Clinical Study Evaluating Safety and Efficacy of a Nepafenac Punctal Plug Delivery System (N-PPDS) Compared With Placebo Punctal Plug Delivery System (p-PPDS) in Controlling Post-Operative Ocular Pain and Inflammation After Routine Unilateral Cataract Surgery
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Nepafenac PPDS and Placebo PPDS for Pain and Inflammation. Completed, enrolled 56 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
This is a Phase 2, multi-center, randomized, parallel-arm, double-masked, placebo-controlled study. One (1) to 2 days prior to their scheduled cataract surgery, each study subject will be randomized (2:1) in to one of two treatment groups: N-PPDS or p-PPDS, which are inserted in the lower punctum of the subject's scheduled surgical eye. All plugs will remain in the study subject's lower punctum for a period of 2 weeks following cataract surgery.

Timeline
Interventions
A punctal plug delivery system (PPDS) is being developed as a device that can deliver a sustained release of a drug to a specific eye. The PPDS is made up of a medical grade silicone punctal plug which holds an insert (core) that contains nepafenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
