November 3, 2014 updated by: Laboratoires Thea

Efficacy and Safety Assessment of Azyter® Eye Drops (T1225) in Patients With Blepharitis (Pilot Phase II Clinical Study, Multicentre, Randomised, Double Masked, Comparative, 2 X 40 Patients)

The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of T1225 eye drops versus placebo eye drops on the global ocular discomfort (VAS).

Detailed Description

Currently, topical antibiotic ointments are used for blepharitis. They provide prolonged contact time with the lid margin but with little penetration into eyelid tissue. Azithromycin eye drops may offer on advantage over these preparations because azithromycin achieves sustained high concentration in various ocular tissues including the lid margin.

Patients will be treated during 7 days (1 drop twice daily the first day following by one drop once daily for 6 days) following by a period of 2 weeks without treatment. This therapeutic scheme will be repeated two times.

Efficacy will be evaluated by change from baseline (Day 0) to Day 63 ± 3 Days of the global ocular discomfort evaluation (VAS).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS - Ranges 0-100 mm)
Time Frame: Baseline and D63 (D63 minus baseline)
The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment by the change from baseline (Day 0) to Day 63 (± 3 Days) of the global ocular discomfort (Visual Analogue Scale) (Decrease of VAS value = better outcome)
Baseline and D63 (D63 minus baseline)
