Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events by Severity in Each Cohort

    Time frame: Day 2 for cohort 1-4, Day 29 for cohort 5-6

    Number of participants with adverse events by severity are summarize in each cohort. Adverse events are reported as Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), which are defined as any event not present before exposure to the study drug or any event already presented that worsened in either intensity or frequency after exposure to the study drug.

  2. Number of Subjects With Abnormal Changes in Laboratory Parameters, Vital Signs, and/or Physical and Ophthalmologic Observations in Each Cohort

    Time frame: Day 2 for cohort 1-4, Day 29 for cohort 5-6

    Clinical laboratory parameters include hematology, clinical chemistry, urinalysis, and serology. Vital signs include diastolic blood pressure, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and body temperature. Ophthalmologic observations include examination of visual acuity, slit lamp biomicroscopy, Schirmer I, intraocular pressure, and ophthalmoscopy.

  3. Maximum Plasma Concentration (Cmax)

    Time frame: Day 1

    The results are from the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) on Day 1. The blood for pharmacokinetics assessment was collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours after dosing on Day 1 for Cohorts 1 to 4. The blood for pharmacokinetics assessment was collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing on Day 1 for Cohorts 5 and 6.

  4. Area Under the Plasma Concentration-time Curve From Time 0 to Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUC0-last)

    Time frame: Day 1

    Area under the plasma concentration-time curves (AUCs) for Cohorts 1 to 4 were calculated using the plasma collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 12 hours after dosing on Day 1, and those for Cohorts 5 and 6 were calculated using the plasma collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing on Day 1.

  5. Accumulation Ratio (Rac) After Multiple Dosing

    Time frame: Day 2, 4, 8

    Plasma were collected at 0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing on Day 1, pre-dose on Day 2, Day 4 and Day 8. Accumulation ratios calculated as (predose plasma concentration [Ctrough] on Day 4) / (Ctrough on Day 2) and (Ctrough on Day 8) / (Ctrough on Day 2)

  6. Change From Baseline in Eye Dryness Symptom (VAS) at 4hour on Day 29

    Time frame: Day 29

    Visual analog scale (VAS): "0" mean none, and "100" mean the worst imaginable for the symptom question.

  7. Change From Baseline in Corneal Fluorescein Staining (CFS) Score at the Central Zone on Day 29

    Time frame: Day 29

    Change from baseline of central zone CFS score at the central zone on Day 29. CFS score at the central zone ranged from 0 to 5, where '0' represents no fluorescein staining, and '5' represents severe staining on the cornea. The higher scores mean worse outcomes. Results from the study eye are reported.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Eye Dryness Symptom by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) in Each Timepoints

    Time frame: Day 29

    Visual analog scale (VAS): "0" mean none, and "100" mean the worst imaginable for the symptom question. Results from pre-dose are reported.

  2. Change From Baseline in Corneal Fluorescein Staining (CFS) Score at Total Zone in Each Timepoints

    Time frame: Day 8, 15, 22, 29

    Change from baseline of CFS score at the total zone of pre-dose in each time point.

    Total zone means a summary of central, superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal zones.

    The range of the score in each zone is 0 to 5 points, and the total score is 25 points. The higher scores mean worse outcomes.

  3. Change From Baseline in Conjunctival Lissamine Green Staining (CLGS) Score at Total Zone in Each Timepoints

    Time frame: Day 8, 15, 22, 29

    The score in each zone is 0 to 5 points, and the maximum total score is 30 points. The higher scores mean worse outcomes. Results from the study eye are reported.

  4. Change From Baseline in Lid Wiper Epitheliopathy Score in Each Timepoints

    Time frame: Day 8, 15, 22, 29

    Lissamine green staining of the lid wiper was graded from 0 to 3. The higher scores mean worse outcomes. Results from the study eye are reported.

  5. Change From Baseline in Tear Film Break-up Time (TFBUT) in Each Timepoints

    Time frame: Day 8, 15, 22, 29

    Tear film break-up time is the time taken for the first dry spot to appear on the cornea after a complete blink.

  6. Change From Baseline in Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI)

    Time frame: Day 8, 15, 22, 29

    The OSDI questionnaire consists of 12 questions regarding ocular symptoms, environmental triggers, and vision-related functioning. The participant was asked to rate each question using a 5-point scale (0 to 4), where 0 = none of the time; 1 = some of the time; 2 = half of the time; 3 = most of the time; and 4 = all of the time. The total OSDI was calculated from the raw scores of each of the 12 questions based on the formula: ([sum of scores for all questions answered] X 25)/([total number of questions answered]).

    The OSDI can range from 0 (normal) to 100 (abnormal).

  7. Change From Baseline in Dry Eye Questionnaire 5 (DEQ-5) Scores

    Time frame: Day 29

    The participants rated the frequency on a scale of 0 (never) to 4 (constant) with which they have experienced 3 symptoms (watery eyes, discomfort and dryness). The participant was also asked to rate the intensity of discomfort and dryness on a scale of 0 (never have it) to 5 (very intense). Total DEQ-5 score was the sum of scores for frequency and intensity of dryness and discomfort plus frequency of watery eyes. Maximum score is 22.

    Higher scores mean a worse outcome.

  8. Change in Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9)

    Time frame: Day 29

    Levels of the inflammatory marker Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) were measured in each eye using InflammaDry. The test was recorded as either positive or negative. Results from the study eye are reported.
