Brief summary
The objectives of this study are twofold * To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 0.1% AGN-195263 administered twice daily compared to its vehicle in patients with evaporative dry eye (EDE) * To evaluate the systemic pharmacokinetics of 0.1% AGN-195263 administered twice daily in patients with EDE
Interventions
1 drop of AGN-195263 will be instilled in each eye twice daily.
1 drop of AGN-195263 vehicle (placebo) will be instilled in each eye twice daily.

Outcome results
Overall Ocular Discomfort Score (0 to 4 Scale; 0=None, 4=Very Severe)
The overall ocular discomfort will be assessed on a questionnaire using a 0 to 4 scale on which 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe and 4=very severe.
Time frame: 6 month visit
Population: Efficacy analyses including the overall ocular discomfort score were planned for the intent-to-treat (ITT) population who are defined as all randomized patients. Ultimately, these analyses were not fully performed due to the early termination of the study and only six patients reaching the 6 month visit.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| AGN-195263 | Overall Ocular Discomfort Score (0 to 4 Scale; 0=None, 4=Very Severe) | 1.66 Score on a scale | Standard Deviation 0.513 |
| Vehicle | Overall Ocular Discomfort Score (0 to 4 Scale; 0=None, 4=Very Severe) | 1.75 Score on a scale | Standard Deviation 0.204 |
Change From Baseline in Tearfilm Break Up Time (TBUT)
For TBUT, the mean of 3 measurements of time in seconds will be computed at each visit for each eye. The mean value of the study eye will be used for analysis
Time frame: Baseline (day 1) to 6 month visit
Population: Efficacy analyses including the change from baseline in Tearfilm Break Up Time (TBUT) were planned. Ultimately, these analyses were not fully performed due to the early termination of the study and only six patients reaching the 6 month visit.
