Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Evaluation of the Safety and Efficacy of Moxifloxacin Ophthalmic Solution 0.5% ((VIGAMOX®) Versus Ofloxacin Ophthalmic Solution 0.3% in the Treatment of Bacterial Conjunctivitis in Chinese Patients (NCT NCT01573910)

NCT ID: NCT01573910

Last Updated: 2015-05-12

Results Overview

Ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis (bulbar conjunctival injection and conjunctival discharge/exudates) were rated by the investigator on a 4-point scale, with 0=normal/absent; 1=mild; 2=moderate, and 3=severe. Clinical cure rate is presented as the percentage of participants for which the sum of the numerical scores for the 2 cardinal ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis was 0 at Day 9 TOC/Exit Visit.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 9

Population: This analysis population includes all patients who received study medication, had no major protocol deviations, had bacteria present at Day 1 visit, and had baseline and TOC/exit data or early exit data.

Ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis (bulbar conjunctival injection and conjunctival discharge/exudates) were rated by the investigator on a 4-point scale, with 0=normal/absent; 1=mild; 2=moderate, and 3=severe. Clinical cure rate is presented as the percentage of participants for which the sum of the numerical scores for the 2 cardinal ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis was 0 at Day 9 TOC/Exit Visit.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 9

Population: This analysis population includes all patients who received study medication, had no major protocol deviations, had bacteria present at Day 1 visit, and had baseline and TOC/exit data or early exit data.

Microbiological specimen(s) from the affected eye(s) were collected according to a protocol-defined process. Microbiological success rate is presented as the percentage of participants for which the pre-therapy pathogens at Visit 1 (Day 1) were eradicated at Day 9 TOC/Exit Visit.
