What is being measured

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

  1. Ocular Itching at Day 7 (7 Minutes Post Conjunctival Allergen Challenge [CAC 6])

    Ocular Itching was evaluated by participants and graded with Ophthalmic Research Associates, Inc. (ORA) Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 0.5=intermittent tickle in the cornea; 1=intermittent tickle more than just the cornea; 1.5=intermittent all-over tickling sensation; 2=mild conscious itch without desire to rub; 2.5=moderate, diffuse continuous itch with desire to rub; 3=severe itch with desire to rub; 3.5=severe itch improved with minimal rubbing; 4=incapacitating itch with an irresistible urge to rub) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates lesser ocular itching. CAC is an initial titration challenge to determine the appropriate allergen and lowest concentration of allergen that produced a positive bilateral allergic response for each subject, defined as ≥ 2 score (0-4 point scale) in ocular itching and conjunctival redness within 10 minutes of the last titration of allergen.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 7 (7 minutes post CAC 6)

  2. Ocular Itching at Day 14 (7 Minutes Post CAC 9)

    Ocular Itching was evaluated by participants and graded with Ophthalmic Research Associates, Inc. (ORA) Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 0.5=intermittent tickle in the cornea; 1=intermittent tickle more than just the cornea; 1.5=intermittent all-over tickling sensation; 2=mild conscious itch without desire to rub; 2.5=moderate, diffuse continuous itch with desire to rub; 3=severe itch with desire to rub; 3.5=severe itch improved with minimal rubbing; 4=incapacitating itch with an irresistible urge to rub) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates lesser ocular itching.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 14 (7 minutes post CAC 9)

  3. Conjunctival Redness at Day 7 (20 Minutes Post CAC 6)

    Conjunctival Redness was evaluated by an investigator with slit lamp and graded with ORA Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 1=mild-slightly dilated blood vessels; color of vessels is typically pink; can be quadrantal; 2=moderate-more apparent dilation of blood vessels; vessel color is more intense (redder); involves the majority of the vessel bed; 3=severe-numerous and obvious dilated blood vessels; in the absence of chemosis the color is deep red, may be less red or pink in presence of chemosis, is not quadrantic; 4=extremely severe-large, numerous, dilated blood vessels characterized by unusually severe deep red color, regardless of grade of chemosis, which involves the entire vessel bed) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates reduction in the conjunctival redness.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 7 (20 minutes post CAC 6)

  4. Conjunctival Redness at Day 14 (20 Minutes Post CAC 9)

    Conjunctival Redness was evaluated by an investigator with slit lamp and graded with ORA Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 1=mild-slightly dilated blood vessels; color of vessels is typically pink; can be quadrantal; 2=moderate-more apparent dilation of blood vessels; vessel color is more intense (redder); involves the majority of the vessel bed; 3=severe-numerous and obvious dilated blood vessels; in the absence of chemosis the color is deep red, may be less red or pink in presence of chemosis, is not quadrantic; 4=extremely severe-large, numerous, dilated blood vessels characterized by unusually severe deep red color, regardless of grade of chemosis, which involves the entire vessel bed) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates reduction in the conjunctival redness.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 14 (20 minutes post CAC 9)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Ocular Itching at Day 6 (CAC 4), 5 (CAC 7)

    Ocular Itching was evaluated by participants and graded with Ophthalmic Research Associates, Inc. (ORA) Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 0.5=intermittent tickle in the cornea; 1=intermittent tickle more than just the cornea; 1.5=intermittent all-over tickling sensation; 2=mild conscious itch without desire to rub; 2.5=moderate, diffuse continuous itch with desire to rub; 3=severe itch with desire to rub; 3.5=severe itch improved with minimal rubbing; 4=incapacitating itch with an irresistible urge to rub) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates lesser ocular itching.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 6 (CAC 4), Day 13 (CAC 7) 7 minutes post CAC

  2. Conjunctival Redness at Day 6 (CAC 4), 5 (CAC 7)

    Conjunctival Redness was evaluated by an investigator with slit lamp and graded with ORA Scale with the score ranged from 0 to 4 (0=none; 1=mild-slightly dilated blood vessels; color of vessels is typically pink; can be quadrantal; 2=moderate-more apparent dilation of blood vessels; vessel color is more intense (redder); involves the majority of the vessel bed; 3=severe-numerous and obvious dilated blood vessels; in the absence of chemosis the color is deep red, may be less red or pink in presence of chemosis, is not quadrantic; 4=extremely severe-large, numerous, dilated blood vessels characterized by unusually severe deep red color, regardless of grade of chemosis, which involves the entire vessel bed) with 0.5 point increments allowed, and lower scores indicates reduction in the conjunctival redness.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 6 (CAC 4), Day 13 (CAC 7) at 20 minutes post CAC

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Lifitegrast in people with Allergic Conjunctivitis, run by Shire 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 6 inclusion and 11 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 11 Jun 2021. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 24 Feb 2017). 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?

Ocular Itching at Day 7 (7 Minutes Post Conjunctival Allergen Challenge [CAC 6]) (time frame: Baseline to Day 7 (7 minutes post CAC 6)). The study lists 4 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 11 Jun 2021.
