A Randomized, Double-masked, Parallel Group Study of DE-108 Ophthalmic Solution in Patients Who Are Scheduled for Cataract Surgery (Levofloxacin 0.5% Ophthalmic Solution as a Comparator) - Phase III, Confirmatory Study of Perioperative Bacteria Eradication -
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate superior efficacy of DE-108 ophthalmic solution to that of Levofloxacin 0.5% ophthalmic solution as well as safety of the former used for perioperative bacteria eradication in patients who are scheduled for cataract surgery.
Conditions: Cataract Surgery.
Primary outcome: Change in the percentage of positive bacteriological test results (from Day -3 to Day 0).
Enrollment: 576 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 576 participants or records.
