About this study

This study is a multicentric, comparative, randomized, investigator-blinded, in parallel groups study to demonstrate the non-inferiority of DM05 in comparison with Optive™, in terms of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score) on patients with moderate to severe ocular dryness, after 35 days of treatment.

Read the detailed description

Evaluation of the non-inferiority of DM05 in comparison with OptiveTM, in terms of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score), on worse eye, between D0 and D35.

  • Comparison of D35 versus D0 and D84 versus D0 for each product and comparison between products for the following parameters:
  • Evolution of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score) on worse eye.
  • Evolution of OSDI score (Ocular Surface Disease Index).
  • Evolution of Van Bijsterveld score (Lissamine green staining) in worse eye.
  • Evolution of Schirmer test result in worse eye.
  • Evolution of Tear film Break-Up Time (TBUT) in worse eye.
  • Evolution of ocular dryness severity by evaluation of each main symptom by the patient and total score of all symptoms
  • Evaluation of treatment performance by the investigator and the patient.

Model description
Because the comparator will be in commercial packaging, the blinding of the subject is not possible. However, the study will be blinded for the investigator: evaluations will be done by an independent investigator, different than the person who will distribute the product. Subjects will be identified by a patient number. Each patient number will be associated to a treatment number, according to a randomization list provided before the beginning of the clinical investigation, and randomized either in one of both treatment groups (DM05 or Optive®).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing DM05 eye drops and Optive™ eye drops in people with Dry Eye, run by Horus Pharma.

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 14 inclusion and 24 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 7 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Demonstrate the non-inferiority of DM05 in comparison with OptiveTM, in terms of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score) on patients with moderate to severe ocular dryness, after 35 days of treatment. (time frame: 35 days). 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 7 May 2018.
