About this study

The purpose of this clinical Study is Tisporin Eye Drops 0.05%(Cyclosporine ophthalmic solution) group and Restasis Eye Drops 0.05%(Cyclosporine ophthalmic suspension) group 12 weeks after treatment, each treatment group comparisons for evaluation of efficacy and safety in Moderate to Severe Dry Eye Disease.

  • Corneal staining test, Ocular surface disease index (OSDI), Tear break up time (TBUT), Non-anesthetic Schirmer test

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • [Patients with moderate-to-severe ocular dry eye]
  • The sum of corneal fluorescein staining score of 5 or higher (NEI Scale)
  • Non-anesthetic Schirmer test value ≤ 5mm/5min patients at least one eye score (Non-anesthetic Schirmer test value = 0/5min, nasal stimulation in the same eye, Schirmer test value ≥ 3mm/5min)
  • Screening both eyes, the corrected visual acuity is 0.2 or more
  • Despite conventional treatment, the symptoms of dry eye signs (Artificial tear eye drops, sympathetic nervous system stimulant agent, parasympathetic nerve stimulant, etc.)
  • Negative urine pregnancy test at the screening when women of childbearing age
  • Medically reliable method of contraception in the case of all women of childbearing age or menopause (1 year after the last menstrual period women) Sterilization (eg, bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy) women of childbearing age have not been effective contraception only if you participate in a clinical trial may have been determined to be pregnant by examining whether the voice, maintained during the entire clinical trial period shall that.
  • Written consent voluntarily to participate in this clinical trial

Exclusion criteria

  • The patients with systemic or ocular disorders affected the test results (ocular surgery, trauma, or disease)
  • Abnormal eyelid function : Disoders of the eyelids or eyelashes
  • Ocular allergies or currently under the treatment of allergic diseases of the eye (topical ocular mast cell stabilizer, antihistamine use, etc.)

Treatment and study plan

Cyclosporine ophthalmic solution

Drug

1 drop twice/day for 12 weeks to both eyes

Other names: Restasis Eye Drops, Tisporin Eye Drops

Primary outcomes

  1. Corneal staining test

    Time frame: Administered 12 weeks after

    The degree of staining of the cornea after blue fluorescein staining under the slit lamp illumination of a cobalt blue light source using a yellow filter was evaluated on a 6 point scale according to the oxford grading system

Secondary outcomes

  1. Tear break up time (TBUT)

    Time frame: Administered 4, 8, 12 weeks after

    After blinking blue fluorescein staining of the cobalt blue light source using a yellow filter, it was observed from the blinking point that there was a black spot, a streak pattern or a fluorine defect in the fluorescein-tear layer Was measured in seconds. The measurement results were repeated three times and average values were used.

  2. Corneal staining test

    Time frame: Administered 4, 8 weeks after

    Corneal staining was performed at each visit. The degree of staining of the cornea after blue fluorescein staining under the slit lamp illumination of a cobalt blue light source using a yellow filter was evaluated on a 6 point scale according to the oxford grading system

  3. Ocular surface disease index (OSDI)

    Time frame: Administered 4, 8, 12 weeks after

    The ocular surface disease index was assessed for ocular surface disease, including visual function (five items), eye symptoms (four items), and environmental factors (three items) , 0 point for no symptoms, 1 point for occasional symptoms, 2 points for symptoms of half a day, 3 points for most symptoms, and 4 points for symptoms during the whole day.

  4. Non-anesthetic Schirmer test

    Time frame: Administered 4, 8, 12 weeks after

    After the eyes were examined, the eyes were wiped and the Schirmer test paper was inserted into the right eye at 1/3 of the lower eyelid without eye anesthesia and inserted into the left eye. After 5 minutes with the eyes closed, the Schirmer test paper was removed from the right side in the order of insertion and the left side removed. The wet length was measured in millimeters and the length of the midpoint was measured when the wet border was oblique.

  5. Conjunctival staining

    Time frame: Administered 4, 8, 12 weeks after

    After lysamine green staining under slit lamps, the conjunctiva was divided into the nasal side and the lateral side, and the degree of nasal conjunctiva and bilateral conjunctival staining was evaluated on a 6-point scale according to the oxford grading system
