Study summary

The objectives of this study are to compare the efficacy and safety of tanfanercept ophthalmic solution 0.25% and 1.0% to vehicle for the treatment of DED.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this research study is to test the safety and effectiveness (how well the drug works) of Tanfanercept ophthalmic solution 0.25% and Tanfanercept ophthalmic solution 1% against vehicle (no active treatment). Effectiveness will be measured by the improvement in Schirmer Test results (a test to see how many tears you produce), reduction of dry eye symptoms, eye redness (conjunctival redness), and eye surface irritation (corneal staining, conjunctival staining). Eye safety assessments will also be performed.
