About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Bacterial Conjunctivitis focused on measuring pink eye, conjunctivitis, moxifloxacin, fluoroquinolone
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosed with bacterial conjunctivitis in 1 or both eyes;
- Able to understand and sign an informed consent form. If subject is <18 years of age, the informed consent must be understood and signed by the subject's legally authorized representative;
- 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;
- Known or suspected allergy or hypersensitivity to fluoroquinolones;
- Pregnant, lactating, or of childbearing potential and not using adequate birth control to prevent pregnancy;
- Other protocol-specified exclusion criteria may apply.

Moxifloxacin AF vehicle, 1 drop in each eye twice daily for 3 days
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.
