Inclusion criteria

  • Subject-reported history of dry eye disease in both eyes for at least 6 months;
  • History of use of artificial tear eye drops for dry eye symptoms;
  • Total score of ≥40 on SANDE;
  • TFBUT;
  • Corneal fluorescein staining;
  • Lissamine green conjunctival staining;
  • Schirmer's test score.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have participated in a previous tavilermide (MIM-D3) study;
  • Have slit lamp findings at Visit 1;
  • Have a history of lacrimal duct obstruction within 12 months of Visit 1;
  • Have an uncontrolled systemic disease;

  • Have a condition or be in a situation which the investigator feels may put the subject at significant risk, may confound the study results, or may interfere significantly with the subject's participation in the study;
  • Be currently enrolled in an drug or device study or have used an investigational drug or device within 45 days prior to Visit 1.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Childbearing potential

Able to become pregnant: from the first period until menopause, unless permanently unable to through surgery (removal of the womb, or of both ovaries or both fallopian tubes).

Criteria for people of childbearing potential usually ask for a negative pregnancy test and for contraception during the study and for a time after it.

Contraception

Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.

Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Total Corneal Fluorescein Staining as Measured by the NEI Scale

    The National Eye Institute (NEI) scale is a standardized grading system of 0-3 was used for each of the 5 areas on each cornea (central, superior, temporal, nasal, and inferior). Grade 0 was specified when no staining is present. The maximum score was 15.

    Time frame: Baseline to Day 85

  2. Change From Baseline in Eye Dryness Score as Measured by the VAS

    The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) where subjects were asked to rate their eye dryness (OU) by placing a vertical mark on the horizontal line to indicate their current level of discomfort. 0 mm corresponds to "No Discomfort," and 100 mm corresponds to "Maximal Discomfort." The length of the assessment line is 100 mm.

    Time frame: Baseline to Day 85

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2023 to primary completion in May 2024, 10 months.

Of 81 industry-sponsored phase 3 interventional studies under Dry Eye Syndromes, half reached primary completion within 9 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 6 and three quarters within 15. This study's 10 months is above that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 96 studies reached it within 10 months; a quarter within 7 and three quarters within 15.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Jun 10, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
