Clinical Trial Summary

This study is a multicentric, comparative, randomized, investigator-blinded, in parallel groups study to demonstrate the non-inferiority of DM05 in comparison with Optive™, in terms of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score) on patients with moderate to severe ocular dryness, after 35 days of treatment.

Description:

Evaluation of the non-inferiority of DM05 in comparison with OptiveTM, in terms of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score), on worse eye, between D0 and D35.

• Comparison of D35 versus D0 and D84 versus D0 for each product and comparison between products for the following parameters:

• Evolution of cornea and conjunctiva staining (Oxford score) on worse eye.

• Evolution of OSDI score (Ocular Surface Disease Index).

• Evolution of Van Bijsterveld score (Lissamine green staining) in worse eye.

• Evolution of Schirmer test result in worse eye.

• Evolution of Tear film Break-Up Time (TBUT) in worse eye.

• Evolution of ocular dryness severity by evaluation of each main symptom by the patient and total score of all symptoms

• Evaluation of treatment performance by the investigator and the patient.

• Evaluation of the average frequency of use during 84 days for DM05 and OptiveTM.

Selection visit: D-14 to D-7

Wash-out period: 1 to 2 weeks with preservative-free 0.9% NaCl at 3 drops per day (Hydrabak®):
