Bromfenac is a well-known topical ophthalmic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commercialized in the USA and other regions of the world. A new formulation, 0.075% bromfenac in DuraSite®, was developed to treat postoperative inflammation and reduce pain in patients who have undergone cataract surgery. We hypothesized that efficacy and safety would be enhanced with twice-daily (BID) dosing compared to once-daily (QD) dosing.
This was a multicenter, double-masked, comparative study in which 40 and 45 subjects were randomized to groups receiving BID dosing and QD dosing, respectively. Subjects self-instilled the study drug for 14 days postoperative and were followed for an additional 2-week evaluation phase. The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of subjects with an anterior chamber cell (ACC) grade of 0 at day 15.
A total of 45 subjects had cleared ACC (grade "0") at day 15, of whom 21 were in the BID group (52.5%) and 24 were in the QD group (53.5%). A secondary analysis found 7/40 (17.5%) subjects in the BID group and 10/45 (22.2%) subjects in the QD group achieved an ACC grade of 0 at day 8. There were more adverse events in the QD group (n = 16) than in the BID group (n = 12).
Similar outcomes were observed for subjects using Bromfenac 0.075% in DuraSite® in the BID and QD dosing regimens for the treatment of post-cataract surgery inflammation.

溴芬酸是一种知名的局部用眼科非甾体抗炎药(NSAID),已在美国和世界其他地区上市。一种新的制剂,即含0.075%溴芬酸的DuraSite®,被开发用于治疗白内障手术后患者的炎症并减轻疼痛。我们假设,与每日一次(QD)给药相比,每日两次(BID)给药可提高疗效和安全性。
这是一项多中心、双盲、对照研究,分别将40名和45名受试者随机分为接受BID给药和QD给药的组。受试者在术后14天自行滴入研究药物,并在另外2周的评估期内进行随访。主要疗效终点是第15天时前房细胞(ACC)分级为0的受试者比例。
共有45名受试者在第15天时ACC清除(分级为“0”),其中21名在BID组(52.5%),24名在QD组(53.5%)。一项次要分析发现,BID组7/40(17.5%)的受试者和QD组10/45(22.2%)的受试者在第8天时ACC分级为0。QD组的不良事件(n = 16)比BID组(n = 12)更多。
在治疗白内障手术后炎症方面,使用含0.075%溴芬酸的DuraSite®的受试者,BID和QD给药方案的观察结果相似。
