Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Incidence of Related Unexpected Adverse Events (AE) | Day 10 | Presence/absence of related non expected adverse events |
| Ocular Comfort Index | Day 8 | Ocular Comfort Index (OCI) Questionnaire for evaluation of dry eye symptoms in a scale from 0 to 100. Greater scores mean a worse outcome. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Conjunctival and Corneal Staining With Fluorescein | Day 8 | Conjunctival and corneal staining with fluorescein. The evaluation will take place after applying the fluorescein tain on the ocular surface and evaluating the resulting staining pattern. This will be measured through the Oxford scale which includes 6 grades: Absent (0), Minimal (I), Mild (II), Moderate (III), Marked (IV), Severe (V). |
| Changes in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) | Baseline vs Day 8 | Visual acuity (VA) is a test of visual function. It will be evaluated with the Snellen chart. The Snellen chart is the standard tool used to evaluate visual acuity. It was located in a place with adequate lighting, natural or artificial and at a distance of 3 meters from the subject to be evaluated. The contralateral eye to which it will be evaluated is covered, then the examiner detects until the line can clearly see the letters given he or she a score, the normal score for a VA is 20/20.This score can be expressed in fraction (i.e. 20/20) decimal (i.e. 1.0), or LogMAR (i.e. 0) formats. In this study, VA is expressed in decimal format. In decimal format, a lower number is a worse outcome. |
| Chemosis Incidence | Day 8 | Chemosis incidence will be evaluated at the end of the treatment at the final visit |
| Conjunctival Hyperemia | Day 8 | Rate of conjunctival hyperemia will be evaluated through the Efron scale which includes 5 grades: Normal (0), Very Mild (I), Mild (II), Moderate (3), and Severe (4). |
| Conjunctival and Corneal Staining With Lissamine Green | Day 8 | Conjunctival and corneal staining with lissamine green. The evaluation will take place after applying the lissamine green stain on the ocular surface and evaluating the resulting staining pattern. This will be measured through the Oxford scale which includes 6 grades: Absent (0), Minimal (I), Mild (II), Moderate (III), Marked (IV), Severe (V). |

Outcome results
Incidence of Related Unexpected Adverse Events (AE)
Presence/absence of related non expected adverse events
Time frame: Day 10
Population: The manifested adverse events during the conduction of this trial were obtained during trial visits and reported in the electronic CRF, where the clinical team of the center included the information from source documents. These were previously checked by the monitor team, pharmacovigilance specialist, and the medical specialist part of the sponsor's crew to verify adherence to stipulated procedures in the protocol.
| Arm | Measure | Value (NUMBER) |
|---|---|---|
| PRO-172 | Incidence of Related Unexpected Adverse Events (AE) | 12 Number of unexpected related AE |
Ocular Comfort Index
Ocular Comfort Index (OCI) Questionnaire for evaluation of dry eye symptoms in a scale from 0 to 100. Greater scores mean a worse outcome.
Time frame: Day 8
Population: The manifested adverse events during the conduction of this trial were obtained during trial visits and reported in the electronic CRF, where the clinical team of the center included the information from source documents. These were previously checked by the monitor team, pharmacovigilance specialist, and the medical specialist part of the sponsor's crew to verify concordance with what was stipulated in the protocol.
