Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison of the effectiveness of two methods of using mitomycin c in non-penetrating deep sclerectomy surgery in patients with open angle glaucoma
Design
Clinical trial, with parallel, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 groups on 40 patients and Random Allocation Software software is used for randomization of software to randomly assign to two groups of methods and Random block sampling.
Settings and conduct
Comparison of the effectiveness of using two methods of mitomycin C administration in non-penetrating deep sclerectomy surgery in patients with open angle glaucoma in Tabriz Nicookari Hospital, 40 selected patients were divided into two equal groups and in one group of soaked sponges mitomycin C application and in the other group Subthenon injection is mitomycin. In this double-blind study, outcome assessor and statistical analyzer will not know how to use the drug in surgery.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients with advanced open-angle glaucoma, drug intolerance,uncontrol intraocular pressure with maximum drug use Exclusion criteria: Patients with uveitis, patients with neovascular glaucoma, patients with corneal diseases and structural abnormalities of the anterior chamber
Intervention groups
After selecting the study groups, patients are randomly divided into two groups. In the first group, patients will be injected with subtenon 0.1 ml of 0.2 mg / ml solution of mitomycin and in the second group, patients will be exposed to a sponge soaked in mitomycin 0.2 mg / ml for 3 minutes.
Main outcome variables
Comparison of the effect of two methods of drug administration in reducing intraocular pressure; Treatment success; Bleb appearence and complications.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, we will use the restricted randomization method of block randomization. Blocking is usually in order Balance the number of samples assigned to each of the study groups to be used. The size of all the blocks is the same and we will have 20 blocks in this two-group experiment. Randomization tool also uses random allocation software (software allocation Random) that these random sequence generation software in addition to simple randomization are able to generate random sequence by blocking method.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
In this study, patients will be divided into two groups based on the randomization form. The outcome assessor will not know how the drug was used by the surgeon. The data analyzer will also be unaware of how the drug is used in both groups.
