This is an interventional treatment trial for Bacterial Conjunctivitis focused on measuring pink eye, conjunctivitis, moxifloxacin, fluoroquinolone

Eligibility Criteria

1 Month - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosed with bacterial conjunctivitis in 1 or both eyes;

  • Agrees to comply with the visit schedule and other requirements of the study;
  • Other protocol-specified inclusion criteria may apply.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Signs and symptoms of bacterial conjunctivitis for longer than 4 days prior to Day 1;
  • Presence of concomitant viral infection;
  • Infants with ophthalmia neonatorum of gonococcal, Chlamydia, herpetic or chemical origin;
  • Infants whose birth mothers had any sexually transmitted disease within 1 month prior to delivery;
  • Infants undergoing treatment for retinopathy of prematurity;
  • Contact lens wear during the course of the study;
  • Only 1 sighted eye or vision in either eye not correctable to 0.6 logMAR units (20/80) or better;
  • Use of medications, as specified in the protocol;
  • Any systemic or ocular disease or disorder, complicating factors or structural abnormality that could negatively affect the conduct or outcome of the study;

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Clinical Cure at the Day 4 (EOT)/Exit Visit
    Clinical cure was attained if the sum of the 2 cardinal ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis (bulbar conjunctival injection and conjunctival discharge/exudate) was zero (ie, normal or absent) 12-48 hours after the last dose. Clinical cure was reported as a percentage. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Microbiological Success at the Day 4 (EOT)/Exit Visit
    Microbiological success was attained if the pre-therapy bacterial pathogens were eradicated 12-48 hours after the last dose. Microbiological success is reported as a percentage. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
