Brief Summary:
The primary objective of the study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of KPI-121 1.0% ophthalmic suspension compared to placebo in subjects who have undergone cataract surgery.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Post Surgical Ocular Inflammation and Pain Drug: KPI-121 1% Ophthalmic Suspension dosed BID Drug: Vehicle of KPI-121 Ophthalmic Suspension dosed BID Phase 3

Detailed Description:
This is a Phase III, multicenter, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KPI-121 1.0% ophthalmic suspension versus placebo in subjects who require treatment of postoperative anterior ocular inflammation.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells at Day 8 [ Time Frame: Visit 5 (Day 8) maintained through Visit 6 (Day 15) ]

    Number and percentage of subjects with complete resolution of AC cells in the surgical eye (study eye) at Day 8 maintained through Day 15, without receiving rescue medication prior to Day 15, for KPI-121 1% dosed twice daily (BID) compared with vehicle dosed BID.

    Investigators were asked to grade AC cell based on the following scale wherein higher scores indicate a higher degree of cells present and a decrease across time indicates the condition is getting better.

    Anterior Chamber Cells 0 = No cells seen

    1. = 1 - 5 cells
    2. = 6 - 15 cells
    3. = 16 - 30 cells
    4. = greater than 30 cells

  2. Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain at Day 8 [ Time Frame: Visit 5 (Day 8) maintained through Visit 6 (Day 15) ]

    Number and percentage of subjects with complete resolution of ocular pain in the surgical eye (study eye) at Day 8 maintained through Day 15, without receiving rescue medication prior to Day 15, for KPI-121 1% dosed twice daily (BID) compared with vehicle dosed BID.

    Subjects were given the Subject-Rated Ocular Pain Assessment to subjectively rate their pain at Days 1, 4, 8, 15, and the follow-up visit between Days 17 and 19. Higher scores were worse outcomes.

    The following scoring scale was used for ocular pain:

    0 = None

    1. = Minimal
    2. = Mild
    3. = Moderate
    4. = Moderately Severe
    5. = Severe


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Complete Resolution of Ocular Pain at Day 4 [ Time Frame: Visit 4 (Day 4) maintained through Visit 6 (Day 15) ]

    Number and percentage of subjects with complete resolution of ocular pain in the surgical eye (study eye) at Day 4 maintained through Day 15, without receiving rescue medication prior to Day 15, for KPI-121 1% dosed twice daily (BID) compared with vehicle dosed BID.

    Subjects were given the Subject-Rated Ocular Pain Assessment to subjectively rate their pain at Days 1, 4, 8, 15, and the follow-up visit between Days 17 and 19. Higher scores were worse outcomes.

    The following scoring scale was used for ocular pain:

    0 = None

    1. = Minimal
    2. = Mild
    3. = Moderate
    4. = Moderately Severe
    5. = Severe

  2. Complete Resolution of Anterior Chamber (AC) Flare at Day 4 [ Time Frame: Visit 4 (Day 4) maintained through Visit 6 (Day 15) ]

    Number and percentage of subjects with complete resolution of AC flare in the surgical eye (study eye) at Day 4 maintained through Day 15, without receiving rescue medication prior to Day 15, for KPI-121 1% dosed twice daily (BID) compared with vehicle dosed BID.

    Investigators were asked to grade AC flare based on the following scale wherein higher scores indicate a higher degree of flare present and a decrease across time indicates the condition is getting better.

    Anterior Chamber Flare 0 = None

    1. = Mild (trace to clearly noticeable, visible)
    2. = Moderate (without plastic aqueous humor)
    3. = Marked (with plastic aqueous humor)
    4. = Severe (with fibrin deposits and/or clots)

  3. Change From Baseline (BL) Anterior Chamber (AC) Cells at Day 4 [ Time Frame: Visit 1 (Baseline) and Visit 4 (Day 4) ]

    The difference in mean changes from BL in AC cell count grade at Day 4 for KPI-121 1% dosed twice daily (BID) compared with vehicle dosed BID.

    Investigators were asked to grade AC cell based on the following scale wherein higher scores indicate a higher degree of cells present and a decrease across time indicates the condition is getting better.

    Anterior Chamber Cells 0 = No cells seen

    1. = 1 - 5 cells
    2. = 6 - 15 cells
    3. = 16 - 30 cells
    4. = greater than 30 cells
