Active clinical trials for "Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca"

This is a prospective, single site, randomized, double masked, comparator-controlled study designed to evaluate the efficacy of lifitegrast ophthalmic solution 5% in treating the symptoms of dry eye in soft contact lens wearers as compared to control. We hypothesize that there will be a significant improvement in dry eye symptoms in contact lens wearers using lifitegrast as compared to those being treated with control (lifitegrast vehicle).

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).

Dry eye disease is multifactorial, ocular inflammatory condition causing irritation, stinging sensation, uneasiness and blurring. Non-Sjogren syndrome occurs due to absent or dysfunction of lacrimal gland. Fat soluble vitamin D act as an agent against inflammation and its deficiency may result in various inflammatory diseases including dry eye. Purpose of this study is evaluation of vitamin D3 supplementation role in treating non-Sjogren dry eye along with conventional treatment by using artificial tears in patients with hypovitaminosis D. A prospective study was conducted in Rural health center(RHC) Buchal Kalan on 108 patients presenting with non-Sjogren dry eyes and low serum vitamin D levels. Patients were subjected to the following examination; best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), slit-lamp examination, applanation tonometry, fundoscopy, tear breakup time (TBUT) after fluorescein staining, Schirmer tear test, numerical pain rating scale (NPRS) and ocular surface disease index (OSDI) score on day 0, 15, 30, 60 and 90. Vitamin D levels was assessed by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) based analyzer. The sample was randomly divided into two groups by non-probability purposive sampling. Group 1 received only artificial tears 4times/day while group 2 were given oral vitamin D3 supplementation of 6000 international unit (IU) daily along with artificial tears. Impact of oral vitamin D3 supplementation on non-Sjogren dry eyes was assessed by comparing means of ocular parameters of both groups over different period of time by using Mann-Whitney Test and Friedman Test.

The objective of this study was to compare the safety and efficacy of tanfanercept ophthalmic solution 0.25% with placebo for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye.

Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that results in symptoms of discomfort, visual disturbance, and tear film instability with potential damage to the ocular surface. It is accompanied by increased osmolarity of the tear film and inflammation of the ocular surface. Lubricin is a mucin-like glycoprotein originally discovered in synovial fluid, as a secreted product of cells that line the joint tissues, which is present at the surface of articular cartilage and it has been investigated on its roles at the ocular surface, in normal and pathologic conditions such as dry eye. The objective of the study is to assess the tolerability, safety and efficacy of Lubricin eye drops solution administered over 4 weeks versus sodium hyaluronate (Na-HY) eye drops solution in subjects with moderate dry eye.

This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of a new eye drop formulation in patients with dry eye disease.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and tolerability of SYSTANE® Complete in adult patients with dry eye disease. Fluorescein-stained tear film break-up time (TFBUT) will be evaluated as the primary objective.

A multicenter, Randomized, Double blind, Restasis®-controlled Non-inferiority, Moisview® Eye Drops-controlled Superiority, Phase III Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of HU007 Eye Drops in Patients with Dry Eye Syndrome

Title of the study: Phase I clinical trial, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the ophthalmic gel PRO-167 versus Corneregel®, on the ocular surface of ophthalmological and clinically healthy subjects. Methodology: Phase I clinical trial, controlled, of parallel groups, double blind, randomized, exploratory. Goals: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the ophthalmic gel PRO-167 manufactured by Laboratorios Sophia S.A. of C.V. on the ocular surface of clinically healthy subjects. Hypothesis: Ophthalmic gel PRO-167 has a safety and tolerability profile similar to that of its comparator in healthy subjects.

A double-masked, randomized, multi-center, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study in adult patients with Dry Eye Disease (DED). Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either SJP-0035 0.001% or placebo
