Run by Bausch & Lomb Incorporated · NCT07778888 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This trial tests whether different doses of BL1107 can fully reduce conjunctival redness in people with dry eye disease, while keeping participants unaware of the dose they receive.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with diagnosed dry eye disease and bilateral conjunctival hyperemia without infection or allergic conjunctivitis.
✕Probably not a fit
Individuals with active ocular disease, those likely to wear contact lenses during the study, or cases where BL1107 shows no dose-related benefit may not experience improvement.

What this trial studies
This Phase 2 interventional study aims to identify the lowest effective concentration of BL1107 that achieves complete resolution of conjunctival hyperemia in adults with dry eye disease. Participants will be randomized to receive varying concentrations of BL1107 and will be masked to the specific concentration administered. The study focuses on those with bilateral conjunctival redness and excludes individuals with active ocular disease or those likely to wear contact lenses during participation. Lead sponsorship is by Bausch & Lomb Incorporated, with the single site located in Newport Beach, California. Outcomes will inform dosing strategies to optimize efficacy while minimizing exposure.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants could experience improved redness control with the most appropriate BL1107 dose, potentially reducing symptoms and improving comfort.
How similar studies have gone: Previous research in similar anti-hyperemia approaches has demonstrated dose-responsive effects, but this exact BL1107 dosing strategy is novel for targeted hyperemia resolution.
