Brief Summary:
This study aims at demonstrating the non-inferiority of Idroflog compared to sodium hyaluronate 0.18% for the disease improvement of people with documented history of dry eyes and use of tear substitutes for at least 3 months.
Detailed Description:
This is a randomized, controlled, multicenter, assessor-blinded, non-inferiority trial comparing Idroflog® (sodium hyaluronate and hydrocortisone) with sodium hyaluronate in participants with dry eye disease (DED).
DED is a common, multifactorial ocular condition, which affects between 5% and 35% of adults worldwide and significantly affects their quality of life. DED treatment is based on the management of contributing factors (local environment, elimination of harmful systemic and topical drugs), eyelid hygiene and the use of artificial tears. The gold standard of the latter is sodium hyaluronate solutions, which, however, lack any anit-inflammatory activity necessary for DED's management. In comparison to these, Idroflog containing both sodium hyaluronate and hydrocortisone in addition to the usual activities of sodium hyaluronate artificial tears (diluent, diffusive, protective, nutrient, lubricant) also provides steroidal anti-inflammatory activity. Therefore, this study aims at showing that Idroflog® performs as well as current standard of care (sodium hyaluronate artificial tears) in the treatment of moderate DED, while providing a potential benefit on the control of the sub-clinical inflammatory component of DED and maintaining the excellent safety profile of sodium hyaluronate artificial tears treatment.
