Study of INV-102 Ophthalmic Solution in Adults With Moderate Symptomatic Dry Eye Disease

April 23, 2026 updated by: Invirsa, Inc.

Phase 1/2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Masked, Vehicle-Controlled, Multiple Ascending Dose (Part 1) and Optional Dose Expansion (Part 2) Study of INV-102 Ophthalmic Solution in Adult Subjects With Moderate Symptomatic Dry Eye Disease

Phase 1/2, first-in-human, 2-part study to assess topically administered eyedrops of INV-102 during 2-week repeat dosing in subjects with moderate symptomatic dry eye disease. Part 1 will be a Dose Escalation phase across 4 cohorts of subjects to assess safety and tolerability of INV-102, and Part 2 will be an Optional Dose Expansion phase in a fifth cohort of subjects, pending the outcome of Part 1, to assess efficacy of INV-102 in the treatment of moderate symptomatic dry eye disease.

The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Part 1: Number of Subjects With At Least One (1) Treatment-Emergent Adverse Event
Time Frame: From first dose through study completion (Day 22)
The primary endpoint in Part 1 of this First-in-Human (FIH) study was treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) assessed across multiple dosing concentrations and dosing regimens.
From first dose through study completion (Day 22)
Part 2: Change From Baseline to Day 15 in the Eye Dryness Score From the Dry Eye Disease (DED) Symptom Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: Day 15
The primary endpoint in Part 2 of the study was change from Baseline to Day 15 in the Eye Dryness Score in the study eye from the DED symptom VAS. The dry eye disease symptom visual analog scale consisted of various DED symptom parameters and was completed by subjects for each eye individually. Subjects were asked to rate their discomfort from 0 (no discomfort) to 100 (maximal discomfort) for each of the DED symptoms by placing a single vertical mark on a horizontal line based on the extent of their symptoms.
Day 15

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Part 2: Change From Baseline to Day 15 in the Eye Dryness Composite Score
Time Frame: Day 15
The secondary endpoint in Part 2 of the study was change from Baseline to Day 15 in the Eye Dryness Composite Score in the study eye. The eye dryness composite score (points) combines the change from Baseline in eye dryness score from the DED symptom VAS and the change from Baseline in corneal fluorescein staining score. VAS eye dryness scores were rated by subjects on a scale of 0 (no discomfort) to 100 (maximal discomfort). Corneal fluorescein staining assessments were performed using the National Eye Institute/Industry grading scale to score each of 5 corneal zones on a 0 (no ocular surface disease) to 3 (severe ocular surface disease) scale (with a total score of 0 to 15). The calculated eye dryness composite score can range from -100 points to 100 points (positive values indicate worsening of dry eye disease signs and symptoms; negative values indicate improvement).
