France118 participantsStarted 2006-05
Plain-language summary
The primary objective of this study is:
* To assess the efficacy of Nova22007, a cyclosporine A (CsA), 0.05% and 0.1% versus vehicle in patients with vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) after a 4-week treatment period.
The secondary objectives of this study are:
* To compare the safety and ocular tolerance of Nova22007 0.05% and 0.1%;
* To assess the long term safety and ocular tolerance of Nova22007 0.05% and 0.1%; and
* To assess the decrease in frequency of concomitant artificial tears use.
