What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Mean Ex-Vivo Wetting Angle

    Study lens was removed from the eye according to protocol-specified procedures. The OCA15 (Optical Contact Angle) Instrument was used to observe, record, and calculate contact angle measurements. The wetting angle measurement was recorded in degrees (0-180), and a lower wetting angle measurement indicates a more wettable lens.

    Measured: Day 7, Hour 14

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Mean Lens Comfort

    Lens comfort was assessed by the participant on a 5-point Likert scale prior to any examination. The participant was instructed to select a single response to the statement, "My lenses feel comfortable right now," with 1 = strongly disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = undecided, 4 = agree, and 5 = strongly agree.

    Measured: Day 7, Hour 14

  2. Percentage of Participants With Solution-Related Corneal Staining

    Corneal staining was assessed by the investigator using fluorescein dye, a yellow filter, and a slit lamp. Corneal staining was graded on a continuous scale of 0% (no staining in the region) to 100% (staining covers entire region) in 1% increments for 5 corneal regions (central, nasal, temporal, inferior, and superior). Solution-related corneal staining was defined as ≥20% corneal staining area in at least 3 corneal regions of both eyes and is reported as a percentage of total participants.

    Measured: Day 7, Hour 14

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing FID 114675A Multi-Purpose Disinfecting Solution (MPDS), RepleniSH Multi-Purpose Disinfecting Solution (MPDS) (OPTI-FREE® RepleniSH®) and Senofilcon A contact lens (ACUVUE® Oasys™) in people with Contact Lens Care, run by Alcon Research.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Mar 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Mar 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Mean Ex-Vivo Wetting Angle (time frame: Day 7, Hour 14). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Mar 2012.
