About this study

Official title: A Single-Center, Randomized, Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Two Investigational OTC Eye Drops in Healthy Adults With Red Eye

This is a single center, double-blinded study designed to demonstrate the therapeutic equivalence of over-the-counter eye drops in healthy adults with red eyes.

Read the detailed description

Eligible participants will use assigned eye drop products as directed. Participants will be required to attend 2 consecutive clinic visits. Assessments for eye redness and eye comfort will be completed. Participants will complete brief questionnaires about their eyes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinician Assessment of Change From Baseline in Redness at 60 Seconds After First Product Application

    Mean change from baseline in redness. Redness was assessed on a 5-point severity scale with 0.5 increments (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extremely severe), where a lower score is better.

    Measured: Baseline to 60 seconds after first product application

  2. Percentage of Participants With Response to Redness at 60 Seconds After First Product Application

    The responder was defined as a subject whose assessment score at 60 seconds after the initial eye drop is less than the assessment score at baseline. Redness was assessed on a 5-point severity scale with 0.5 increments (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extremely severe), where a lower score is better.

    Measured: Baseline to 60 seconds after first product application

Secondary outcomes (32)

    Measured: Baseline to 30 seconds after first product application

  2. Clinician Assessment of Change From Baseline in Redness at 2 Minutes After First Product Application

    Mean change from baseline in redness. Redness was assessed on a 5-point severity scale with 0.5 increments (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = severe, and 4 = extremely severe), where a lower score is better.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing F# 13418-148 Eye Drops, F#13418-158 Eye Drops and F# PF-004390 Eye Drops in people with Ophthalmic Solutions, run by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Inc. (J&JCI) 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 9 inclusion and 15 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 24 May 2023. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 Aug 2018). 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?

Clinician Assessment of Change From Baseline in Redness at 60 Seconds After First Product Application (time frame: Baseline to 60 seconds after first product application). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03198000, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 24 May 2023.
