Active clinical trials for "Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca"

Phase II, comparative, controlled, multicenter, parallel group, open, randomized clinical study. The main outcome variable will be the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire. Three dosage schemes of topical ophthalmic application of Multidose Lagricel® Ofteno (Sodium Hyaluronate 0.4%; preservative free) are to be evaluated in patients diagnosed with mild to severe dry eye. Each group will be exposed to one of the following administration schemes: 1 drop bis in die (BID), 1 drop quater in die (QID), or 1 drop six times per day; instillation will take place in both eyes (OU).

Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Two Concentrations (0.4% and 1%) of ALY688 Ophthalmic Solution in Subjects with Dry Eye Disease

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether SkQ1 Ophthalmic Solution is safe and effective compared to Vehicle for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of dry eye syndrome.

In patients with moderate to severe dry eye syndrome, the test drug (HA 0.15% eye drop) or the control drug (cyclosporin 0.05% eye drop) is administered for 12 weeks, and the corneal staining of each group would be evaluated. The study objective is to demonstrate that the test drug is not clinically inferior to the control drug. Furthermore, the efficacy of combination therapy would be evaluated through exploratory combination therapy group.

The proposed 36-month Post Approval Efficacy Study (PAES) is a prospective, interventional, multicentre study to explore the long-term evolution of signs and symptoms, and occurrence of complications in Dry Eye Disease (DED) patients with severe keratitis receiving Ikervis® (1mg/mL ciclosporin) eye drops administered once daily

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of OC-01 Nasal Spray as compared to placebo on signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.

To investigate the safety and efficacy of DE-101 to improve the signs and symptoms in dry-eye disease.

The "dry eye syndrome" DES is a highly prevalent ocular disease, in particular in the elderly population. One mainstay of therapy for patients suffering from DES is the use of topically administered lubricants. However, despite many efforts, no "ideal" formulation has yet been found. Recently, Croma Pharma has introduced chitosan-N-acetylcysteine eye drops, designed for treatment of symptoms related to DES. Chemically, chitosan is a polycationic biopolymer with favourable biological properties such as high biocompatibility and low toxicity. Additionally, the new formulation comprises N-acetylcysteine, which has been used in ophthalmology because of its mucolytic properties for several years. Based on theoretical considerations, one can hypothesize that the new chitosan derivative may show an increased adhesion to mucins of the ocular surface and may therefore be particularly beneficial in reducing the symptoms associated with DES. We have recently shown in a phase I trial that single instillation of chitosan-N-acetylcysteine eye drops is well tolerated in young healthy subjects. However, due to the fact that intraocular pressure has been measured as one of the main safety variables, topical anesthesia was necessary. Thus, the data about local ocular discomfort after administration are limited. This trial seeks to investigate whether single instillation of chitosan-N-acetylcystein leads to ocular discomfort such as burning and stinging.

The purpose of this study is to test a protocol investigating the efficacy of omega-3 fatty acids in treating dry eye disease. The study is termed "feasibility" because its purpose is to demonstrate an ability to execute the proposed protocol with compliance at two sites rather than generate statistically relevant data concerning the safety and efficacy of the supplement in patients with dry eye disease.
