Overview
Brief Summary
Study of safety and efficacy of UNR844 in subjects with presbyopia.
Detailed Description
This was a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-masked,multi-arm, parallel-group, multi-center 13-month study which consisted of: * A 1 week run-in period * A 3-month treatment course with UNR844 and/or Placebo * A 9-month treatment holiday period Participants were randomized equally to one of five treatment arms: UNR844 5 mg/mL,UNR844 13.3 mg/mL, UNR844 23 mg/mL, UNR844 30 mg/mL, or Placebo eye drops twice-a-day for three months. Participants underwent a 1 week run-in period where they were assessed for entry criteria during the Screening visit. During the run-in period, participants self-administered 1 drop of artificial tears twice-a-day (1 drop in the morning and 1 drop in the evening) in each eye at home. This run-in period was designed to help minimize any potential variability in distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA) caused due to initial ocular surface issues and help to establish an accurate baseline prior to randomization. The run-in period was to help exclude participants with a change in DCNVA of 0.10 logMAR difference between Screening and Baseline. This study was conducted to determine the optimum dose of UNR844 treatment and the duration of effect of UNR844 treatment for further development.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Characterize Dose-response of UNR844 for Change From Baseline in Binocular Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) at Month 3
Time Frame: Baseline, Month 3
Characterize dose response of UNR844 as measured by change from baseline at Month 3 in binocular DCNVA (without near correction) in Logarithm of Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR), at 40cm. A low logMAR score represents good vision while a high logMAR score represents bad vision.
Secondary Outcomes
- Percentage of Participants Gaining at Least 0.30 logMAR in Monocular (Worse-seeing Eye) Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) (Without Near Correction) From Baseline at Month 3(Baseline, Month 3)
- Percentage of Participants Gaining at Least 0.30 logMAR in Monocular (Better-seeing Eye) Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) (Without Near Correction) From Baseline at Month 3(Baseline, Month 3)
- Characterize Dose Response of UNR844 as Measured by Change From Baseline in Monocular (Better-seeing Eye) Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) at Month 3(Baseline, Month 3)
- Percentage of Participants Gaining at Least 0.30 logMAR in Binocular Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) (Without Near Correction) From Baseline at Month 3(Baseline, Month 3)
- Characterize Dose Response of UNR844 as Measured by Change From Baseline in Monocular (Worse-seeing Eye) Distance-corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) at Month 3(Baseline, Month 3)
