Dry eye disease is a very frequent pathology that importantly affects the quality of life of patients; in spite of the common use of eye lubricants to ameliorate symptoms, there is still a large number of patients who do not present improvement of the disease or they worsen. Although its etiology is varied, the imbalance of the immune system plays a substantial role in the development of dry eye disease. Rapamycin or sirolimus is an anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory drug that has an enormous potential in ocular surface pathologies such as dry eye disease. The aim of the present study is to determine the effectiveness and security of subconjunctival application of a new formulated drug of liposomal sirolimus in patients with moderate and severe dry eye disease. This is a randomized placebo-controlled double blind clinical trial. Patients presenting data of moderate or severe dry eye disease will be randomized into two groups. One group will receive additional to the conventional treatment, subconjunctival injections of liposomal sirolimus; meanwhile the other group will receive subconjunctival placebo injections. After intervention the effectiveness and the security of the liposomal sirolimus will be evaluated.
Study design: Phase I-II clinical trial, comparative, non-inferiority with active control, parallel groups, double blind with randomisation. Safety analysis when completing the visits of the first 12 subjects of the Nanodrop® group, if there are less than 20% of unexpected Events (EA), related to the research product, recruitment is continued until the sample is completed for efficacy analysis objectives Security: Evaluate the safety of the ophthalmic application of Nanodrop® by quantifying the incidence of unexpected Adverse Events (EA) related to the research product (PI). Effectiveness: Demonstrate the non-inferiority of Nanodrop® compared to Systane® Balance, in the efficacy of the treatment of patients with dry eye, by means of the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI). Hypothesis Security: H0 = Nanodrop® is safe in its ophthalmic application as it presents an incidence of unexpected adverse events related to the research drug, less than 20% of the population of Nanodrop® safety group. H1 = Nanodrop® is not safe in its ophthalmic application, as it presents an incidence of unexpected adverse events related to the research drug, exceeding 20% of the population of Nanodrop® safety group. Effectiveness: H0 = Nanodrop® is lower than Systane® Balance by more than 5 points in the OSDI test score. H1 = Nanodrop® is lower than Systane® Balance by 5 points or less in the OSDI test score. Number of subjects: n = 126 evaluable subjects 63 evaluable subjects per group (both eyes). Main inclusion criteria: Dry eye diagnosis Duration of intervention treatment: 28 days Approximate duration of the subject in the study: 35 days
Dry eye is a common ocular surface disease of multifactorial etiology characterized by elevated tear osmolality and inflammation leading to a disrupted ocular surface. The latter is a risk factor for ocular surface infection, yet overt infection is not commonly seen clinically in the typical dry eye patient. This suggests that important innate mechanisms operate to protect the dry eye from invading pathogens. Understand the pathogenesis of dry eye will be the measure to prevention and treatment of dry eye. In this essay, the investigators use the data of experiment in the patients with dry eye and normal, acquire their tear production, tear film stability, and surface damage. The investigators use weka to calculate the prediction accuracy of the 6 algorithm and select the best one, optimize the parameters to get the final prediction accuracy.
The purpose of this study is to refit habitual wearers of daily disposable contact lenses who currently experience symptoms of dry eye and discomfort during lens wear with a different type of daily disposable contact lens. Ocular signs and symptoms of dry eye will be assessed following the guidelines outlined by the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) in the Dry Eye Workshop II (DEWS II). The performance of the habitual contact lenses and the study lenses will be determined using different optometric assessments. Study lenses will be worn for one month following a daily disposable wear schedule.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic characteristics of GLH8NDE after single and multiple ocular administrations in healthy Korean and Caucasian volunteers
To study the efficacy of an ocular bandage contact lens for the treatment of dry eye after cataract surgery
A clinical trial using Senofilcon A daily lenses in the treatment of moderate to severe dry eye. This a comparison between signs and symptoms prior to and during treatment.
LacryDiag is a new Conformity European (CE) marked diagnostic imaging device devoted to the analysis of the ocular surface. It is an "all in one" device that provides 4 data: non-invasive break-up time (Non-Invasive Break-Up-Time (NIBUT) without fluorescein eye drop); height of the Tear Meniscus (TM); an infrared image of the meibomian glands; a picture of the lacrimal film by interferometry. it's performance will be compare between in diagnosing dry eye syndrome with the standard clinical evaluation, in 80 patients suffering from dry eye diseases and followed at the consultation of the Ophthalmology department of the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of HBM9036 Ophthalmic Solution versus placebo in the treatment of dry eye
