Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Safety and Efficacy Study of a New Eye Drop Formulation in Patients With Dry Eye Disease. (NCT NCT02553772)

NCT ID: NCT02553772

Last Updated: 2017-11-17

Results Overview

The OSDI© consists of 12 questions the patient is asked measuring the presence of ocular symptoms. Each of the 12 questions was assessed using a 5-point scale where 0=none of the time and 4=all of the time. The score is converted to a 0 to 100-point score where 0 is no symptoms and 100 is most symptoms. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Day 90

Population: Intent-to-treat population included all randomized participants.

The OSDI© consists of 12 questions the patient is asked measuring the presence of ocular symptoms. Each of the 12 questions was assessed using a 5-point scale where 0=none of the time and 4=all of the time. The score is converted to a 0 to 100-point score where 0 is no symptoms and 100 is most symptoms. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

Timeframe: Baseline, Day 90

Population: ITT population included all randomized participants. "n" in the category is the number of participants with data available at the given time-point.

TBUT is defined as the time required for dry spots to appear on the surface of the eye after blinking. The longer it takes, the more stable the tear film. The worse eye is used for the calculations and is defined as the eye with the shortest average TBUT at Baseline. A positive number change from Baseline indicates improvement and a negative number change from Baseline indicates a worsening.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Day 90

Population: ITT population included all randomized participants. "n" in the category is the number of participants with data available at the given time-point.

Total corneal staining with fluorescein was measured in the worse eye using a 6-point scale where 0= none, no staining (best) to 5=severe staining (worst). The total score is calculated as the sum of 5 regions of the cornea, resulting in a possible minimum score of 0 and a maximum possible score of 25 (severe staining score of 5 in all 5 regions). The worse eye is defined as the eye with the highest score at Baseline. A negative change from Baseline represents a decrease in staining (improvement).

Total conjunctival staining with lissamine green was measured in the worse eye using a 6-point scale where 0= none (best), no staining to 5=severe staining (worst). The total score is calculated as the sum of the 6 regions of the conjunctiva, resulting in a minimum possible score of 0 maximum possible score of 30 (severe staining score of 5 in 6 regions). The worse eye is defined as eye with the highest score at Baseline. A negative change from Baseline represents a decrease in staining (improvement).

Timeframe: Baseline, Day 90

Population: ITT population included all randomized participants. "n" is the number of participants in the category with data available at the given time-point.

The Schirmer Test measures tears produced by the eye over 5 minutes using a paper strip inserted into the eye. The results indicate the presence of dry eye (Normal = greater than 10 millimeters (mm) of tears, Dry Eye = less than 10 mm of tears). The smaller the number, the more severe the dry eye. The worse eye defined as the eye with the lowest score at baseline is used to calculate the change at Day 90. A positive number change from baseline indicates an increase in tears (improvement).
