Dry Eye Syndromes
Conditions
Brief summary
This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of two formulations of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion in healthy adults (parallel-group phase). The parallel-group phase will be followed by a paired-eye phase which will evaluate the safety and tolerability of two formulations of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion compared with cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion (RESTASIS®) in patients with dry eye.
Interventions
One drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation A administered to each eye twice daily for 2 days and once in the morning of Day 3.
One drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation B administered to each eye twice daily for 2 days and once in the morning of Day 3.
One drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation A administered to one eye and one drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion 0.05% administered to the opposite eye, twice daily for 1 day.
One drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation B administered to one eye and one drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion 0.05% administered to the opposite eye, twice daily for 1 day.
One drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation A administered to one eye and one drop of cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion Formulation B administered to the opposite eye, twice daily for 1 day.

| Number of Subjects Who Reported Ocular Symptoms During the Parallel-Group Phase (PGP) | 3 Days | Number of subjects who reported ocular symptoms of any severity during the parallel-group phase (PGP) of the study. Subjects evaluated the presence and severity of ocular symptoms in each eye. The severity of each symptom (blurring, foreign body sensation, pain, burning/stinging, tearing, and itching) were recorded on a 5-point scale (0=none, +0.5=very mild,+1=mild, +2=moderate, and +3=severe). |
| Number of Eyes With Ocular Symptoms Post-Dose During the Paired-Eye Phase (PEP) at Day 1 | Day 1 | Number of eyes with ocular symptoms of any severity, post-dose in the paired-eye phase (PEP) at Day 1. Subjects evaluated the presence and severity of ocular symptoms in each eye. The severity of each symptom (blurring, foreign body sensation, pain, burning/stinging, tearing, and itching) were recorded on a 5-point scale (0=none, +0.5=very mild, +1=mild, +2=moderate, and +3=severe). |

Pre-assignment details
This study included a parallel-group phase (PGP) and a paired-eye phase (PEP). The paired-eye phase of the study began after the parallel-group phase completed. The parallel-group phase enrolled healthy volunteers and the paired-eye phase enrolled patients with dry eye symptoms.
