Group Intervention Description Vehicle Moxifloxacin AF Vehicle Moxifloxacin AF vehicle, 1 drop in each eye twice daily for 3 days Moxifloxacin AF Moxifloxacin Alternative Formulation (AF) Ophthalmic Solution 0.5% Moxifloxacin Alternative Formulation (AF) Ophthalmic Solution 0.5%, 1 drop in each eye twice daily for 3 days
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Clinical Cure at the Day 4 (EOT)/Exit Visit Day 4 Clinical cure was attained if the sum of the 2 cardinal ocular signs of bacterial conjunctivitis (bulbar conjunctival injection and conjunctival discharge/exudate) was zero (ie, normal or absent) 12-48 hours after the last dose. Clinical cure was reported as a percentage. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Microbiological Success at the Day 4 (EOT)/Exit Visit Day 4 Microbiological success was attained if the pre-therapy bacterial pathogens were eradicated 12-48 hours after the last dose. Microbiological success is reported as a percentage. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.
