A Phase 2b Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of AR-15512 Ophthalmic Solution for the Treatment of Dry Eye Disease

This is a Phase 2b, multicenter, vehicle-controlled, double-masked, randomized study. All subjects enrolled will have dry eye disease. The study consists of Screening and Baseline visits to determine eligibility, followed by efficacy assessments at Day 14 (Visit 3), 28 (Visit 4) and 84 (Visit 5/Study Exit). Safety will be assessed at all study visits.

About this study

At the end of the Screening Visit, all qualified subjects will be assigned to administer AR-15512 vehicle twice a day to both eyes for 14 days (vehicle run-in period). After the vehicle run-in period, subjects will be re-evaluated for signs and symptoms of Dry Eye Disease (DED). Subjects who requalify based on inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive AR-15512 0.0014% (lower dose), AR-15512 0.003% (higher dose) or AR-15512 vehicle administered as 1 drop in each eye twice daily for 84 days.

This study will utilize a Controlled Adverse Environment (CAE) chamber, which serves to (1) minimize the factors that could impact the evaluation (temperature, humidity, and airflow) and (2) stress the ocular surface in a safe, standardized, controlled, and reproducible manner. Subjects will be exposed to the CAE for approximately 90 minutes during each CAE visit. Subjects will be exposed to the CAE at the Screening and Baseline visits as well as on Day 28 (Visit 4) and Day 84 (Visit 5). Efficacy endpoints will be evaluated pre- and post- exposure to the CAE.

Primary outcomes

  1. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Pre-CAE (Controlled Adverse Environment) Ocular Discomfort Score (ODS) on a Visual Analogue Scale at Day 28

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) (pre-treatment), Day 28

    Ocular discomfort was assessed using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) that ranged from 0 millimeters (mm) (no ocular discomfort) to 100 mm (maximum ocular discomfort). Ocular discomfort was assessed at Baseline prior to CAE exposure and at Day 28 prior to CAE exposure. The Day 28 value was subtracted from the Baseline value. A more negative change value indicates a better outcome. This was a subject based assessment, and subject assigned a single score for both eyes. This is a co-primary endpoint.

  2. Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Pre-CAE Anesthetized Schirmer Test Score at Day 28

    Time frame: Baseline (Day 1) (pre-treatment), Day 28

    The Schirmer test measures tear production. Following instillation of topical anesthetic drops, Schirmer strips were placed on the lower eye lids, eyes were closed, and strips remained in place for 5 minutes or until both strips reached a maximum score. The strips were removed, and the amount of wetting was recorded on a scale from 0 mm (no tear production) to 35 mm (maximum tear production). The test was performed at Baseline prior to CAE exposure and at Day 28 prior to CAE exposure. The Day 28 value was subtracted from the Baseline value. A more positive change value indicates a better outcome. One eye (study eye) contributed data to the analysis. This is a co-primary endpoint.
