What is being measured

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

  1. Change From Baseline in Total Staining Score at Day 90 in the Study Eye

    The total staining score is the sum of corneal and conjunctival staining score using Modified NEI grading scale. The cornea is divided into 5 zones and the nasal and temporal conjunctiva is divided into 6 zones. The combined total staining score is based on the sum of the five zones on the cornea and six zones on the conjunctiva. Each zone is graded on a 0 to 5 scale (0=no staining; 1=trace; 2=mild; 3=moderate; 4=severe; 5=very severe), for a total score ranging from 0 to 55. The higher the score, the worse the dry eye condition. A negative change from Baseline represents a decrease in the severity of staining (improvement). The study eye is defined as the worst eye based on total ocular staining score at Baseline (Day 1). The fellow eye is the other eye. A mixed-effects model repeated measures (MMMR) was used for analyses.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Day 90

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change From Baseline in Current Symptom Survey Total Score at Day 90

    The Current Symptom Survey is a self-assessed 6-item visual analog scale (VAS) survey that assesses symptoms of dry eye disease (DED) including: burning, dryness, irritation, grittiness/foreign body sensation, blurry/fluctuating vision, overall ocular pain/discomfort. Each individual symptom is rated using a score range of 0=none to 100=maximum. The total score, ranging from 0 to 600, is calculated as the sum of individual symptom scores. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement in DED symptoms experienced by the participant. This is an overall evaluation not per eye. A MMMR model was used for analyses.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) and Day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing 011516X (New Artificial Tear Formulation), Systane Ultra Multidose and REFRESH PLUS® in people with Dry Eye Disease (DED), run by Allergan at 26 sites 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 7 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 26 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 26 sites 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 26 Jun 2024). 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 in Total Staining Score at Day 90 in the Study Eye (time frame: Baseline (Day 1) and Day 90). 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 26 Jun 2024.
