Eligible patients had continuous medical and pharmacy benefits in the 12 months pre- and post-index periods, and no prior use of the index medication. The proportion of days covered (PDC), adherence, non-persistence, discontinuation, and switching were examined over the 12-month post-index period.Results: This study included 6537 CYC and 3235 LIF patients. The adherence rate was 5.9% for CYC and 9.7% for LIF; the median PDC was 0.3 for both cohorts. Overall, 70.8% of CYC and 64.4% of LIF patients discontinued treatment with median days to discontinuation of 89 and 29, respectively. Non-persistence was 7.1% for CYC and 6.8% for LIF (median days to discontinuation: 89 and 105). In addition, 5.0% switched from CYC to LIF, and 9.6% switched from LIF to CYC over the post-index period.Conclusion: Over 60% of DED patients discontinued treatment within 12 months of initiation; the median time to discontinuation was 3 months for CYC and 1 month for LIF. Although this analysis did not capture the reasons why patients discontinued treatment, the results demonstrate there likely exists a significant unmet need amongst DED patients.Keywords: dry eye disease, adherence, persistence, cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion, lifitegrast ophthalmic solutionWhite DEZhao YOgundele AFulcher NAcs AMoore-Schiltz LKarpecki PMDove Medical Pressarticledry eye diseaseadherencepersistencecyclosporine ophthalmic emulsionlifitegrast ophthalmic solutionOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 13, Pp 2285-2292 (2019)
