Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

Elimination Criteria

  • Withdrawal of their consent to participate in the study ( form).

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.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

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.

Hypersensitivity

An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Incidence Unexpected Related Adverse Reactions

    Any unfavorable medical condition affecting the subject after the administration of the investigation product, related to such intervention.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), 8 (Final Visit) and 12 (Safety Call) after the inclusion of each subject.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in the ocular comfort index (OCI) score in between interventions

    Changes in the Ocular Comfort Index (OCI) score in between interventions, the subjects will be questioned regarding this symptoms' incidence.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

  2. Changes in Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA)

    The BCVA will be evaluated through Snellen chart.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

  3. Changes in tear film breakup time

    The most common method for assessing stability is with fluorescein. The precorneal layer colored with fluorescein will change to less fluorescent or non-fluorescent regions. The time from the last blink to the appearance of these regions is the tear film breakup time.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

  4. Changes in intraocular pressure (IOP)

    Previous instillation of topical anesthetic, the IOP will be measured through a Goldmann tonometer during visits.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

  5. Changes in the integrity of the ocular surface (fluorescein staining)

    Changes in the integrity of the ocular surface using fluorescein staining and evaluated through the Oxford scale. The standard Oxford scale for fluorescein staining has the following criteria: Grade 0- Equal to or less than panel A; Grade I- Equal to or less than panel B, greater than panel A; Grade II- Equal to or less than panel C, greater than panel B; Grade III- Equal or less than panel D, greater than panel C; Grade IV- Equal or less than panel E, greater than panel D; Grade V- Greater than panel E.

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

  6. Changes in lissamine green staining

    Direct observation with slit lamp, graded according to (changes in ocular surface staining using the Sjögren's International Collaborative Clinical Alliance \[SICCA\].)

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 days. Evaluations will take place on days 0 (Basal Visit), and 8 (Final Visit) after the inclusion of each subject.

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

Start is estimated for Dec 2025; primary completion for Dec 2026, 12 months later.

Of 34 phase 1 interventional studies under Dry Eye Syndromes, half reached primary completion within 6 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 4 and three quarters within 13. This study's planned 12 months is above that.

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 Mar 19, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
