What is being measured

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

  1. Changes from Baseline utilizing University of North Carolina Dry Eye Management Scale (UNC DEMS) Scores

    The UNC Dry Eye Management Scale (DEMS) helps evaluate different aspects of DED, including symptoms, severity, and impact on daily life. Dry eye symptoms such as grittiness, dryness, foreign body sensation, redness, tearing, and irritation. The UNC DEMS is used in clinical settings to inform treatment decisions and monitor the effectiveness of interventions. UNC DEMS scores are on a scale from 1-10, with 10 being the most severe. The changes will be evaluated from baseline and at timepoints 30 ±5 days, 60 ±5 days and 90 ±5 days.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 4 months.

  2. Changes from Baseline utilizing Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI)

    Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) Questionnaire is a 12-question survey used to measure the symptoms of dry eye disease. Each of the 12 individual questions rate each of the dry eye symptoms on a 0-4 scale. The results are calculated in an overall scale that ranges from 0-100, with 100 being severe dry eye symptoms and 0 being no dry eye symptoms. The changes will be evaluated from baseline and at timepoints 30 ±5 days, 60 ±5 days and 90 ±5 days.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 4 months.

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes from baseline utilizing the NIH Eye Score for chronic oGVHD

    The NIH Eye Score is a recommended measure, as it detects improvement or worsening in ocular chronic GVHD. Scoring from 0 to 3 is based on symptoms, need for eye drops, and use of therapeutic procedures or devices.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 4 months.

  2. Changes from Baseline Oxford Schema for Corneal and Conjunctival Stain Grades

    Oxford Schema for Corneal and Conjunctival Staining is a diagnostic test that looks for signs of damage or dryness in the eye. It involves a doctor applying dye to the eye to show areas of damage on its surface. The Oxford grading scale divides corneal staining into 6 groups according to severity: 0 = absent, I = minimal, II = mild, III = moderate, IV = marked, and V = severe. The changes will be evaluated from baseline and at timepoints 30 ±5 days, 60 ±5 days and 90±5 days.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 4 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing d-MAPPS and PI and Patient Masked in people with oGHVD, run by Regenerative Ocular Immunobiologics LLC at 6 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 8 inclusion and 17 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Changes from Baseline utilizing University of North Carolina Dry Eye Management Scale (UNC DEMS) Scores (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 4 months.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 8 Jul 2026.
