Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effect of Olopatadine on Allergic Tear Mediators (NCT NCT00609128)

NCT ID: NCT00609128

Last Updated: 2018-09-20

Results Overview

Outcome: The collected tears (from 10 subjects)were pooled, incubated with primary conjunctival epithelial cells before eosinophil adhesion was measured via eosinophil peroxidase assay. Eosinophils in eosinophils / square cm measured.

Measure
Olopatadine
one drop olopatadine in one eye only, two times per day at an interval of 6 to 8 hours for 1 week. This allows the untreated eye to be the control.

Outcome measures

Outcome measures
Measure
Tears From Olopatadine Treated Eyes
n=10 Participants
Allergic subjects treated one eye with olopatadine and did not treat other eye (control). Tears collected from both eyes and incubated with conjunctival epithelial cells. We determined whether tears collected from olopatadine treated eyes of subjects result in more or less purified peripheral blood eosinophil adhesion to conjunctival epithelial cells compared to tears collected from untreated eyes from the same subjects.
Tears From Untreated Eyes
n=10 Participants
Allergic subjects treated one eye with olopatadine and did not treat other eye (control). Tears collected from both eyes and incubated with conjunctival epithelial cells. We determined whether tears collected from olopatadine treated eyes of subjects result in more or less purified peripheral blood eosinophil adhesion to conjunctival epithelial cells compared to tears collected from untreated eyes from the same subjects.
Study Examined Whether the Incubation of Human Conjunctival Epithelial Cells With Tears Pooled From Allergic Subjects (One Eye With and Other Eye Without Olopatadine Treatment) Promotes Eosinophil Adhesion
4517 eosinophils/square cm epithelial cells
Standard Error 485
5004 eosinophils/square cm epithelial cells
Standard Error 445
