Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of TP-03, 0.25%, an eyedrop, BID vs TID dosing regimens for the treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction in patients with Demodex lid infestation.
Dry Eye Disease (DED) is a disease of the ocular surface which may be secondary to a variety of causes, including cataract surgery. DED is characterized by loss of tear film stability and dry eye symptoms, and its pathogenesis is related to corneal nerve injury, decreased goblet cells, inflammation of the ocular surface, and dysfunction of the meibomian glands (MGD). MGD is the main cause of evaporative DED and can cause irregularity of the ocular surface, affecting the accuracy of the biometric calculation. In addition, it is a risk factor for DED exacerbation after cataract surgery, that may occur in about 40% of cases. Current therapies for DED include artificial tears, warm compresses, manual squeezing of the glands, eyelid hygiene, omega-3 fatty acids, topical cyclosporine, serum tears, topical azithromycin, oral doxycycline. The above therapies in some cases can provide only transient relief, affecting the outcome of cataract surgery and the quality of life of patients. Therefore, stabilization of the ocular surface before cataract surgery is important to achieve better post-operative comfort and a better refractive result. The introduction of LipiFlow thermal pulsation treatment (LTP) represents a controlled method of squeezing the obstructed Meibomian glands by applying heat to the upper and lower eyelids and simultaneously applying pulsatile pressure to the eyelid skin surfaces. The aim of our study will be to evaluate the effect of preoperative LipiFlow therapy in patients with age-related cataracts and mild to moderate MGD in reducing postoperative DED.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of TP-03, an eyedrop, to its vehicle control for the treatment of blepharitis due to Demodex, a microscopic mite frequently found in human hair follicles.
Primary Objective - To evaluate efficacy of Blephademodex eyelid hygiene wipe treatment with a subsequent maintenance period with Blephaclean lid cleansing wipes in Demodex blepharitis, as assessed by the change in ocular symptoms by a Global Discomfort Scale (GDS). Secondary Objectives - To evaluate the efficacy of Blephademodex eyelid hygiene wipe treatment in Demodex blepharitis as assessed by the change alone and in combination with a subsequent maintenance period of treatment with Blephaclean eyelid cleansing wipes ocular symptoms by: adapted TOSS; SANDE; specific blepharitis symptoms; Demodex count; ocular surface redness (Efron scale); lid margin redness/swelling (Efron / custom scale); Dandruff coverage at bases of eyelashes; ocular surface staining (Oxford scale; corneal only) - To evaluate subject and physician satisfaction with Blephademodex eyelid hygiene wipes - To evaluate ease of use for Blephademodex eyelid hygiene wipes - Adverse events are documented and analyzed.
The aim of the study was to compare the efficacy of lid swabs containing tea tree oil (TTO) and chamomile oil and baby shampoo (BS) in the treatment of seborrheic blepharitis.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, Phase 2b trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of NCX 4251 (fluticasone propionate nanocrystal) Ophthalmic Suspension 0.1% QD for the treatment of acute exacerbations of blepharitis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and efficacy of TP-03, 0.25%, an eyedrop, to its vehicle control for the treatment of blepharitis due to Demodex, a microscopic mite frequently found in human hair follicles. The hypothesis for the study is the proportion of participants cured at Day 43 with treatment by TP-03, 0.25%, is greater than the proportion cured by treatment with its vehicle.
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AXR-270 Cream in treating posterior blepharitis associated with Meibomian Gland Disease (MGD)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of lid wipes containing terpinen-4-ol and sodium hyaluronate (Hy-ter®) for the treatment of seborrheic blepharitis compared to baby shampoo.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, Phase 2 study evaluating the safety and tolerability of NCX 4251 (fluticasone propionate nanocrystal) Ophthalmic Suspension 0.1% QD and BID for the treatment of acute exacerbations of blepharitis. The study will be performed in two sequential dose escalating cohorts. The study is designed to select the dose(s) of NCX 4251 to advance into the next stage of development, and to assess the safety and tolerability of NCX 4251 Ophthalmic Suspension.
