recorded throughout the study period. Incidence proportions and incidence rates of hyperpigmentation changes in the eye will be calculated for the entire 10 year follow-up period. FSFV of this study is estimated to occur in January 2014 (± 2 months) and LSLV is estimated to occur in January 2023 (± 2 months). Submission of the final study report will occur within one year after the LSLV (estimated January 2024 ± 2 months).
