BACKGROUND: Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent condition affecting over 16 million patients in the USA. DED and the symptoms of ocular discomfort are debilitating and a significant burden on patients. If left untreated, DED can progress to cause severe pathology. Treatment is often initiated by patients without consulting a healthcare professional. This study investigated the safety and efficacy of a novel lipid-containing eye drop (BTC), which might better mimic the components of natural tears.
METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, double-masked, active control, two arm, parallel group study of eye drops in adult subjects with self-reported DED. Subjects were randomly assigned to BTC or control (commercially available non-lipid eye drops; NLED) arm and were followed for 30 days. Assessments using visual analog scale and patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaires, non-invasive tear break up time, slit-lamp examination, and subject-reported ocular symptoms were conducted at baseline and at days 7 and 30. The primary endpoint was change in overall ocular comfort score from baseline to day 30.
RESULTS: 158 subjects were randomized, of whom 130 completed the study per protocol (PP). Mean (SD) age was 47.8 (14.14) years. The mean (95% CI) change in overall comfort scores at the 30-day follow-up in the PP population was 21.4 (15.1, 27.7) for the test drop and 10.0 (3.9, 16.1) for the comparator. The mean (95% CI) treatment difference was 11.3 (2.6, 20.1); this met the pre-defined requirements for non-inferiority. There was no significant difference in the proportion of eyes with reported ocular symptoms between the groups. At day 7, the OR (95% CI) was 0.967 (0.528, 1.770) and at day 30 was 1.160 (0.610, 2.203). There were no Grade 3 or higher corneal edema, corneal neovascularization, corneal staining, conjunctival injection, tarsal abnormalities or any other biomicroscopy findings, and no corneal infiltrates observed during the study.
CONCLUSIONS: The investigational lipid eye drop BTC was noninferior to the commercially available non-lipid comparator in all parameters measured and has the potential to provide an effective therapy for subjects with symptoms of dry eye who would benefit from a lipid-based artificial tear.
