What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Susceptability Changes in Streptococcus Pneumoniae Distal to the Site of Instillation

    Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).

    0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibiotic

    Measured: Day 0 and Day 42

  2. Susceptability Changes in Staphylococcus Aureus Distal to the Site of Instillation

    Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).

    0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibiotic

    Measured: Day 0, Day 42

  3. Susceptability Changes in Haemophilus Influenzae Distal to the Site of Instillation

    Susceptibility change refers to a change in vulnerability of a specified bacterial strain to antibiotic treatment. Susceptibility was assessed by broth microdilution methods recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI).

    0% = zero isolates were resistant to antibiotic 100% = all isolates were resistant to antibiotic

    Measured: Day 0, Day 42

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing VIGAMOX in people with Bacterial Conjunctivitis, run by Alcon Research at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Feb 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Susceptability Changes in Streptococcus Pneumoniae Distal to the Site of Instillation (time frame: Day 0 and Day 42). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Nov 2012.
