Run by Peking University Third Hospital · NCT05605314 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study looks at people with primary Sjögren's syndrome who have severe dry eye symptoms to see how their condition affects their eyes and what can be learned from their tear and blood samples.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are individuals diagnosed with primary Sjögren's syndrome who experience dry eye symptoms.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with other rheumatic or systemic diseases affecting tear function, or those with a history of ocular trauma or surgery, may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This study focuses on patients with primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) who experience severe dry eye symptoms. It aims to establish a clinical cohort to explore the relationship between the primary organs affected by pSS and various biomarkers in tear fluid and blood. By analyzing these associations, the study seeks to enhance understanding of the pathogenesis, diagnosis, classification, and treatment of dry eye disease related to pSS. The research will also investigate the severity of ocular involvement and symptom progression in these patients.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved diagnosis and treatment strategies for patients suffering from dry eye related to primary Sjögren's syndrome.
How similar studies have gone: While there is limited research specifically on dry eye in pSS, similar studies on autoimmune conditions have shown promise in understanding disease mechanisms and improving patient outcomes.
