Who may be eligible to take part?

Where is the study taking place?

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?

Change in symptoms of dry eye: Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), scores of dryness, burning and foreign body sensation of eyes (time frame: Part 1: baseline, 2, 4, and 6 hours. Part 2: baseline, 1 day, 3 and 9 days. Part 3: baseline and 45 days). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
