Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Corneal Fluorescein Staining | Day 29 | — |
| Ocular Dryness | 28 Days | Patient-derived, daily dryness symptoms for the 28 day time period will be be averaged to obtain a dryness score for the entire 28-day period. Average dryness scores over the 28-day treatment period will be compared between 1% MIM-D3 and placebo using t-tests. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Total Ocular Fluorescein Staining | Day 29 | — |
| Ocular Discomfort | 28 Days | Patient-derived daily diary ocular discomfort symptoms for the 28 day time period will be averaged to obtain an ocular discomfort score for the entire 28-day period. Average ocular discomfort scores over the 28-day treatment period will be compared between 1% MIM-D3 and placebo using t-tests. |
Other
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Fluorescein staining (Ora CalibraTM Scale) | Day 15, 29 and 57 | Fluorescein Staining, (pre and post-CAESM; by individual region: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, conjunctival sum, and total), by both grade and clearance of staining; |
| Lissamine green staining (Ora CalibraTM Scale,) | Day 15, 29 and 57 | Lissamine green staining (pre and post-CAESM; regions: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, conjunctival sum, and total) |
| Subject diary individual symptoms | 28-day and 56-day treatment periods | — |
| Tear film break-up time | Day 15, 29 and 57 | Tear film break-up time (pre and post-CAESM); |
