SYNOPSIS  
Protocol Number:  VVN001-
CS-201 
Investigational Product:  VVN001 Ophthalmic Solution 
Protocol Title:  A Phase 2a, Double-Masked, Randomized, Vehicle-controlled Trial 
Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy Activity of 1% and 5% VVN001 compared to Vehicle in 
Subjects with Dry Eye Disease 
The objectives of the study are: 
• Evaluate the safety and tolerability of VVN001, 1% ophthalmic solution and VVN001, 
5% ophthalmic solution when administered BID compared to vehicle administered 
BID. 
• Evaluate the efficacy activity of VVN001, 1% ophthalmic solution and VVN001, 5% 
ophthalmic solution administered BID compared to vehicle administered BID in the 
treatment of signs and symptoms of Dry Eye Disease (DED). 
Study Population:   
The study population will consist of subjects with documented diagnosis of Dry Eye Disease. 
Number of Subjects/Study Sites:   
Approximately 165 subjects will be randomized to VVN001 or vehicle at approximately 10 
centers in the United States (U.S.). 
Study Products: 
VVN001 ophthalmic solution or vehicle ophthalmic solution will be supplied as Investigational 
Product (IP). 
Route and Duration of Administration:   
IP will be instilled bilaterally in each eye BID (morning/evening) for up to 84 days.  
Study Design:   
This is a Phase 2a, multi-center, double-masked, randomized, vehicle-controlled, parallel-
group study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to explore the efficacy activity 
of VVN001 ophthalmic solution versus vehicle in subjects with dry eye disease. The study will 
consist of two periods over a 14-weeks total as follows:  
• Screening/Run-In period (Day -14 to Day -1) 
• Treatment period (Day 1 to Day 84) 
Screening/Run-In Period. At Visit 1 Screening (Day 1 minus 14 days), subjects who meet 
inclusion/exclusion criteria will begin a two-week run-in period during which they will be 
treated with 1 drop of single-masked vehicle per eye in each eye BID for a 14-day run-in period.  


 
VVN001-CS-201 Protocol_17June2020_FINAL  Page 4 of 68                                          CONFIDENTIAL 
  
Treatment Period. At Visit 2 Randomization (Day 1), subjects who continue to meet 
inclusion/exclusion criteria will be eligible for randomization to VVN001 Ophthalmic solution 
or vehicle. 
Approximately 165 subjects will be randomized in this study at approximately 10 centers 
located in the United States. Subjects will be randomized to one of the following 3 treatment 
groups in a 1:1:1 ratio as follows: 
Group A: 1% VVN001 administered BID (morning/evening) 
Group B: 5% VVN001 administered BID (morning/evening) 
Group C: Vehicle administered BID (morning/evening) 
Following randomization, subjects will be instructed to self-administer 1 drop of IP per eye 
into each eye twice daily (morning/evening; Groups A, B, and C). Subjects will be instructed 
to return to the clinic to be evaluated at Study Visits 3, 4, 5 and 6 (Days 14, 28, 56 and 84 
respectively). Subjects must take their morning eyedrop prior to Study Visits 3, 4 and 5. The 
last dose of IP and the final treatment visit (Visit 6) will occur upon completion of 84 (±2) days 
of treatment. Subjects will be instructed not to use any topical eyedrops (e.g., over the counter 
artificial tears or topical ocular medications) other than the study medication during the study. 
Subjects will be released from the study at the end of Visit 6 (Day 84).

Statistical Methods: 
A detailed Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) will be finalized prior to database lock. 
General Considerations 
All continuous study assessments will be summarized by treatment and visit (as applicable) 
using descriptive statistics (sample size (n), mean, median, standard deviation, minimum, and 
maximum). All categorical study assessments will be summarized by treatment and visit (as 
applicable) using frequency counts and percentages.   
All study data will be listed by treatment, subject, and visit (as applicable). 
Sample Size Rationale  
A sample size of 55 subjects per treatment group will have 80% power to detect a treatment 
difference of 0.43 units with a common standard deviation 0.80 in iCFS score, and a 
treatment difference of 13.75 units with a common standard deviation 25.5 in eye dryness 
score at Visit 6/Day 84 using a t-test with a 0.05 two-sided significance level.

INTRODUCTION  
1.1. 
BACKGROUND 
“Dry eye disease, (DED is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of 
homeostasis of the tear film, and accompanied by ocular symptoms, in which tear film instability 
and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage, and neurosensory abnormalities play 
etiological roles” (Craig 2017).   
In a recent review of the large volume on literature, “the prevalence of DED ranged from 5 to 50%. 
The prevalence of signs was higher and more variable than symptoms…”.  “…Women have a higher 
prevalence of DED than men, although differences become significant with age. Risk factors were 
categorized as modifiable/nonmodifiable, and as consistent, probable or inconclusive…”. “…The 
economic burden and impact of DED on vision, quality of life, work productivity, psychological and 
physical impact of pain, are considerable, particularly costs due to reduced work productivity” 
(Stapleton 2017). 
One group of experts concluded that the mechanisms involved in the initiation and perpetuation of 
dry eye disease are evaporative water loss leading to hyperosmolar tissue damage. “Research in 
human disease and in animal models has shown that this, either directly or by inducing inflammation, 
causes a loss of both epithelial and goblet cells. The consequent decrease in surface wettability leads 
to early tear film breakup and amplifies hyperosmolarity via a Vicious Circle. Pain in dry eye is 
caused by tear hyperosmolarity, loss of lubrication, inflammatory mediators and neurosensory 
factors, while visual symptoms arise from tear and ocular surface irregularity” (Bron 2017).  
There are overlapping etiologies of aqueous deficient and evaporative dry eye. While evaporative 
dry eye may be more prevalent than aqueous deficient DED, as the disease progresses, both sources 
become apparent (DEWS II). In both groups, desiccating stress ultimately results in ocular surface 
inflammation (Stevenson 2012).    
Given this pathophysiology, many approaches have been tried in the pharmacological treatment of 
DED. Approved pharmacotherapies in the U.S. include the immunomodulator cyclosporine 
(Restasis®, Cequa®) and the lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) antagonist, 
lifitegrast (Xiidra®). As well, medical devices marketed in the U.S. for treatment of DED and other 
ocular surface disorders include a nasal neurostimulatory device (TrueTear®) and warming of the 
eyelids (LipiFlow®). While safe and effective, not all patients with DED are fully served by these 
current therapies. Thus, there is a need for novel therapies to more broadly serve the needs of patients 
with this challenging disease.  
1.2. 
STUDY RATIONALE 
VivaVision is developing VVN001, a small-molecule antagonist of lymphocyte function-associated 
antigen 1 (LFA-1) for the treatment of dry eye disease. VVN001 binds to (LFA-1, also known as 
CD11a/CD18), found on the cell surface of leukocytes. The binding blocks the interaction of LFA-


 
 
VVN001-CS-201 Protocol_17June2020_FINAL  Page 18 of 68                                          CONFIDENTIAL 
  
1 to its cognate ligand, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, also known as CD54), typically 
expressed on endothelial cells and cells of the immune system (T cells and B cells (Smith 2007).  
One antagonist, lifitegrast has been approved for the treatment of dry eye disease. The clinical trials 
of lifitegrast showed that antagonizing the interaction of LFA-1 and ICAM-1 significantly improved 
both the symptoms and the signs of the disease. VVN001 is more potent than lifitegrast in 
antagonizing the LFA-1/ICAM-1 interaction. In addition, VVN001 showed better water solubility 
(13% weight/volume) than lifitegrast (~5%) at neutral pH.   Better water solubility may result in 
greater ocular comfort upon instillation.  
1.3. 
RISK/BENEFIT ASSESSMENT 
Safety data from the pre-clinical studies with VVN001 demonstrate an excellent safety and 
tolerability profile. LFA-1/ICAM-1 antagonists (lifitgrast) have been studied and approved for 
human use and prior clinical trials with lifigrast have demonstrated no long-term safety issues with 
administration. Given the experience with this product in pre-clinical studies as well as with 
similar approved products used in a dry eye population, there is a favorable benefit-risk ratio. 
Further the risks of this trial will be mitigated via routine monitoring and reporting of potential 
new adverse events.

STUDY DESIGN 
3.1. 
OVERALL DESIGN OF THE STUDY 
This is a Phase 2a, multi-center, double-masked, randomized, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group 
study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to explore the efficacy activity of 
VVN001 Ophthalmic solution versus vehicle in subjects with dry eye disease.  The study will 
consist of two periods over 14-weeks total as follows:  
1. Screening/ run-in period (Day -14 to Day -1) 
2. Treatment period (Day 1 to Day 84) 
Screening/Run-In Period:   
At Visit 1 Screening (Day 1 minus 14 days), subjects who meet screening inclusion/exclusion 
criteria will begin a two-week run-in period during which they will be treated with 1 drop of 
single-masked vehicle per eye in each eye BID for a 14-day run-in period.   
Treatment Period:  
At Visit 2 Randomization (Day 1), subjects who continue to meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will 
be eligible for randomization to VVN001 Ophthalmic solution or vehicle. 
Approximately 165 subjects will be randomized in this study at approximately 10 centers located 
in the United States (US).  Subjects will be randomized to one of the following 3 treatment groups 
in a 1:1:1 ratio as follows: 
• Group A: 1% VVN001 administered BID (morning/evening) 
• Group B: 5% VVN001 administered BID (morning/evening) 
• Group C: Vehicle administered BID (morning/evening) 
Following randomization, subjects will be instructed to self-administer 1 drop of IP per eye into 
each eye twice daily (morning/evening; Groups A, B, and C).  Subjects will be instructed to return 
to the clinic to be evaluated at Study Visits 3, 4, 5 and 6 (Days 14, 28, 56 and 84 respectively). 
Subjects must take their morning eyedrop prior to Study Visits 3, 4 and 5.  The last dose of IP and 
the final treatment visit (Visit 6) will occur upon completion of 84 days of treatment.  Subjects will 
be instructed not to use any topical eyedrops (e.g., over the counter artificial tears or topical ocular 
medications) other than the study medication during the study. Subjects will be released from the 
study at the end of Visit 6 (Day 84).  See Figure 2 for a Schematic of the study visits.

RANDOMIZATION CRITERIA 
At the Randomization Visit (Visit 2), an eligible subject must continue to meet all clinical 
inclusion/exclusion criteria as defined in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 with the exception of the Eye 
dryness score:  Eye Dryness ≥35 one score for both eyes (0-100 point VAS) will qualify.   Note: 
Subjects must meet all eye specific criteria from Visit 2 in the same qualifying eye as in Visit 1.   
4.4. 
STUDY EYE 
Subjects must replicate the following findings in the same eye at Visits 1 and 2 in order to be 
considered for further study eligibility:  1) Inferior CFS score ≥ 2 (0 – 4 scale) and (2) Schirmer 
score STT without anesthesia ≥ 1 and ≤ 7 mm, at Visits 1 and 2.  If both eyes meet the two criteria 
above, the eye with the greater inferior CFS at Visit 2 will be selected as the study eye. If both 
eyes have an equal inferior CFS score at Visit 2, the eye with the lowest STT value at Visit 2 will 
be designated as the study eye. If both eyes have equal score in inferior CFS scores at Visit 2, the 
right eye (OD) will be selected as the study eye. 
4.5. 
SCREEN FAILURES 
If the subject does not qualify at Visit 1 or Visit 2, he or she may be re-screened once after 14 days 
from the relevant visit provided that new informed consent to be signed, new subject number 
received and all the assessments are repeated as per protocol requirements.

The VVN001 Vehicle control has the same composition as VVN001 Ophthalmic Solution except 
that it does not contain VVN001. 
4.7.2. 
Dosage and Administration 
 
VVN001 will be administered as a topical ophthalmic solution. Subjects will be randomized to 
receive one of the following three treatment groups: 
• Group A: 1% VVN001 Ophthalmic Solution BID 
• Group B: 5% VVN001 Ophthalmic Solution BID 
• Group C: Vehicle BID 
 
Justification for Dose 
The concentrations of VVN001 Ophthalmic solution and dosing schedule were chosen based on 
non-clinical pharmacokinetic (PK) and toxicology studies and data reflecting relative safety 
multiples. For details on the pharmacokinetic and toxicology studies and the respective safety 
multiples, see the Investigator’s Brochure.  
 
IP Dispensation Instructions 
At Visit 1, eligible subjects will receive one kit of Single-Masked Vehicle Run-In.   
 
At Visit 2, randomized subjects will be assigned to an IP Kit which contains 4 weekly cartons of 
Double-Masked IP (VVN001, 1%, VVN001, 5% or Vehicle). The kit will contain a sufficient supply 
of IP for approximately 28 days of dosing. Subjects will return the used IP at Visit 4 and will receive 
a second supply of IP which will be sufficient for another approximate 28 days of dosing.  The 
subject will again return the used IP at Visit 5 at which time they will receive the last kit of IP which 
will contain a sufficient supply for dosing through the remaining duration of the study. 
 
Timing of Self-Administration 
IP (VVN001, 1%, VVN001, 5% or Vehicle) will be administered to the ocular surface twice daily 
as a single drop in each eye administered morning and evening. The subject should be instructed to 
ensure they instill at least one drop in each eye per each administration.  
 
The first dose of Single-Masked Vehicle and the first dose of Double-Masked IP (VVN001, 1%, 
VVN001 5% or Vehicle) will be self-administered by the subject under supervision of the site staff. 
This will be considered the morning dose for that day. 
 
Following Visit 1, the subjects will self-administer the second dose of Single-Masked IP in the 
evening and will be instructed to self-administer one drop into each eye bilaterally BID for 
approximately 14 days. Following Visit 2 the subjects will be instructed to self-administer the second

VVN001 Ophthalmic solution is a sterile solution for topical application to the eye at either 1% or 
5%. Placebo for VVN001 ophthalmic solution is a matching sterile vehicle solution.   
Single-Masked and Double-Masked IP is contained in 3 mL single-use droppers. Subjects will be 
instructed to instill one drop in each eye and then place the used dropper back into the kit.   All 
investigational products kits are labeled with the following information: 
• Product name, Batch number, Protocol number, Kit number, Storage instructions, Sponsor 
city and state, manufacturing date • “New Drug - Limited by Federal (United States) Law 
to investigational Use” 
Each Single-Masked Kit will contain two weekly cartons with 16 single-use droppers packaged in 
a weekly use kit (carton box with dividers) by VivaVision, or designee. 
Each randomized, Double-Masked monthly IP kit contains four weekly cartons with 16 single-use 
droppers packaged in a weekly use kit (carton box with dividers).    
Each site will be provided with emergency back-up kits of Double-Masked IP in case of 
contamination or other loss. The investigational sites will be directed to assign specific emergency 
kits to individual subjects using the Interactive Web Response System (IWRS). 
 
4.8.2. 
Product Storage and Stability 
Kits with packaged droppers are to be stored at 20-25 °C (68-77 °F), excursions permitted between 
15-30 °C (59-86 °F) and protected from light. 
4.8.3. 
Accountability 
 
The Investigator must maintain accurate accounting of IP received from the sponsor via a detailed 
inventory. This includes the amount of IP received by the site, amount dispensed to subjects, amount 
returned to the site by the subjects, and the amount returned to the sponsor or designee upon 
completion of the trial. All IP administered during the course of the trial must be accounted for on a 
drug accountability form.  
 
IP ordered, records of receipts, dispensing records, and inventory forms will be retained and 
reconciled by designated site personnel. At each visit, subjects will return all used and unused 
droppers of Run-In and double-masked IP to clinic staff for accountability purposes. Accountability 
will be ascertained by performing reconciliation between the amount of IP cartons (kits and their 


 
 
VVN001-CS-201 Protocol_17June2020_FINAL  Page 30 of 68                                          CONFIDENTIAL 
  
components) sent to the site, the amount used and unused at the time of reconciliation. No 
investigative drugs or kits will be discarded prior to full accountability by Sponsor’s monitor. 
  
Site personnel will record the date and time of the first dose  in the source documents and will record 
this information in electronic Case Report Form (eCRF). Subjects will record self-administered 
doses on a Daily Dosing Diary.  
 
Sponsor study monitors or designees will conduct accountability of IP (VVN001 or Vehicle). 
Accountability will be ascertained by performing reconciliation between the number of kits and 
droppers sent to the site, accounted for at the time of reconciliation during routine monitoring and at 
the end of the study. 
 
At the end of the study, all study materials, including any used and unused IP (VVN001 or Vehicle 
kits), as well as original vial containers (even if empty), will be destroyed or returned to the Sponsor 
(or designee) in accordance with Sponsor or designee’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), 
following approval by the Sponsor. All returns of IP will be documented. The study monitor or 
designee will verify drug accountability. All drug accounting procedures must be completed before 
the study is considered complete. 
 
4.9. 
MEASURES TO MINIMIZE BIAS: RANDOMIZATION AND MASKING 
To minimize bias, the following measures will be taken: 
• IP allocation (VVN001, 1% and 5% versus vehicle) will be randomized and masked to the 
Sponsor, subjects, and investigative staff.   
• The randomization schedule will be generated by an independent unmasked statistician 
(who is not on the project team) or designee and maintained in a secure and limited-access 
location separate from the study Investigator and members of the project team.   
4.10. 
TREATMENT COMPLIANCE 
Compliance will be assessed by reviewing dosing information recorded daily in the daily dosing 
diary by the subject. A trained Site Coordinator will document this comparison along with 
verification of returned used single-use droppers and will counsel the subject regarding any 
observed compliance discrepancies. If compliance deviations are major (<80%), the site will 
record the deviation in the source documents and in the eCRF.   
4.11. 
CONCOMITANT THERAPY 
All medications that the subject has taken 6 months prior to Visit 1 and through Visit 6 or 
discontinuation from the study will be recorded in the eCRF and the subject chart. The generic 
name of the drug, dose, route of administration, duration of treatment (including start and stop

5. 
STUDY DISCONTINUATION/PARTICIPANT WITHDRAWAL 
5.1. 
PARTICIPANT DISCONTINUATION/WITHDRAWAL FROM THE STUDY 
Any subject who wishes to discontinue the IP use or withdraw from participation in the study for 
any reason is entitled to do so without obligation. The Investigator may also discontinue any 
subject from the IP use or from study participation, if deemed necessary.  
Investigational Product use may be discontinued, and any subject may be discontinued from study 
participation at any time during the study at the discretion of the Investigator or the Sponsor for 
any reason including but not limited to: 
1. Occurrence of any medical condition or circumstance that exposes the subject to substantial 
risk and/or does not allow the subject to adhere to the requirements of the protocol. 
2. Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE), clinically significant AE, severe laboratory 
abnormality, intercurrent illness, or other medical condition that indicates to the 
Investigator that continued participation is not in the best interest of the subject. 
3. Subject's decision to withdraw. 
4. Any woman who becomes pregnant while participating in the study. Information on the 
pregnancy and outcome will be requested.   
5. Subject’s failure to comply with protocol requirements or study related procedures. 
6. Termination of the study by the Sponsor, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), or other 
regulatory authorities. 
In the event study discontinuation of a randomized subject is necessary, the Investigator should 
make every attempt to have the subject complete Visit 6 assessments as possible. If a non-serious 
AE is unresolved at the time of the subject’s final study visit, an effort will be made to follow up 
until the AE is resolved or stabilized, the subject is lost to follow-up, or there is some other 
resolution of the event. The Investigator should make every attempt to follow all SAEs to 
resolution. The reason for premature discontinuation should be entered into the eCRF and recorded 
in the subject chart. 
Subjects who withdraw from the study will not be replaced. 
Additionally, the trial or parts of the trial may be discontinued by the Sponsor or at the 
recommendation of the Investigator after consultation with VivaVision Biotech, Inc. This may be 
based on a significant number of AEs of a similar nature that warrant such action.

8.1.1. 
Adverse Event Definitions 
Adverse Event (AE):  Any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of an IP in 
humans, whether or not considered drug related.  
Adverse Reaction (AR): Any AE caused by a drug. Adverse reactions are a subset of all 
suspected adverse reactions where there is reason to conclude that the drug caused the event.  
Suspected Adverse Reaction (SAR): Any AE for which there is a reasonable possibility that the 
drug caused the AE. For the purposes of Investigational New Drug (IND) safety reporting, 
“reasonable possibility” means there is evidence to suggest a causal relationship between the drug 
and the AE. A SAR implies a lesser degree of certainty about causality than adverse reaction, 
which means any AE caused by a drug.  
Unexpected:  An AE or SAR is considered “unexpected” if it is not listed in the Investigator’s 
Brochure or is not listed at the specificity or severity that has been observed; or, if an 
Investigator’s Brochure is not required or available, is not consistent with the risk information 
described in the general investigational plan or elsewhere in the current application.   
Life-threatening: An AE or SAR is considered “life-threatening” if, in the view of either the 
Investigator or Sponsor, its occurrence places the subject at immediate risk of death. It does not 
include an AE or suspected adverse reaction that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might 
have caused death.  
A SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENT (SAE) is any AE or suspected adverse reaction occurring at 
any dose that:  
• Results in death. 
• Is life-threatening. 


 
 
VVN001-CS-201 Protocol_17June2020_FINAL  Page 42 of 68                                          CONFIDENTIAL 
  
• Results in a persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to 
conduct normal life functions. 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization. 
• Prolongs inpatient hospitalization. 
• Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect. 
• Is a significant medical event (i.e., one that may jeopardize the subject or may require 
intervention to prevent one or more of the other outcomes listed above). 
A NON-SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENT is any AE that does not meet the definitions for SAEs as 
described above.  
Each AE will be classified as SERIOUS or NON-SERIOUS using the definitions provided 
above. 
The SEVERITY of each AE will be classified as MILD, MODERATE, or SEVERE.   
The Investigator will review each event and assess its RELATIONSHIP to use of IP (unrelated, 
unlikely, possibly, probably, definitely). The AE will be assessed using the following definitions: 
Unrelated: 
 
• Event occurring before dosing. 
• Event or intercurrent illness due wholly to factors other than IP use. 
Unlikely:  
• Poor temporal relationship with IP use. 
• Event easily explained by subject’s clinical state or other factors. 
Possible: 
 Reasonable temporal relationship with IP use. 
 Event could be explained by subject’s clinical state or other factors.  
Probable: 
 Reasonable temporal relationship with IP use. 
 Likely to be known reaction to agent or chemical group, or predicted by known 
pharmacology. 
 Event cannot easily be explained by subject’s clinical state or other factors. 
Definite:  
• Distinct temporal relationship with IP use.

• Known reaction to agent or chemical group, or predicted by known pharmacology. 
• Event cannot be explained by subject’s clinical state or other factors.  
8.1.2. 
Procedures for AE Reporting by the Investigator 
AEs will be monitored throughout the study and will be recorded on the eCRF with the date and 
time of onset, date and time of resolution, severity, seriousness, causality (relationship to use of 
IP), treatment required, and the outcome.   
To elicit AEs, simple questions with minimal suggestions or implications should be used as the 
initial questions at all evaluation points during the trial. For example: 
• How have you felt since your last assessment? 
• Have you had any health problems since your last assessment? 
The severity of each AE should be categorized as mild, moderate, or severe. 
The causality of use of IP in relation to the AE will be assessed by the Principal Investigator after 
careful medical consideration and categorized as unrelated, unlikely, possible, probable, or 
definite. 
If an AE occurs, the Investigator will institute support and/or treat as deemed appropriate.   
If a non-SAE is unresolved at the time of the last day of the study, an effort will be made to follow 
up until the AE is resolved or stabilized, the subject is lost to follow-up, or there is some other 
resolution of the event. The Investigator should make every attempt to follow SAEs to resolution. 
 
8.1.3. 
Serious Adverse Event Reporting by the Investigator 
Serious Adverse Event Reporting 
It is the responsibility of the Investigators or their designees to report any event of this nature to 
the Sponsor or a designee within 24 hours of the event being brought to the Investigators’ or their 
staffs’ attention. It is also the responsibility of the Investigator to report all SAEs reported at their 
site to their Institutional Review Board (IRB), as required. The Investigator should make every 
attempt to follow all SAEs to resolution.   
The following information should be provided when an SAE is reported to the Sponsor or 
designee: 
1. Protocol Number

• Important medical events that may not result in death, were not life-threatening, or did 
not require hospitalization may be considered serious when, based upon appropriate 
medical judgment, they may jeopardize the subject or subject may require medical or 
surgical intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition. Examples 
of such medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in 
an emergency room or at home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in 
inpatient hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse.

STATISTICS 
9.1. 
STATISTICAL METHODS 
9.1.1. 
Analysis Populations 
The following analysis populations will be considered: 
Full Analysis Set (FAS) – The FAS includes all randomized subjects. The efficacy analysis will be 
performed on the FAS. Subjects in the FAS will be analyzed as randomized. 
Per Protocol Set (PPS) – The PPS includes subjects in the FAS who do not have significant 
protocol deviations and who complete the study. Protocol deviations will be assessed prior to 
database lock and unmasking. The PPS will be analyzed using observed data only for efficacy 
variables. Subjects in the PPS will be analyzed as treated. 
Safety Set (SAF) – The SAF includes all randomized subjects who have received at least one dose 
of the IP. The SAF will be analyzed for all safety assessments. Subjects in the SAF will be 
analyzed as treated.  
The statistical analysis of safety data will be performed for the SAF. The analysis of baseline and 
efficacy data will be performed for the FAS. Sensitivity analyses may be performed on the PPS. 
9.1.2. 
Subject Disposition, Demographic and Background Characteristics 
Subject disposition, demographic characteristics, and background variables will be summarized by 
treatment group.   
9.1.3. 
Analysis of Efficacy effects 
To assess whether VVN001 is more effective than Vehicle, exploratory efficacy will be performed. 
The unit of analysis for ophthalmic efficacy measures depends on the measure itself. Some 
endpoints will be analyzed per subject whereas others will be analyzed per eye (study eye and non-
study eye, where study eye is defined in Section 4.4).  
The following parameters will be assessed per eye (study eye and non-study eye): 
• Total and Individual CFS score 
• Tear production (Schirmer test without anesthesia, mm/5 min)  
The following parameters will be assessed per subject (one score for both eyes): 
• VAS for Eye Discomfort  
• VAS for Eye Dryness 
• SANDE 
All efficacy parameters will be analyzed as continuous data. Analysis will be performed at each 
timepoint using summary statistics as well as a longitudinal model as appropriate. 


 
 
VVN001-CS-201 Protocol_17June2020_FINAL  Page 47 of 68                                          CONFIDENTIAL 
  
Analyses of all efficacy endpoints will be done using the FAS. Analyses on the study eye will be 
repeated for all non-study eye as supportive analyses. Analyses may also be repeated on the PP set. 
The primary analysis will utilize a repeated measures mixed model where the dependent variable is 
the change from baseline score, treatment group is a fixed effect, baseline score is a covariate, and 
visit is a repeated measure on subject. The repeated measures mixed model is utilized to account 
for the effect of missing data under the assumption that the data are missing at random. Least 
squares means will be used to test each concentration of VVN001 to vehicle. Sensitivity analyses 
for the primary endpoint will be performed using last observation carried forward (LOCF) as well 
as observed data only. 
In order to minimize the impact of multiplicity, the following hierarchical tests will be conducted: 
1) Primary (iCFS on Day 84, study eye) high concentration vs. vehicle  
2) Primary (iCFS on Day 84, study eye) low concentration vs. vehicle  
3) Key secondary (Eye Dryness VAS on Day 84) high concentration vs. vehicle  
4) Key secondary (Eye Dryness VAS on Day 84) low concentration vs. vehicle 
The comparisons will be conducted at the 5% significance level. Each comparison will be made in 
order until P > 0.05. If P ≤ 0.05, the comparison is statistically significant and testing is continued. 
The planned analyses for all outcomes will be described in detail in the SAP, which will be 
finalized and submitted prior to database lock. 
9.1.4. 
 Analysis of Safety 
Analysis of safety data will be presented for all subjects in the Safety Population. AEs will be 
coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA, most current version) and 
categorized by system organ class using preferred terms.  AEs will be tabulated by treatment group 
with respect to their Severity and relationship to the IP. Ophthalmoscopy findings will be 
summarized descriptively.  IOP measurements, BCVA, dilated ophthalmoscopy, external eye 
exam and slit-lamp biomicroscopy will be summarized as safety outcomes.  
The primary safety analysis will summarize ocular and non-ocular treatment-emergent adverse 
events (TEAEs) using discrete summaries at the subject level by system organ class and preferred 
term for each treatment group. A TEAE will be defined as occurring after the first dose of IP. 
Serious adverse events (SAEs) and treatment-related ocular and non-ocular TEAEs will be 
summarized similarly. Ocular and non-ocular TEAEs will also be summarized by severity and 
relatedness.

9.1.5. 
Sample Size Estimation 
A sample size of 55 subjects per treatment group will have 80% power to detect a treatment 
difference of 0.43 units with a common standard deviation 0.80 in iCFS score, and a treatment 
difference of 13.75 units with a common standard deviation 25.5 in eye dryness score at Visit 
6/Day 84 using a t-test with a 0.05 two-sided significance level.  
9.1.6. 
Level of Significance 
Nominal P-values will be reported at the 5% level of significance if applicable.  
9.1.7. 
Procedure for Accounting for Missing, Unused, or Spurious Data 
Any missing, unused, or spurious data will be noted in the final clinical study report. The data will 
be analyzed as reported. The last observation carried forward approach will be used to analyze 
incomplete datasets. 
9.1.8. 
Procedure for Reporting Deviations from the Statistical Plan 
Any deviations from the statistical analysis plan will be described and a justification given in the 
final clinical study report.

APPENDIX 4:  ETDRS BEST CORRECTED VISUAL ACUITY 
 
Visual Acuity (VA) testing should precede any examination requiring contact with the eye or 
instillation of study dyes, as is detailed in the order of assessments for each Visit in Section 6.1. 
Logarithm of the Minimal Angle of Resolution (LogMAR) visual acuity must be assessed using 
an ETDRS or modified ETDRS chart. Visual acuity testing should be performed with best 
correction using subject’s own corrective lenses (spectacles only) or pinhole refraction. 
An ETDRS or modified ETDRS chart may be used. If a Lighthouse chart is used (24.5” by 25”; 
either reflectance or retro-illuminated), the subject must view the chart from a distance of 
exactly 4 meters (13.1 feet). If smaller reproductions (18” by 18”, e.g., Prevent Blindness) are 
used, the subject viewing distance should be exactly 10 feet. Reflectance wall charts should be 
frontally illuminated (60 watt bulb or a well-lit room). 
The subject should be positioned according to the elevation of the chart (either seated or 
standing) so that the chart is at a comfortable viewing angle. The right eye should be tested first. 
The subject should attempt to read each letter, line-by-line, left to right, beginning with line 1 
at the top of the chart. The subject should be told that the chart has letters only, no numbers. If 
the subject reads a number, he or she should be reminded that the chart contains no numbers, 
and the examiner should then request a letter instead of the number. The subject should be asked 
to read slowly, about 1 letter per second, to achieve the best identification of each letter. He/she 
is not to proceed to the next letter until he/she has given a definite response. If the subject 
changes a response before he has read aloud the next letter, then the change must be accepted. 
Maximum effort should be made to identify each letter on the chart; the subject should be 
encouraged to guess. When it becomes evident that no further meaningful readings can be made, 
the examiner should stop the test. The number of letters missed or read incorrectly should be 
noted. 
In order to provide standardized and well-controlled assessments of visual acuity during the 
study, the same lighting conditions must be used consistently throughout the study.

Calculations: LogMAR VA = Baseline value + (n X 0.02)  
where:  
the baseline value is the LogMAR number of the last line read (at least 1 letter read 
correctly in this line), and “n” is the total number of letters missed up to and including 
the last line read, and “0.02” is the value for each letter.

APPENDIX 5:  SLIT-LAMP BIOMICROSCOPY 
 
The biomicroscopy exam should be performed with the slit lamp using a beam width and 
intensity that provide optimal evaluation of the anterior segment. 
This procedure will be the performed in the same manner for all subjects observed at the 
Investigator’s site. The site will record all ABNORMAL findings in the source document and 
the Investigator will evaluate the ABNORMAL findings as Non-Clinically Significant (NCS) 
or Clinically Significant (CS). CS and NCS ABNORMAL findings will be recorded in the 
source documentation.  However, only ABNORMAL CS descriptions will be captured in the 
eCRF.

STUDY DESIGN  
2.1. 
Synopsis of Study Design 
This is a Phase 2a, multi-center, double-masked, randomized, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group 
study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability and to explore the efficacy activity of 
VVN001 1% and 5% Ophthalmic solution versus vehicle in subjects with dry eye disease. 
Approximately 165 subjects who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be eligible for 
randomization in 1:1:1 ratio to one of the 3 treatment groups: VVN001 Ophthalmic solution 1%, 
5% or vehicle.  
The study will consist of two periods over 14-weeks total: screening/run-in period (Day -14 to 
Day -1), and treatment period (Day 1 to Day 84).

2.1.2. Study Eye 
Subjects must replicate the following findings in the same eye at Visits 1 and 2 in order to be 
considered for further study eligibility: 1) Inferior CFS score  ≥ 2 (0 - 4 scale) and 2) Schirmer 
score STT without anesthesia ≥ 1 and ≤ 7 mm, at Visit 1 and 2. If both eyes meet the two 
criteria above, the eye with the greater inferior CFS at Visit 2 will be selected as the study eye. 
If both eyes have an equal inferior CFS score at Visit 2, the eye with the lowest STT value at 
Visit 2 will be designated as the study eye. If both eyes have equal score in inferior CFS scores 
and equal STT values at Visit 2, the right eye (OD) will be selected as the study eye. 
2.1.3. Study Treatment 
VVN001 Ophthalmic Solution 1%, 5% or Vehicle will be administered to the ocular surface 
twice daily as a single drop in each eye administered morning and evening. The first dose of 
Single-Masked Vehicle and the first dose of Double-Masked IP (VVN001 1%, 5% or Vehicle) 
will be self-administered in the morning dose for that day. Following Visit 1, the second dose of 
Single-Masked IP will be received in the evening for approximately 14 days. Following Visit 2, 
the subject will be instructed to self-administer the second dose of Double-Masked IP in the 
evening BID instilled into each eye bilaterally for approximately 84 days. 
2.2. 
Randomization Methodology 
Approximately 165 subjects will be randomized by permuted block in this study at 
approximately 10 centers located in the United States. Subjects will be randomized to one of the 
following 3 treatment groups VVN001 1%, 5% or Vehicle in a 1:1:1 ratio. 
2.3. 
Study Procedures 
The schedule of assessments, as outlined in the study protocol, is provided in Table 1.

SUBJECT POPULATIONS 
3.1. 
Population Definitions 
The following subject populations will be evaluated and used for presentation and analysis of 
the data: 
• Full Analysis Set (FAS) - includes all randomized subjects who have received at least 
one dose of the IP. The efficacy and baseline analysis will be performed on the FAS. 
Subjects in the FAS will be analyzed as randomized. 
• Per Protocol Set (PPS) - includes subjects in the FAS who do not have protocol 
deviations that impact the primary efficacy variable, and who complete the study. The 
PPS will be analyzed using observed data only for efficacy variables. Subjects in the 
PPS will be analyzed as treated. Sensitivity analyses may be performed on the PPS. 
• Safety Set (SAF) - includes all randomized subjects who have received at least one dose 
of the IP. The SAF will be analyzed for all safety assessments. Subjects in the SAF will 
be analyzed as treated. 
3.2. 
Protocol Deviations 
At the discretion of the sponsor, major protocol deviations as determined by a review of the data 
prior to unmasking of the study results and the conduct of statistical analyses may result in the 
removal of a subject’s data from the PPS. This file will include a description of the protocol 
deviations, and clearly identify whether this deviation warrants exclusion from the PPS. It will 
be finalized prior to hard database lock and unmasking. All protocol deviations will be captured 
in the CRF and summarized by treatment group and overall. The data listing for the protocol  
deviations will be also presented.

STATISTICAL METHODS 
4.1. 
Sample Size Justification 
A sample size of 55 subjects per treatment group will have 80% power to detect a treatment 
difference of 0.43 units with a common standard deviation 0.80 in iCFS score, and a treatment 
difference of 13.75 units with a common standard deviation 25.5 in eye dryness score at Visit 
6/Day 84 using a t-test with a 0.05 two-sided significance level. 
4.2. 
General Statistical Methods and Data Handling 
4.2.1. General Methods 
All output will be incorporated into Microsoft Excel or Word files, sorted and labeled according 
to the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) recommendations, and formatted to the 
appropriate page size(s). 
Tabulations will be produced for appropriate demographic, baseline, efficacy and safety 
parameters.  For categorical variables, summary tabulations of the number and percentage 
within each category (with a category for missing data) of the parameter will be presented by 
treatment group and visit (as applicable).  For continuous variables, the sample size (n), mean, 
median, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values will be summarized by treatment 
group and visit (as applicable).  All study data will be listed by treatment group, subject and 
visit (as applicable). 
Formal statistical hypothesis testing will be performed on the primary and secondary efficacy 
endpoints with all tests conducted at the 2-sided, 0.05 level of significance. 
4.2.2. Computing Environment 
All descriptive statistical analyses will be performed using SAS statistical software 
(Version 9.4, SAS/STAT 15.1), unless otherwise noted.  Medical History and adverse events 
will be coding using MedDRA version 23.0.  Concomitant medications will be coded using 
World Health Organization (WHO) Drug version B3 WHO Drug Global – Mar 2020. 
4.2.3. Methods of Pooling Data 
Not applicable to the present study.

4.2.4. Adjustments for Covariates 
Analyses of the change from baseline in primary and secondary efficacy endpoints utilizing 
repeated measures mixed model will adjust for the baseline score of the parameter of interest as 
a continuous covariate, treatment group as the main effect, and visit as a repeated measure on 
subject in the model.  
4.2.5. Multiple Comparisons/Multiplicity 
To avoid inflation of the type I error rate due to multiple hypotheses, the analysis of primary and 
key secondary efficacy endpoints will be conducted in the following hierarchical tests: 
1) Primary (iCFS on Day 84, study eye) high concentration vs. vehicle 
2) Primary (iCFS on Day 84, study eye) low concentration vs. vehicle 
3) Key secondary (Eye Dryness VAS on Day 84) high concentration vs. vehicle 
4) Key secondary (Eye Dryness VAS on Day 84) low concentration vs. vehicle 
The comparisons will be conducted by using the repeated measure mixed model at the 5% 
significance level. Each comparison will be made in order until 2- sided p value > 0.05. If p 
value ≤ 0.05, then comparison is statistically significant, and testing is continued. 
If both primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints demonstrate statistically significant 
superiority of each concentration of VVN001 versus vehicle at the two-sided 5% level, the 
similar hierarchical tests defined above will be conducted for the other secondary efficacy 
endpoints in the order of Day 84, Day 56, Day 28, Day 14 and in the order of presentation high 
concentration, low concentration within each endpoint specified in Section 2.4.2.2.  
4.2.6. Subpopulations 
No analyses of subgroups of subjects are planned. 
4.2.7. Withdrawals, Dropouts, Loss to Follow-up 
Subjects who withdrew from the study were not to be replaced. 
4.2.8. Missing, Unused, and Spurious Data 
Any missing, unused, or spurious data will be noted in the final clinical study report. Missing 
data will be handled as follows. Missing data for other data points not covered below will be left 
as missing.

4.2.8.1. 
Imputation Method for Efficacy Endpoints 
Sensitivity analyses specified in Section 4.7.1.1 for the primary endpoint on FAS population 
will be performed by imputing missing data in terms of using last observation carried forward 
(LOCF) as well as observed data only. Additional sensitivity analysis will be examined if 
needed. 
4.2.8.2. 
Missing Dates 
If the start date/time of an AE is partially or completely missing, the date/time will be compared 
as far as possible with the date/time of the start of administration of study drug. The AE will be 
assumed to be treatment-emergent if it cannot be definitively shown that the AE did not occur or 
worsen during the treatment-emergent period (worst case approach). Listings will display the 
available date data. 
The following general rules will be used: 
• If the start time of an AE is missing but the start date is complete, an AE will only be 
excluded as being treatment-emergent if the start date is before the date of study drug 
administration or if the stop date/time is before study drug administration.  
• If the start time and day are missing but the start month and year are complete, an AE 
will only be excluded as being treatment-emergent if the start month/year is before the 
month/year of study drug administration or if the stop date/time is before study drug 
administration.  
• If the start day and month are missing but the start year is complete, an AE will only be 
excluded as being treatment-emergent if start year is before the year of study drug 
administration or if the stop date/time is before study drug administration.  
• If the start date is completely missing, an AE will be considered treatment-emergent 
unless the stop date/time is before study drug administration. 
The above general rules are applicable to the partially or completely missing worsening 
date/time of AE as well. 
4.2.9. Visit Windows 
Visit windows will be calculated based on the schedule of assessments in Table 1. Any visits or 
procedures performed outside the scheduled visits must be documented in the Unscheduled 
Visit page of the eCRF. Although there is a visit window of ±2 days around the expected visit 
date, nominal visits will be used for the per-visit analyses for all the endpoints. In addition, for 
primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints, the unscheduled visit or early termination visit

will be mapped to the scheduled visit which is closest to the midpoint of two consecutive visit 
windows. 
4.3. 
Interim Analyses 
No interim analyses are planned for this study. 
4.4. 
Subject Disposition 
A tabulation of subject disposition will be tabulated for all screened subjects. The number of 
patients screened, and screened failure will be presented. The number and percentage of subjects 
included in each of the analysis populations (FAS, SAF, PPS) will be presented by treatment 
group and overall. Subject disposition events including randomization, treated, completed study, 
prematurely discontinued study and/or treatment, and reasons for premature study and/or 
treatment discontinuation will be summarized by treatment group and overall. 
A by-subject listing of study completion information, including the reason for premature study 
withdrawal, if applicable, will be presented. 
4.5. 
Demographic and Baseline Characteristics 
Demographic characteristics and medical history information will be summarized for the FAS 
populations using descriptive statistics by treatment group and overall. Demographic 
characteristic information will include age (years), age category ( <65 vs. ≥ 65 ), gender, 
ethnicity and race.  
Age will be calculated as an integer by using SAS function: Floor ((randomization date – date of 
birth) /365.25).  
No formal statistical comparisons will be performed.  
Demographic and Baseline data will be provided in data listings. 
4.5.1. Baseline Ocular Assessments 
The following baseline assessments will be presented using descriptive statistics for FAS 
population by treatment group and overall.

• SANDE global score 
 The SANDE is comprised of two 100mm VAS scales. One measures frequency 
of symptoms from rarely (0) to all the time (100). The other measures severity of 
symptoms from very mild (0) to very severe (100). The global score is calculated 
as square root of the product of the two measurements. 
The assessments below will be assessed for each eye including study eye and non-study eye, 
where study eye is defined in Section 2.1.2: 
• Total CFS score (0-20 scale) 
• Individual subregion (inferior, superior, nasal, temporal, and central) of CFS score (0-4 
scale) 
• Schirmer test result without anesthesia (mm/5 min) 
4.5.2. Medical and Surgical History 
Medical history, including ocular medical history, will be coded using the Medical Dictionary 
for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA version 23.0). Non-ocular medical history will be 
summarized in the FAS population by system organ class (SOC) and preferred term (PT) by 
treatment group and overall. SOC will be sorted alphabetically. PT will be sorted by descending 
frequency overall within each SOC. Subjects with a particular medical history event or medical 
history class will be counted once at the PT level and once at the SOC level. Ocular medical 
history will be summarized at the subject and eye levels by treatment group and overall in the 
FAS with separate summaries for the study eye and non-study eye. 
Surgical history will not be coded in this trial and thus all data as collected in the CRF will be 
provided in data listings. Data listings will be provided for medical history as well. 
4.6. 
Treatment Exposure  
Details of study drug administration, including duration on treatment and extent of exposure 
will be tabulated and presented in the SAF population. The duration of exposure will be 
calculated in days as last dose date-first dose date +1 during the treatment period and 
summarized using descriptive statistics by treatment group and overall.  
All dosing information will be presented in a data listing.

4.7. 
Efficacy Evaluation 
Efficacy analysis will be conducted using the FAS and PPS populations. All the following 
efficacy parameters will be analyzed as continuous variables and summarized at each follow-up 
timepoint (Day 0, Day 1, Day 14, Day 28, Day 56 and Day 84) using descriptive statistics (the 
number of subjects, mean, SD, median, minimum and maximum) by treatment group and 
overall. The absolute change from baseline (Day 1) to each follow-up timepoint (Day 14, Day 
28, Day 56 and Day 84) in the following efficacy parameters will be also presented using 
descriptive statistics by treatment group. The two-sample T test under the assumption of 
normality of the efficacy endpoints will be utilized for comparing VVN001 5% versus vehicle 
and VVM001 1% versus vehicle at each follow-up timepoint. If the normality is not met, the 
Wilcoxon rank sum test will be performed instead. 
Efficacy parameters:  
• Total CFS score (0-20 scale) 
• Individual subregion (inferior, superior, nasal, temporal, and central) of CFS score (0-4 
scale) 
• Schirmer test result without anesthesia (mm/5 min) 
• Eye dryness VAS score (0-100) 
• Discomfort VAS score (0-100) 
• SANDE global score defined in Section 4.5.1 
4.7.1. Primary Analyses 
The primary comparisons in this trial will be VVN001 5% versus vehicle and VVM001 1% 
versus vehicle on Day 84 in CFB of iCFS score on study eye. The repeated measures mixed 
model will be utilized to compare the treatment group. This method will assume that any 
missing data is Missing at Random (MAR). The repeated measures are the absolute change from 
baseline iCFS score obtained at the scheduled visit Day 14, 28, 56 and 84 respectively. The 
model will include treatment group (VVN001 5%, VVN001 1% and vehicle), baseline iCFS 
score, visit (Day 14, 28, 56 and 84 ), the interaction term of treatment × visit as fixed effects, the 
center as a random effect.  
SAS PROC MIXED with restricted maximum likelihood estimation (REML) and an 
unstructured  (UN) within-subject covariance structure will initially be used. The sample SAS 
analysis code will use the following structure: 
PROC MIXED DATA=indata; 
    CLASS subject center visit treatment(REF=’Vehicle’);

    LSMEANS treatment treatment × visit /PDIFF CL; 
    SLICE treatment × visit / SLICEBY=visit PDIFF CL; 
RUN; 
If the model fails to converge, compound symmetry (CS) will be implemented. From this 
model, the least squares mean (LSMEANS) for each treatment group and the estimated 
treatment differences for treatment comparisons will be presented together with 95% 2-sided 
confidence intervals for the differences and two-sided p-values for the treatment comparisons of 
the overall analysis. For assessments performed by eye, study eye and non-study eye will be 
summarized separately.  
4.7.1.1. 
Sensitivity Analyses 
Sensitivity analyses will be performed on the FAS population by using last observation carried 
forward (LOCF) imputation methodology to compare the treatment group on Day 84. LOCF 
will be used to impute missing data for the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model with terms 
for baseline iCFS score and treatment group as covariate. The model assumptions such as 
Shapiro-Wilk’s test of normality; Levene’s test of homogeneity of variance will be validated. 
The estimates of least squares mean for each treatment group and for the difference between 
treatment groups will be presented together with 95% confidence intervals and two-sided p-
value. The sample SAS ANCOVA code would be: 
PROC GLM DATA= indata; 
  CLASS treatment(REF=’Vehicle’); 
  MODEL change = treatment baseline_value; 
  LSMEANS treatment / PDIFF CL;

4.7.2. Secondary Analyses 
The secondary efficacy endpoints listed below will be analyzed using repeated measure mixed 
model by adjusting for covariates that include treatment group, baseline value, visit and 
interaction term of treatment × visit as the fixed effects. The center will be considered as 
random effect. The treatment group comparison for each secondary endpoint at each timepoint  
(Day 84, Day 56, Day 28 and Day 14) will be tested using hierarchical fixed sequence testing 
followed by the sequential order below:

• CFB in SANDE global score on Day 84, Day 56, Day 28, Day 14 
• CFB in Schirmer test result on Day 84, Day 56, Day 28, Day 14 
For each sequential order of endpoint and each timepoint, the least squares mean (LSMEANS) 
for each treatment group and the estimated treatment differences for the treatment comparisons 
(VVN001 5% vs. vehicle and VVM001 1% vs. vehicle) will be reported together with two-sided 
p-values and 95% 2-sided confidence intervals. The endpoints on study eye and non-study eye 
will be summarized in the separate model. 
The sample code of SAS PROC MIXED would be: 
PROC MIXED DATA=indata; 
    CLASS subject center visit treatment(REF=’Vehicle’); 
    MODEL change = treatment visit baseline_value treatment × visit  
                    /Solution DDFM=KR;

    LSMEANS treatment treatment × visit /PDIFF CL;  
    SLICE treatment × visit / SLICEBY=visit PDIFF CL;  
RUN; 
The model convergence and the choice of covariance structure will be handled as similar to the 
primary analyses mentioned in section 4.7.1. 
In addition, the frequency and percentage of subjects achieving a 10-milimeter increase or more 
in Schirmer test scores from baseline will be presented at each post-baseline visit and any visits

separately. The flag of this achievement will be also reported in the listing. The chi-square test 
will be performed to  compare VVN001 5% versus vehicle and VVM001 1% versus vehicle. 
4.8. 
Safety Analyses 
All safety analyses will be conducted on the SAF Population.   
4.8.1. Safety Assessments 
The following safety assessments will be summarized at each visit if applicable using 
descriptive statistics for SAF population by treatment group and overall. Assessments will be 
presented for study eye and non-study eye separately. 
• Slit-Lamp biomicroscopy and external eye exam 
 For each anterior segment such as lashes, eyelid, conjunctiva, cornea, anterior 
chamber, lens pathology and sclera,  the summary tabulations of the frequency 
and percentage for evaluation category such as normal, abnormal CS (clinically 
significant) and abnormal NCS (non-clinically significant) will be presented. The 
worsening (from normal to abnormal CS\NCS) change from baseline will be 
flagged in the data listing. 
• Dilated Ophthalmoscopy 
 The evaluation of normal and abnormal for each eye in retina and optic nerve 
exam will be tabulated by using the frequency and percentage. The cup-to-disc 
ratio by visits and absolute change from baseline at Visit 6 (Day 84) will be 
presented using descriptive statistics.  
• Intraocular Pressure (IOP) measurement (mmHg) 
 Absolute change from baseline at post-baseline visits will be summarized using 
descriptive statistics. The frequency and percentage of subjects with increase in 
IOP ≥ 10 mmHg from baseline at each post-baseline visits and any visit will be 
summarized and presented in the data listing as well. 
• Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) 
 LogMAR Visual Acuity (VA) score and change from baseline will be calculated

subjects with loss in VA ≥ 0.3 LogMAR (3 lines) from baseline at each post-
baseline visits and any visit will be summarized and presented in the data listing. 
• Conjunctival Hyperemia Evaluation 
 Overall bulbar conjunctival hyperemia grading scale: none, very slightly, slight, 
moderate and severe will be tabulated by using the frequency and percentage for 
each eye. The worsening (from low to high grading scale) change from baseline 
will be flagged in the data listing. 
• Drop Comfort/Tolerability Assessment 
 The one scored for both eyes on VAS range from 0 to 10 at 1-minute and 5-
miniute post dose and absolute change from baseline at Visit 6 (Day 84) will be 
summarized using descriptive statistics. 
4.8.2. Adverse Events 
Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities 
(MedDRA) and displayed in tables and listings using System/Organ/Class (SOC) and Preferred 
Term (PT). 
Analyses of adverse events will be performed for those events that are considered treatment 
emergent, where treatment emergent is defined as any adverse event with onset after the first 
dose of study medication through the end of the study or any event that was present at baseline 
but worsened in severity.  
Adverse events are summarized by subject incidence rates, therefore, in any tabulation, a subject 
contributes only once to the count for a given adverse event (SOC or preferred term) by 
treatment group and overall. In summary tables, SOC will be presented alphabetically and 
events within SOC will be presented by decreasing frequency count based on the total column. 
The frequency and percentage of subjects with any treatment-related ocular and non-ocular 
TEAE, with any TEAE assessed by the Investigator as related to treatment (definite, probable, 
or possible relationship), with any TEAE by severity (mild, moderate or severe), and with any 
serious adverse event (SAE) will be summarized by treatment group and overall.  In these 
tabulations, each subject will contribute only once (i.e., the most related occurrence or the most 
severe occurrence) to each of the incidence rates in the descriptive analysis, regardless of the 
frequency of episodes. Furthermore, the frequency and percentage of subjects with any TEAEs 
by outcome, with any TEAEs by action taken, with any TEAEs by action taken related to study 
drug will be also summarized in the table by treatment group and overall. Separate summaries 
will be performed for ocular and non-ocular TEAEs by the most severity and strongest 
relationship by SOC and PT by treatment group and overall.

Concomitant medications will be defined as those medications that were initiated after study 
drug administration or those that were ongoing at the time of study drug administration. If the 
start date or stop date of a medication is partially missing, the date will be compared as far as 
possible with the date of the start of administration of study drug. The medication will be 
assumed to be prior medication if it cannot be definitively shown that the medication did not 
start or continue during the treatment period. 
Non-ocular prior and concomitant medications will be summarized by higher ATC level 3 
(therapeutic subgroup) and preferred term by treatment group and overall in the SAF 
population.  ATC Level 3  terms will be sorted alphabetically. Preferred terms will be sorted by 
descending frequency overall within ATC Level 3 term. Subjects receiving a particular 
medication or medication of ATC Level 3 will be counted once at the preferred term level and 
once at ATC Level 3.  
Ocular prior and concomitant medications will be summarized at the eye level, separately for 
study and non-study eyes, and at the subject level by ATC Level 3 and preferred term by 
treatment group and overall in the SAF. 
All concomitant medications information will be presented in the data listing.
