Phase III Confirmatory Study of DE-089 Ophthalmic Solution in Patients With Dry Eye

August 8, 2014 updated by: Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Double-masked Comparison Study of DE-089 Ophthalmic Solution in Patients With Dry Eye (Multi-center Study, in Comparison to 0.1% Sodium Hyaluronate Ophthalmic Solution) - Phase III Confirmatory Study -

To investigate that the efficacy of 3% DE-089 ophthalmic solution (one drop at a time, 6 times daily, 4 weeks topical administration), in comparison to 0.1% sodium hyaluronate ophthalmic solution (0.1% HA) (one drop at a time, 6 times daily, 4 weeks topical administration), is at least non-inferior in the change in fluorescein staining score, and is superior in the change in Rose bengal score, in a multicenter, double-masked, parallel-group comparison study. Safety profile will likewise be compared.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change in Fluorescein Staining Score From Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline and 4-week (discontinued (LOCF))

Fluorescein staining was scored according to the protocol by Shimmura et al. The cornea was divided into 3 equal zones: upper, middle, and lower. Each zone had a staining score ranging between 0 and 3 points, with minimum and maximum total staining scores ranging between 0 and 9 points. 0 is better.

The degree of staining with Fluorescein dyes was scored as follows: 0 = no staining, 1= staining of less than half of the area, 2= staining of more than half of the area, 3= staining in the whole area.

Baseline and 4-week (discontinued (LOCF))
Mean Change in Rose Bengal Staining Score From Baseline
Time Frame: Baseline and 4-week (discontinued (LOCF))

Rose bengal staining were scored according to the protocol by Shimmura et al. The ocular surface was divided into 5 zones: nasal and temporal conjunctival, and upper, middle, and lower corneal areas. A staining score between 0 and 3 points was used in each zone, with the minimum and maximum total staining scores ranging between 0 and 15 points.0 is better.

The degree of staining with Rose bengal dyes was scored as follows: 0 = no staining, 1= staining of less than half of the area, 2= staining of more than half of the area, 3= staining in the whole area.
