About this study

Official title: A Single-Center Study Evaluating the Safety of a New Preservative in an OTC Lubricant Eye Drop Used QID in Healthy Adults and in Subjects Diagnosed With Dry Eye

This study is to evaluate the safety of a new preservative in a lubricant eye drop used four times a day in healthy adults and subjects diagnosed with dry eye.

Read the detailed description

Single-site, open-labeled study. Twenty two subjects will be enrolled into the healthy adult group and twenty two subjects into the dry eye group. Each subject will be in the study for approximately 2 weeks (treatment) and seen at three study Visits: Visit 1 (Day 0, Baseline), Visit 2 (Day 7 +/- 1) and Visit 3 (Day 14 +/- 1). Dosing regimen is 1-2 drops into each eye, four times daily, for two weeks. Assessments will be comprised of visual acuity, slit lamp biomicroscopy, fluorescein corneal staining, and product comfort.

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-dose Product Comfort

    Product (ocular) comfort was assessed for each eye immediately, and at 1, 2, and 3 minutes following dosing at Visit 1 and 3 using a scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 is very uncomfortable and 10 is very comfortable.

    Measured: baseline, Within Two weeks

  2. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Visual Acuity

    Change from Baseline in Pre-Treatment Means of Pre-Dose Visual Acuity on the LogMAR scale. (The LogMAR scale converts the geometric sequence of a traditional chart to a linear scale. It measures visual acuity loss; positive values indicate vision loss, while negative values denote normal or better visual acuity.)

    Measured: baseline, Within Two weeks

  3. Change from Baseline in Pre-dose Inferior Staining

    Means and Differences from Visit 1 in Pre-Dose Inferior Staining

    Measured: baseline, Within Two weeks

  4. Change from Baseline in Mean Corneal Staining

    Mean Corneal Staining averaging over the 5 corneal regions and averaging over both eyes (NEI scale 0-3)

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  5. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Central Staining

    Pre-dose Central Staining: Means and Differences from Visit 1

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  6. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Superior Staining

    Pre-Dose Superior Staining: Means and Differences from Visit 1

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  7. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Temporal Staining

    Pre-dose Temporal Staining: Means and Differences from Visit 1

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  8. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Nasal Staining

    Pre-dose Nasal Staining: Means and Differences from Visit 1

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  9. Change from Baseline in Pre-Dose Average Staining

    Pre-dose Average Staining: Means and Differences from Visit 1

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  10. Changes in Slit-Lamp Findings: Eye Structure: Lid

    Slit-lamp findings were recorded for the Lid ocular structure at 6 time points

    Measured: Within Two Weeks

  11. Changes in Slit-Lamp Findings: Eye Structure: Lens

    Slit-lamp findings were recorded for the Lens ocular structure at 6 time points

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  12. Changes in Slit-Lamp Findings: Eye Structure: Conjunctiva

    Slit-lamp findings were recorded for the Conjunctiva ocular structure at 6 time points

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

  13. Change from Baseline in Slit-Lamp Findings: Eye Structure: Cornea

    Slit-lamp findings were recorded for the Cornea ocular structure at 6 time points

    Measured: baseline, Within Two Weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Eye Drops with Experimental Preservative in people with Dry Eye Syndromes, run by Johnson & Johnson Consumer and Personal Products Worldwide 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 14 Sep 2011. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Post-dose Product Comfort (time frame: baseline, Within Two weeks). The study lists 13 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 14 Sep 2011.
