简要总结

The objective of the DREAM study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids in relieving the symptoms of moderate to severe dry eye disease.

详细描述

The study is designed to:

  • Test the hypothesis that omega-3 supplementation is an effective treatment for Dry Eye Disease (DED) in Primary Clinical Trial.
  • Better understand DED by describing and evaluating a comprehensive set of features of DED and treatment over 12 months of observation in a well-characterized group of patients.
  • Determine the effects of extended use and discontinuation of omega-3 through the Extension trial.

结局指标

主要结局

Mean of Change From Baseline in Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) Score at 6 and 12 Months

时间窗: 12 months

Average of Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) scores from 6 and 12 months minus average of values from screening and eligibility confirmation visits. OSDI scores range from 0 to 100, with a score of 0 indicating no ocular discomfort and higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. The minimal clinically meaningful change in score is 10 points.

次要结局

  • Greater Than or Equal to 10 Point Decrease in Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) (at Least 10 Point Improvement in Symptoms)(12 months)
  • Change in Brief Ocular Discomfort Index (BODI) Pain Interference Subscale(12 months)
  • Change From Baseline in SF-36 Physical Health Subscale(12 months)
  • Change From Baseline in SF-36 Mental Health Subscale(12 months)
  • Compliance With the Study Treatment Protocol as Measured by Change in Blood Levels of EPA(12 months)
  • Compliance With the Study Treatment Protocol as Measured by Change in Blood Levels of DHA(12 months)
  • Change in Tear Film Break up Time, in Seconds(12 months)
  • Compliance With the Study Treatment Protocol as Measured by Change in Blood Levels of Oleic Acid(12 months)
  • Change in Conjunctival Staining Score(12 months)
  • Change in Schirmer's Test mm(12 months)
  • Change in Corneal Fluorescein Staining Score(12 months)
  • Change in Visual Acuity(12 months)
  • Change in Use of Artificial Tears and Other Treatments for Dry Eye Disease(12 months)
