What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Meibum Quality Responders in the Study Eye

    Meibum quality response is defined as a patient who experiences a reduction ≥ 50% in the number of meibomian glands with a Meibum Quality Score (MQS) of 2 or 3 in the study eye. The MQS is based on Mathers' meibum quality secretion grading 4-point scale where: 0 = Clear excreta or clear with small particles (normal viscosity), 1 = Opaque excreta with normal viscosity, 2 = Opaque excreta with increased viscosity (gel-like), and 3 = Secretions retain shape (or secretions do not express but a toothpaste-like substance can be seen at the opening of the orifice).

    Measured: Month 6

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage of Maximum Meibum Quality Score (MMQS) Responders in the Study Eye

    The MQS is assessed based on Mathers' meibum quality secretion grading 4-point scale where: 0 = Clear excreta or clear with small particles (normal viscosity), 1 = Opaque excreta with normal viscosity, 2 = Opaque excreta with increased viscosity (gel-like), and 3 = Secretions retain shape (or secretions do not express but a toothpaste-like substance can be seen at the opening of the orifice). MMQS is calculated for each eye as the maximum of the meibum quality scores of the expressible glands within the 6 central glands of the lower eyelids. A patient is considered to be an MMQS responder at a postrandomization visit if the MMQS in the study eye is 0 or 1 (indicating normal viscosity) at that visit.

    Measured: Month 6

  2. Percentage of Complete Overall Ocular Discomfort Responders

    Ocular symptoms of blurred vision, burning, dryness, eye pain, light sensitivity, itching, and foreign body sensation are assessed by the patient on a 5-point scale ranging from 0 = none to 4 = very severe. A patient is considered a complete overall ocular discomfort responder if the overall ocular discomfort score is 0 (indicating no overall ocular discomfort) at that visit.

    Measured: Month 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AGN-195263 0.1%, AGN-195263 0.03% and AGN-195263 0.01% in people with Meibomian Gland Dysfunction, run by Allergan at 33 sites 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 2 inclusion and 6 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 8 Sep 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites 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 8 Sep 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?

Percentage of Meibum Quality Responders in the Study Eye (time frame: Month 6). 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 8 Sep 2017.
