Trial Outcomes & Findings for Dry Eye Disease Study With Brimonidine (NCT NCT03418727)

NCT ID: NCT03418727

Last Updated: 2022-07-06

Results Overview

Participants assessed their tolerance to the administration of the study drug, utilizing a VAS. The VAS is a 100-mm horizontal line with verbal descriptors at either end. Participants placed a single slash mark across the horizontal line between the end labeled "completely intolerable" (0 mm) and "easily tolerable" (100mm).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Days 1, 28, 56, and 84

Population: Safety population that included all randomized participants who received at least one dose of study medication. Here, the overall number of participants analyzed are those evaluable for this Outcome Measure and the Number Analyzed per Row is the number of participants with evaluable data at each time point.

Participants assessed their tolerance to the administration of the study drug, utilizing a VAS. The VAS is a 100-mm horizontal line with verbal descriptors at either end. Participants placed a single slash mark across the horizontal line between the end labeled "completely intolerable" (0 mm) and "easily tolerable" (100mm).
