Filter by:Evaluate the tolerability, efficacy and safety of VOS versus Restasis® in subjects with mild to moderate Dry Eye Disease (DED).
This study is being conducted to evaluate the short-term (1 month) safety and effectiveness of a single TearCare procedure to treat adult patients with dry eye disease. NOTE: All sites have been selected for this study.
The study aims to compare the differences of ocular surface features in controls and patients with diabetes and dry eye syndrome, to thoroughly evaluate the ocular surface health of diabetics, and to find out the relationship between dry eye syndrome and diabetes
The study evaluates the safety, ocular tolerability and efficacy of emulsion eye drops with sacha inchi seed oil, trehalose and hyaluronic acid in the treatment of moderate or severe dry eye in adult patients. The investigative device is studied in comparison with control eye drops containing hyaluronic acid for up to 30 days.
Rationale: Serum eye drops (SEDs) are used to treat patients with severe signs and symptoms of dry eyes and other corneal defects. Serum is used in severe ophthalmic cases where conventional treatment and/or eye drops (artificial tears) have insufficient effect. The use of SEDs in dry eye patients usually has a rapid effect. Most patients claim the effect to be instantaneous, and most symptoms improve within 48-72 hours. There is evidence suggesting that substances in serum may help in the healing of epithelial defects, such as epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, fibronectin, and/or vitamin A. However, the precise serum factor responsible for alleviating the patient's complaints is currently not known. SEDs are considered as a blood product under EU blood legislation (Directive 2002/98/EC), as well as in New Zealand and Australia. Commonly, autologous SEDs are used, but they are replaced more and more by allogeneic SEDs prepared from donor serum. Allogeneic SEDs are derived from healthy voluntary, non-remunerated male donors with blood group AB, and have the benefit of blood bank controlled quality. They can be delivered from stock and are therefore quickly available for each patient. For application of eye drops, generally administration systems with a drop size of 40 to 50 µl are used, further on referred to as conventional sized eye drops. From previous studies done with medicinal eye drops, it has been shown that smaller eye drops, so called micro drops, can be just as effective and sometimes even superior to conventional drops for treatment of eye disease. If micro drops are just as effective or maybe even superior to conventional sized eye drops is currently unknown for the use of SEDs. This study will compare the feasibility and effectiveness of allogeneic serum micro eye drops using the mu-Drop applicator to the conventional sized allogeneic eye drops using the Meise applicator. Both systems have a closed manufacturing system. Objective: The main objective is to determine whether the administration of allogeneic serum micro eye drops is non-inferior in terms of effectiveness and safety as compared to the conventional sized drops. Main study parameters/endpoints: The primary endpoint is the improvement in OSDI score by using SEDs (OSDI score after treatment minus OSDI score before treatment), independent of the drop size, showing non-inferiority for the use of micro drops as compared to conventional sized drops.
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
Phase I clinical study, to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the preservative-free ophthalmic solution PRO-087 versus Xyel Ofteno® and Systane Ultra®, on the ocular surface of ophthalmological and clinically healthy subjects. Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of the preservative-free formulation PRO-087 manufactured by Laboratorios Sophia S.A. of C.V. on the ocular surface of clinically healthy subjects. Hypothesis: The ophthalmic solution PRO-087 presents a profile of safety and tolerability similar to comparators in healthy subjects Methodology: Phase I clinical trial, controlled, of parallel groups, double blind, randomized, exploratory.
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.
Subjective and objective evaluation of the efficacy and tolerability of preservative-free "Ectoin® Eye Spray - Colloidal" and comparison of the efficacy and tolerability between "Ectoin® Eye Spray - Colloidal" and Tears Again® in patients with mild-moderate dry eye disease
Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD) is one of the most common causes of dry eye diseases. Over the past decade, several treatment options in MGD have been extensively studied including warm compression, lid hygiene, ocular lubricants, forceful expression, LipiFlow thermal pulsation system, intraductal probing, debridement scaling and intense pulsed light (IPL). IPL is a broad spectrum, non-coherent and polychromatic light source with a wavelength spectrum of 500-1200 nm. It can be filtered to allow only a range of wavelengths to be emitted. Different wavelength makes different depth of tissue to absorb a specific light energy. Intense pulsed light (IPL) has been widely used in dermatology as a therapeutic tool for removal of hypertrichosis, benign cavernous hemangioma, benign venous malformations, telangiectasia, port-wine stain and pigmented lesions. Concurrent ocular surface improvements have been observed in patients undergone IPL treatment. Very few prospective clinical trials showed that subjective dry eye symptoms decreased and some of the dry eye signs also improved. Nonetheless, there is still inconsistency in the efficacy of IPL among these studies. Biomarkers, specifically cytokines, in dry eye diseases have been studied to some extent. Moreover, the change in ocular surface inflammatory cytokines in patients with MGD after IPL treatment is unclear. The investigators proposed a prospective randomized double-masked sham-controlled clinical trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of intense pulse light in MGD patients.
