United States Regulatory Approval of Topical Treatments for Dry Eye

PURPOSE: To report the heterogeneity in methodology of clinical trials submitted to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for approval of topical dry eye treatments.
DESIGN: Comparative analysis of clinical trials' methods.
METHODS: We reviewed the online, publicly available FDA database, application review files, ClinicalTrials.gov registry records, and journal articles for each FDA-approved topical dry eye treatment. For each trial, we extracted information about the study, patient demographics, treatment names and doses, sample size in each arm, and the measurement instrument in a systematic fashion.
RESULTS: Fourteen trials were included that assessed 5 topical treatments for dry eye (cyclosporine 0.05%, cyclosporine 0.09%, lifitegrast 5%, and loteprednol 0.25% eye drops and varenicline 0.03-mg nasal spray). Median treatment duration was 12 weeks (range, 2-24 weeks). In all trials, treatments, including varying concentrations of the same treatment, were compared with vehicle. Twelve trials (85.7%) evaluated a primary clinician-measured clinical sign, and 10 trials (71.4%) evaluated a primary patient-reported symptom. Corneal staining was the most frequently evaluated clinical sign primary outcome, reported in half (6 of 12) of the trials, and was graded using 4 different scoring systems. Conjunctival staining, conjunctival hyperemia, and tear production were each measured using 2 different scoring systems. Ocular discomfort, the only patient-reported symptom primary outcome, was measured using 5 different instruments.
CONCLUSION: A variety of outcome measures were used in these clinical trials. Clinically meaningful dry eye outcome measures and standardized measurements can optimize the assessment of and comparison of therapeutic benefits.
