About this study

Official title: Effects of CEQUA™ on Objective and Subjective Dry Eye Findings Associated With Sjogren's Syndrome

The primary objective of this study is to show that CEQUA (cyclosporine 0.09% ophthalmic solution) improves symptoms of dry eye disease in a population of patients with Sjogren's Syndrome diagnosis.

Read the detailed description

After being informed about the study and potential risks, all participants giving informed consent will have an eye exam and will be asked about their medical history to determine eligibility for the study. Eligible participants will continue to the second visit the same day or up to 10 days later. During the second visit participants will answer questionnaires about their eyes and have their vision, eyes, and tears examined. All participants will be given CEQUA to use over the duration of the study. The same procedures will be repeated every four weeks for 3 months total.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Cyclosporine 0.09% Ophthalmic Solution in people with Dry Eye and Dry Eye Syndromes, run by Center for Ophthalmic and Vision Research, LLC 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 3 inclusion and 9 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 16 Apr 2024. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Mean change from baseline in total corneal staining (time frame: Baseline and week 12). 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 16 Apr 2024.
