Trial summary

Dry eye disease (DED), also called keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a common ocular condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. The typical symptoms of DED include irritation, discomfort, blurred or fluctuating vision. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: An Interventional, Non-comparative, Single-center Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) Study to Evaluate Performance and Safety of "Distilled Waters-based Eyedrops" Used to Relieve Dry Eye Symptoms

Dry eye disease (DED), also called keratoconjunctivitis sicca, is a common ocular condition characterized by a loss of homeostasis of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. The typical symptoms of DED include irritation, discomfort, blurred or fluctuating vision.

Over the counter (OTC) artificial tears are typically the first line of dry eye treatment; they are meant to supplement the tears that cover the eye's surface. OTC products mimic the different layers of the tear film in order to maintain ocular hydration.

Distilled waters of natural herbs such as Green Tea, Calendula, Chamomile, Hamamelis and Euphrasia are known for their soothing and refreshing properties. Thanks to the combined action of these natural elements, distilled waters-based eyedrops are particularly indicated to relieve eye dryness, irritation and redness of the eyes' mucosa caused by atmospheric agents, environmental factors, and/or use of contact lenses.

"Distilled waters-based eyedrops" medical devices are ophthalmic solutions containing distilled waters able to relieve eye discomfort thanks to their soothing and refreshing action.

For these reasons, an interventional, non-comparative, single-center Post Marketing Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) study was planned to evaluate the performance and safety of "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" used as intended to relieve dry eye symptoms.

The objectives of the PMCF study are confirmation of the performance, collection of additional safety data regarding expected adverse events and detection of potential unexpected adverse events associated with use of "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" according to the IFU.

Each subject, after signing the Informed Consent Form, will enter the screening and baseline phase (the 2 visits will coincide) during which baseline procedures will be completed.

At baseline visit (V0), one of the "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" products will be administered to the enrolled subject.

The patient will perform 2 on site visits (V0 and V2/EOS). To monitor the safety, 1 phone contact is planned (V1) to check for potential adverse events and concomitant medications intake.

The first administration and the intervals at which the treatment should be repeated, to be done as per Investigator judgment and according to the IFU, depend on various factors regarding the physiology of the patients (e.g. type of eye-tear film, anatomy, age), their lifestyle (e.g. use of computer, wearing of contact lenses).

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in Schirmer Test I: to evaluate the performance of "DW-based eyedrops" used as intended to relieve eye mucosa' irritation and redness due to atmospheric agents, environmental factors, and/or use of contact lenses, through Schirmer I test

    Measured: From baseline (V0 = Day 0) at 1 month (EOS/V2 = Day 30)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Change in Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI): to evaluate the performance of the "DW-based eyedrops" used as intended to ensure relief from eye discomfort sensation (e.g. eye strain, dryness, itching, and burning), through OSDI

    Measured: From Baseline (V0 = Day 0) at 1 month (EOS/V2 = Day 30)

  2. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the "Distilled waters-based eyedrops" through Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) - evaluation of symptoms related to dry eye disease (burning, fatigue, discomfort, redness).

    Visual Analogue Scale:

    Minimum value = 0; Maximum value = 10; Higher scores mean a better outcome.

    Measured: End of study visit (EOS/V2 = Day 30)

  3. To evaluate the patient satisfaction of the "DW-based eyedrops" through a 5-points Likert Scale

    Measured: End of study visit (EOS/V2 = Day 30)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Distilled waters based eye drops in people with Dry Eye and Dry Eye Disease, run by C.O.C. Farmaceutici S.r.l. at 1 site in Italy.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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 Apr 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 Italy. 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.

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?

Change in Schirmer Test I: to evaluate the performance of "DW-based eyedrops" used as intended to relieve eye mucosa' irritation and redness due to atmospheric agents, environmental factors, and/or use of contact lenses, through Schirmer I test (time frame: From baseline (V0 = Day 0) at 1 month (EOS/V2 = Day 30)). 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 24 Apr 2023.
