What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    TEAE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence or undesirable event(s) that begins or worsens following administration of the study drug, whether or not considered related to the treatment by the Investigator. A TEAE is considered serious if, in the view of the Investigator or Sponsor, it results in any of the following outcomes: death, a life-threatening TEAE, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability or incapacity, a congenital anomaly or birth defect, an important medical event that jeopardized the participant and required medical intervention, or sight-threatening (possibly resulting in persistent or significant loss of vision). A summary of other non-serious adverse events (AEs) and all serious AEs, regardless of causality is located in Reported AE section.

    Measured: Baseline up to Day 29

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Drop Comfort Assessment as Assessed by the Participant

    Drop comfort assessment (0-10 unit scale in which a score of 0 denotes "very comfortable" and 10 is "very uncomfortable") was performed by the participant. Participant's average score across eyes at each time point were used for analysis.

    Measured: At dose installation, 30 seconds postdose installation, and 1 minute postdose installation on Day 1

  2. Number of Participants Who Were Fully Alert as Assessed by the Investigator on Days 1, 8, 15, and 29

    An alertness evaluation was performed by the Investigator asking the participant and/or participant's parent/legal guardian (pediatric participants only) a few questions based on the previous week. Using those answers, along with his/her clinical opinion, the Investigator made an assessment of the participant's level of alertness using the following 6-point scale: fully alert, alert, lethargy, obtunded, stupor, or coma.

    Measured: Predose installation on Day 1 and 90-180 minutes postdose installation on Days 1, 8, 15, and 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Brimonidine Tartrate, Sodium Fluorescein and Fluorescein Sodium and Benoximate Hydrocholoride Ophthalmic Solution USP in people with Hyperemia, run by Bausch & Lomb Incorporated at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Oct 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 23 Oct 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: Baseline up to Day 29). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Oct 2019.
