Detailed Description
Inhibitors for tumor necrosis factor (TNF) have been widely used in clinical practice. Such class of medications have been approved for rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis, and uveitis. HBM9036 (HL036) is a molecularly engineered TNFR1 fragment, and molecule fragmentation and engineering techniques are applied for enhanced tissue distribution, increased stability and potency. In multiple early stage studies including preclinical studies, HBM9036 (HL036) has demonstrated the safety and efficacy in the therapy for moderate and severe dry eye. As a phase 3 confirmational study, this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 0.25% HBM9036 (HL036) ophthalmic solution compared to placebo in Chinese subjects with moderate and severe dry eye.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change from baseline in total corneal staining scores (upper, central and lower cornea) of the study eye [8 weeks]
Total corneal staining score (TCSS; superior, central, and inferior regions) of study eye evaluated by Ora Calibra® Corneal and Conjunctival Staining Scale for Grading of Fluorescein Staining at Visit 5/Day 57, change from baseline Score: From 0-12, a higher score means a worse outcome.
