About this study

Official title: A Double-Masked, Randomized, Multicenter, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel-Group Study of SJP-0035 Ophthalmic Solution Compared With Placebo to Assess Safety and Efficacy of SJP-0035 Ophthalmic Solution for Corneal Epithelial Wound Healing in Patients With Moderate to Severe Corneal Epithelial Disorders

The purpose of the study is to determine if SJP-0035 ophthalmic solution is effective in promoting corneal epithelial wound healing in conditions associated with corneal epithelial disorders.

Read the detailed description

There is currently no product approved for corneal epithelial wound healing. A Phase 1 Study SJP-0035/1-01 was conducted in healthy volunteers to investigate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetic profile of SJP-0035 ophthalmic solution and to determine the appropriate dose to be evaluated in patients with moderate to severe corneal epithelial disorders.

This Phase 2a study is being conducted to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SJP-0035 ophthalmic solution in patients to promote corneal epithelial wound healing in conditions associated with corneal epithelial disorders.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clearing of corneal fluorescein staining at week 4

    A patient will be considered a success for clearing of corneal fluorescein staining if their fluorescein staining has disappeared.

    Measured: measured at Week 4

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Number of Participants with Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety.

    An Adverse Event is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient enrolled into the study regardless of its causal relationship to study drug.

    Measured: baseline up to week 18

  2. Changes of subjective symptoms: blurred vision, photophobia and eye irritation

    100-point assessments are performed for the symptom of blurred vision, photophobia and eye irritation.

    Measured: screening up to week 18

  3. Changes of subjective signs: tear stability, conjunctival epithelia, and surface curvature of cornea

    These changes are measured at every study visit using standard ophthalmology procedures.

    Measured: screening up to week 18

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing SJP-0035 Ophthalmic Solution in people with Corneal Epithelial Disorders, run by Senju Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. at 17 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 5 inclusion and 8 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 29 Mar 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 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?

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?

Clearing of corneal fluorescein staining at week 4 (time frame: measured at Week 4). 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 29 Mar 2021.
