Criteria for evaluation:

Measurements of effectiveness: Main efficacy criterion It will be determined as effective if there is a reduction in number or species of bacterial flora by comparing the basal culture against the final culture among the five different patient groups.

Reduction or absence of infection with the clinical evaluation through signs and symptoms.

Safety Measurements: it will be determined by visual acuity and adverse events Patients recruited will be treated for 7, for protocol purpose, the infected eye (s) will be taken into account at the time of baseline, however the study medication and procedures will be applied and performed in both eyes to protect the healthy eye.

The study is divided into the following evaluation periods:

Visit 1 baseline (day 1), visit 2 (day 3), final visit (day 8) and a telephone call (day 23) for the evaluation of adverse events.

Subjects will be allocated to any of the following regimen dosages:

  • PRO-157 1 drop 2 times daily
  • PRO-157 1 drop 3 times daily
  • PRO-157 1 drop 4 times daily
  • Moxifloxacin 1 drop 3 times daily
  • Gatifloxacin 1 drop 3 times daily. All regimen dosage will have a duration of 7 days. An artificial tear preservative free (Lagricel Ofteno®) will also be applied 15 minutes before instillation of study drug, during study period.

Data Analysis: The data will be analyzed by Intention to Treat (ITT) and per Protocol (PP) in which each of the variables is described, the ITT population will be constituted by all subjects recruited who have received at least one dose of the study, the PP population will be the subset of ITT composed of all subjects without any major deviation from the protocol and the bivariate analysis will be performed in this group.

Continuous quantitative variables are expressed and presented by measures of central tendency and dispersion (mean, standard deviation and ranges). Qualitative nominal and ordinal variables are presented by means of frequencies and proportions. The level of significance was an alpha of 0.05 or less.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline Bacterial Culture

    Efficacy will be determined comparing the cultures of the lower conjunctival pouch, of the baseline (day 1) against final visit (day 8), quantifying and identifying the colony forming units (CFU) by genus and species.

    The evaluated variable is discrete quantitative type and the scale of measurement used will be CFU x mL considering the eradication, reduction or proliferation of the bacterial agent. It will be determined as effective if there is a reduction in number of bacterial flora in at least 95% of the evaluated subjects.

    Measured: up to one week

  2. Adverse Events

    Number of adverse events: dependent variable, discrete quantitative, the number of adverse events per group will be compared at the end of the study and it will be considered safe if there is not greater increase of 5% of serious adverse events.

    Measured: during the intervention period for 7 days, and 15 days after the final visit

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Cases Frequency of Ocular Secretion

    Secretion ocular: qualitative ordinal variable. The secretion was evaluated by subject of study as present / absent, taking into consideration that each study subject represents two probable cases, one for each eye. On this premise, the statistical analysis of the number of cases reported in the final visit was made by study group.

    Measured: Up to one week.

  2. Number of Cases of Conjunctival Hyperemia

    Conjunctival hyperemia: qualitative ordinal variable. The conjunctival hyperemia was evaluated by subject of study as present / absent, taking into consideration that each study subject represents two probable cases, one for each eye. On this premise, the statistical analysis of the number of cases reported in the final visit was made by study group.

    Measured: up to one week

  3. Chemosis Frequency

    Chemosis: qualitative ordinal variable, measurement scale absent or present. The chemosis was evaluated by subject of study as present / absent, taking into consideration that each study subject represents two probable cases, one for each eye. On this premise, the statistical analysis of the number of cases reported in the final visit was made by study group.

    Measured: up to one week

  4. Eyelid Edema Frequency

    Eyelid edema: qualitative ordinal variable, measurement scale absent or present.Between baseline (day 0) versus final visit (day 7).

    The eyelid edema was evaluated by subject of study as present / absent, taking into consideration that each study subject represents two probable cases, one for each eye. On this premise, the statistical analysis of the number of cases reported in the final visit was made by study group.

    Measured: Up to one week

  5. Frequency of Corneal Epithelial Defects

    Corneal epithelial defects: qualitative ordinal variable, measurement scale present or absent.

    The corneal epithelial defects was evaluated by subject of study as present / absent, taking into consideration that each study subject represents two probable cases, one for each eye. On this premise, the statistical analysis of the number of cases reported in the final visit was made by study group.

    Measured: Up to one week

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing PRO-157, Vigamox and Zymar® in people with Bacterial Conjunctivitis, run by Laboratorios Sophia S.A de C.V. at 1 site in Mexico.

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 3 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 22 May 2019. 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 Mexico. 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.

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 15 Feb 2019). 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?

Change From Baseline Bacterial Culture (time frame: up to one week). The study lists 2 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 22 May 2019.
