Condition(s) targeted: Allergic Conjunctivitis
Intervention: Vehicle (Drug); Brimonidine Tartrate 0.01% (Drug); Brimonidine Tartrate 0.025% (Drug); Oxymetazoline HCl 0.025% (Drug)
Phase: Phase 2
Status: Completed

Summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and dose response of
brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution as compared to placebo in the prevention of
allergen-induced conjunctival redness using a conjunctival allergen challenge (CAC) model.
It is hypothesized that low-dose brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution will be more
effective than vehicle in the prevention of conjunctival redness induced by conjunctival
allergen challenge when instilled prior to the allergen challenge.
