Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 15 to 39 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Who may be able to join

  • Able to read, comprehend and sign an informed consent (or parental consent/subject assent, as appropriate).
  • Willing to comply with the study visit schedule.
  • Ages 15 to 39.
  • Has access to a cellular telephone with text messaging capabilities.
  • Has a current pair of spectacles.
  • 'Neophyte' - In this work, 'neophyte' will be taken to mean any subject who has never been dispensed contact lenses. A subject who has taken part in a non-dispensing clinical study or has been fitted with contact lenses in practice but never went on to actually wear the lenses, will also be classified as a 'neophyte'.
Show all 10Show fewer
  • Spherical contact lens (CL) prescription between -0.75D and -6.00D and spectacle cylinder equal to or less than 0.75 DC.
  • Monocular best-corrected distance visual acuity (VA) ≥ 20/30 Snellen in each eye.
  • Subject agrees to "intent" of wearing the CLs at minimum 6 hours/day for at least 4 days per week.
  • They agree not to participate in other clinical research during the duration of this study.

Who cannot join

  • Active ocular allergy, infection, injury, inflammation, or abnormality (e.g., keratoconus) that might interfere with soft contact lens wear.
  • Prior corneal refractive surgery or corneal irregularity (e.g., keratoconus).
  • Systemic disease, which might interfere with contact lens wear.
  • Medication usage that may be associated with eye dryness.
  • Use of any topical medication such as eye drops or ointment.
  • Pregnant or lactating (by self-report).
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Aphakia.
  • Grade 2 or greater of any of the following ocular surface signs: corneal edema, corneal vascularization, corneal staining, tarsal conjunctival changes or any other abnormality, which would normally contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • Have participated in any other clinical trial or research in the two weeks prior to starting this study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Papillary Conjunctivitis

    Swelling of the papillary (Papillary conjunctivitis) area of the eye was assessed using a slit-lamp. Comparison between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments. The Efron scale has a range of 0 (normal) to 4 (Severe) and is subjectively assessed for 0.1 increments by the clinician, with the higher the magnitude of the number the worse the score.

    Measured: 1 Year

  2. Conjunctival Hyperemia

    Comparison of the amount of redness in the conjunctival area of the eye, between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments. The Efron scale has a range of 0 (normal) to 4 (Severe) and is subjectively assessed for 0.1 increments by the clinician, with the higher the magnitude of the number the worse the score.

    Measured: 1 Year

  3. Limbal Hyperemia

    Swelling of the vessels in the limbal area of the eye using a slit lamp. Comparison between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments. The Efron scale has a range of 0 (normal) to 4 (Severe) and is subjectively assessed for 0.1 increments by the clinician, with the higher the magnitude of the number the worse the score.

    Measured: 1 Year

  4. Corneal Staining

    Abrasions in the cornea area of the eye using a slit lamp. Comparison between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments.

    Measured: 1 Year

  5. Conjunctival Staining

    Mild abrasions of the conjunctival area of the eye. Comparison between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments. The Efron scale has a range of 0 (normal) to 4 (Severe) and is subjectively assessed for 0.1 increments by the clinician, with the higher the magnitude of the number the worse the score.

    Measured: 1 Year

  6. Corneal Neovascularization

    New vascularization of the Cornea. Comparison between the two study arms will be assessed using data generated from a slit-lamp examination, using an Efron scale with 0.1 unit increments. The Efron scale has a range of 0 (normal) to 4 (Severe) and is subjectively assessed for 0.1 increments by the clinician, with the higher the magnitude of the number the worse the score.

    Measured: 1 Year

  7. Differences in Subjective Comfort From the Contact Lens User Experience (CLUE) Questionnaire

    The subjective comfort questionnaire CLUE, assesses the overall lens comfort. The CLUE Questionnaire is a validated patient-reported outcomes questionnaire to assess patient-experience attributes of soft, disposable contact lenses in the US, ages 18-65. Scores follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response, with a range of 0-120. The differences between: (final visit and first visit) and then (final visit and 6 months) are reported.

    Measured: 1 Year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Comfortable Wearing Time

    Average numbers of overall average daily contact lens wear hours and average daily comfortable wear hours as reported at each follow-up visit.

    Measured: 1 Year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Narafilcon B Contact Lens and Spectacles in people with Myopia, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 1 site in United States.

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 10 inclusion and 9 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 19 Jun 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 13 Feb 2014). 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?

Papillary Conjunctivitis (time frame: 1 Year). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 Jun 2018.
