Trial Outcomes & Findings for Lifitegrast 5% for the Treatment of Dry Eye In Habitual Soft Contact Lens Wearers (NCT NCT05505292)

NCT ID: NCT05505292

Last Updated: 2025-01-14

Results Overview

Measured by change in total score on the CLDEQ-8 (Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire) in subjects using lifitegrast ophthalmic solution as compared to subjects using lifitegrast ophthalmic solution vehicle from baseline to week 8. The CLDEQ-8 (Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire) is a symptom questionnaire that assesses discomfort related to dry eye in contact lens wearers. The minimum possible CLDEQ-8 score is 0. The maximum possible CLDEQ-8 score is 37. Therefore, the maximum change is +/- 37. A negative change is an improvement in symptoms (a lower score at week 8 than baseline).

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Population: Note that data is missing for 2 subjects in the lifitegrast group due to issues with calibrating the TearLab device on the day of their visits.

Change in tear osmolarity (as measured by the TearLab device) from baseline to week 8 in the lifitegrast 5% group compared to subjects using lifitegrast ophthalmic solution vehicle. Measured in mOsm/L. A negative change is a lower osmolarity at week 8, which would be an improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 weeks

Measured by change in score for each Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire-8 (CLDEQ-8) question in subjects using lifitegrast ophthalmic solution compared to subjects using lifitegrast ophthalmic solution vehicle. A negative change for a question from baseline to week 8 is an improvement in symptom frequency or intensity. Questions are for the past 2 weeks. Questions 1a, 2a, 3a \& 4 ask about frequency of eye discomfort when wearing contacts, eye dryness, changeable, blurry vision in contacts and wanting to close your eyes. Scale: 0=Never, 1=Rarely, 2=Sometimes, 3=Frequently, 4=Constantly Questions 1b, 2b \& 3b ask about the intensity of symptoms at the end of contact lens wearing time noted for questions 1a, 2a and 3a. Scale: 0-5, 0=Never have it, 5=Very Intense Question 5 asks how often did your eyes bother you so much that you felt you needed to take out your contact lenses. Scale: 1=Never, 2=Less than once a week, 3=Weekly, 4=Several times a week, 5=Daily, 6=Several times a day
