A Phase 3 interventional study of STN1013800 (0.1% Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride) eye drops in single dose containers and Placebo (0% Oxymetazoline Hydrochloride) eye drops in single dose containers in Acquired Blepharophimosis, sponsored by Santen SAS. Recruiting at 36 sites in 9 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 75 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-05-04.

A Randomised, Double-Masked, Placebo-Controlled Phase 3 Study on the Efficacy and Safety of STN1013800 (Oxymetazoline HCl 0.1% Eye Drops) used twice daily (BID) in the Treatment of Acquired Blepharoptosis
This is a randomised, double-masked, placebo-controlled Phase 3 study of the safety and efficacy of STN1013800 in the treatment of acquired blepharoptosis.
Subjects diagnosed with acquired blepharoptosis who meet eligibility criteria at Visit 1 (Screening) will return within 8 days for Visit 2 (Baseline, Day 1). At Visit 2 (Baseline, Day 1) they will be randomised to receive double-masked treatment for 6 weeks, with study visits completed at Week 2 (Day 14) and Week 6 (Day 42), and a post-treatment visit completed 2 weeks (± 3 days) after last study drug administration. Approximately 234 adult subjects with blepharoptosis who meet all the eligibility criteria will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to receive:

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.
Presence of all the following at Screening:
Exclusion Criteria:
Presence of either of the following:
Any intravitreal injections (e.g., antiVEGFs, steroids) within 8 days prior to screening (Visit
1) and during the study.
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.
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.
Periods have stopped for good: usually no period for 12 months in a row without another medical reason, sometimes confirmed by a blood test (FSH).
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.
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.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
