Group Intervention Description Placebo placebo 0% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension received one drop to both eyes four times a day for 4 weeks. 1% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension 1% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension 1% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension received one drop to both eyes four times a day for 4 weeks. 2% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension 2% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension 2% OPC-12759 ophthalmic suspension received one drop to both eyes four times a day for 4 weeks.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Fluorescein Corneal Staining (FCS) Score From Baseline to Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Baseline, 4weeks FCS indicates the damage to the corneal epithelium. Per the National Eye Institute/Industry Workshop report, the cornea was divided into 5 fractions, each of which was given a staining score from 0 to 3, and the total score was calculated(0-15). 0 is better.The change from baseline (CFB) to LOCF at the end of instillation (LOCF endpoint) was used to analyze dose-response. A general linear model was used to examine if slope parameters were not equal to zero.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change in Lissamine Green Conjunctival Staining (LGCS) Score From Baseline to Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) Baseline, 4weeks LGCS indicates the damage to the conjunctival epithelium. Per the National Eye Institute/Industry Workshop report, the conjunctival sac and the conjunctina was divided into 6 ractions, each of which was given a staining score from 0 to 3, and the total score was calculated(0-18). 0 is better. The CFB to each study time point was compared between the active-drug groups and the placebo group, and LOCF endpoint scores were used to compare the active-drug groups and the placebo group. In each treatment group, baseline scores and those obtained at each study time point were compared.
