Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the treatment persistence of carteolol hydrochloride/latanoprost fixed-combination ophthalmic solution (CAR/LAT) and other β-blocker/prostanoid FP receptor agonist fixed-combination ophthalmic solutions (BB/FP) in the treatment of glaucoma.
Study design: Retrospective observational cohort study.
Methods: A retrospective observational cohort study using JMDC Claims Database. Patients aged 20 years or older diagnosed with glaucoma between February 1, 2017, and March 31, 2020, and prescribed CAR/LAT or another BB/FP were included.
Results: A total of 16,612 patients (7423 in the CAR/LAT group and 9189 in the other BB/FP group) were included. The cumulative treatment persistence rate at the end of follow-up was 42.0% (64.9% at 1 year, 53.4% at 2 years, 45.0% at 3 years, and 42.0% at 4 years) in the CAR/LAT group and 34.7% (54.8% at 1 year, 43.6% at 2 years, 37.1% at 3 years, and 34.7% at 4 years) in the other BB/FP group. Treatment persistence was significantly longer in the CAR/LAT group compared to that in the other BB/FP group (hazard ratio 0.747, p < 0.0001). Over the treatment period, the number of patients who discontinued treatment was 3281 (44.2%) in the CAR/LAT group and 4926 (53.6%) in the other BB/FP group; the median duration of treatment was 135 days and 97 days, respectively.
Conclusion: The study results suggest that persistence rates vary depending on the BB/FP and CAR/LAT appears to be more persistent than other BB/FP.
期刊介绍：
The Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology (JJO) was inaugurated in 1957 as a quarterly journal published in English by the Ophthalmology Department of the University of Tokyo, with the aim of disseminating the achievements of Japanese ophthalmologists worldwide. JJO remains the only Japanese ophthalmology journal published in English. In 1997, the Japanese Ophthalmological Society assumed the responsibility for publishing the Japanese Journal of Ophthalmology as its official English-language publication.
Currently the journal is published bimonthly and accepts papers from authors worldwide. JJO has become an international interdisciplinary forum for the publication of basic science and clinical research papers.
