Mean change in Schirmer test with anesthesia score (STS, mm) and Eye Dryness Score (EDS) from baseline to 28 days was compared between OC-01 VNS and VC groups. Consistency of treatment effect in subjects with and without AID was evaluated using treatment–subgroup interaction terms in ANCOVA models for mean changes from baseline STS and EDS, and in a logistic regression model for proportion achieving ≥ 10 mm STS improvement.Results: Of the 891 participants, 31 reported comorbid AID. In all models, the treatment–subgroup interaction terms were not significant (p> 0.05), indicating consistency of therapeutic effect of OC-01 VNS in subjects with and without AID. In subjects with AID, the treatment difference for STS was 11.8 mm and − 9.3 for EDS and difference for proportion of subjects with ≥ 10 mm STS improvement was 61.1%. The most common adverse event was sneeze (82– 84%), graded as mild by 98% of subjects.Conclusion: OC-01 VNS demonstrated consistency in improving both tear production and patient-reported symptoms in subjects with AID, consistent with pivotal ONSET-1 and 2 trial results. Further investigation is warranted, and results may further support use of OC-01 VNS for DED in AID patients.Keywords: dry eye disease, autoimmune disease, Eye Dryness Score, nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, Schirmer test score, varenicline nasal spray, Tyrvaya
