About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Cataract

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who are candidates for routine, uncomplicated cataract surgery.
  • Subjects who, in the Investigator's opinion, have potential postoperative pinhole Snellen visual acuity (VA) of at least 20/200 in the study eye.
  • Subjects who have ≥ Grade 2 (6 - 15 cells) AC cells in the study eye following cataract surgery (postoperative day 1).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects who have a severe/serious ocular condition or history/presence of chronic generalized systemic disease that the Investigator feels might increase the risk to the subject or confound the result(s) of the study.
  • Any intraocular inflammation in either eye (cells or flare score greater than Grade 0 at slit lamp examination) or ocular pain greater than Grade 1 in the study eye at the Screening Visit.
  • Presence of active external ocular disease: infection or inflammation of the study eye.
  • Subjects who have known hypersensitivity or contraindication to the study drug(s) or their components.
  • Subjects who currently require or are expected to require treatment with any medication listed as a disallowed medication per the Disallowed Therapy section of the protocol.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells
Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Grade 0.
Percentage of Participants With Grade 0 Pain
Ocular pain was defined as a positive sensation of the eye, including foreign body sensation, stabbing, throbbing, or aching. The scores ranged from 0=None to 5=Severe, where higher scores indicated worse pain.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells.
Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Grade 0.
Percentage of Participants With Grade 0 Pain
Ocular pain was defined as a positive sensation of the eye, including foreign body sensation, stabbing, throbbing, or aching. The scores ranged from 0=None to 5=Severe, were higher scores indicated worse pain.
Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Flare.
A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens will be performed without pupil dilation. Scattering of a slit lamp light beam when directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). The grades for flare were 0=None to 4=Very Severe effect. Complete resolution was defined as Grade 0.
Percentage of Participants With Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells and Flare.
Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Grade 0. Anterior Chamber Flare: A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens will be performed without pupil dilation. Scattering of a slit lamp light beam when directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). The grades for flare were 0=None to 4=Very Severe effect. Complete resolution was defined as Grade 0.
Change From Baseline Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells and Flare Combined
Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Anterior Chamber Flare: A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens will be performed without pupil dilation. Scattering of a slit lamp light beam when directed into the anterior chamber (Tyndall effect). The grades for flare were 0=None to 4=Very Severe effect. The combined score could be at minimum 0 and at most 8, with higher scores indicating worse outcome.
Percentage of Treatment Failures
Treatment failure was defined as anterior chamber (AC) cell score worsened or remained the same, and the Investigator deemed it necessary to place the participant on rescue therapy. Anterior chamber (AC) cells were assessed using a 0 to 4 grading scale by an ophthalmologist using slip lamp biomicroscopy. A slit lamp examination of the lids, conjunctiva, limbus, cornea, anterior chamber, vitreous, and lens was performed without pupil dilation. Accumulation of white blood cells in aqueous was assessed. Pigment cells and red blood cells are to be ignored. The grades were defined as: 0 = No cells seen; 1 = 1 - 5 cells; 2 = 6 - 15 cells; 3 = 16 - 30 cells; 4 = >30 cells. Complete resolution of AC cells was defined as Grade 0.
