About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Clinical Efficacy and Tolerability of SYSTANE Complete in Adult Patients With Dry Eye Disease Following Topical Ocular Use for 4 Weeks: A Multicenter Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and tolerability of SYSTANE® Complete in adult patients with dry eye disease. Fluorescein-stained tear film break-up time (TFBUT) will be evaluated as the primary objective.

Read the detailed description

Patients will attend 4 scheduled visits: Screening Visit (Day -7 to Day 0), Visit 1/Baseline Visit (Day 1), Visit 2 (Day 14) and Visit 3 (Day 28).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in Tear Film Break-up Time (TFBUT) at Day 14

    TFBUT will be assessed using fluorescein, an ocular staining dye

    Measured: Baseline, Day 14

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Change from baseline in dry eye symptom score at Day 1

    As reported by the patient using a Likert scale post drop instillation

    Measured: Baseline, Day 1

  2. Soothing sensation score

    As reported by the patient using a Likert scale post drop instillation

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Tolerability assessment score

    As reported by the patient using an assessment questionnaire post drop instillation

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Change from baseline in ocular discomfort at Day 14

    As reported by the patient using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Measured: Baseline, Day 14

  5. Change from baseline in corneal staining score at Day 28

    Assessment of ocular staining using staining dye under a slit lamp

    Measured: Baseline, Day 28

  6. Change from baseline in response to the revised IDEEL questionnaire at Day 28

    As reported by the patient using a subjective questionnaire

    Measured: Baseline, Day 28

  7. Change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L score(s) at Day 28

    As reported by the patient using a validated questionnaire

    Measured: Baseline, Day 28

  8. Change from baseline in TFBUT at Day 28

    TFBUT will be assessed using fluorescein, an ocular staining dye

    Measured: Baseline, Day 28

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 in Tear Film Break-up Time (TFBUT) at Day 14 (time frame: Baseline, Day 14). 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.
