A Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of MINIject S+ in Subjects With Open Angle Glaucoma (NCT07009236)

A Multi-center, Prospective, Cohort Expansion Clinical Study Evaluating the Safety, Usability, Implantation Accuracy and Efficacy of MINIject S+ in Subjects With Open Angle Glaucoma (STAR VII Study)

🟢 Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic ⚙️ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: iSTAR Medical

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This is a prospective, multi-center, international, cohort expansion study. Part 1 will be conducted in subjects with open angle glaucoma to identify the best insertion tool for MINIject S+. In Part 1, three different investigational insertion tools will be used to place MINIject implants in this first-in man study. Each arm represents a different version of the insertion tool. Subject and independent central reader will be blinded to the insertion tool used to implant MINIject S+. Part 2 will be an expansion phase where the selected insertion tool will be assessed in a larger population of subjects with open angle glaucoma and operable cataracts undergoing combined glaucoma and cataract surgery (with IOL implantation).
