About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multicenter Clinical Trial Of the PresVIEW Scleral Implant (PSI) For the Improvement Of Near Visual Acuity In Presbyopic Patients

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the PresVIEW™ Scleral Implant (PSI) for the improvement of near visual acuity in presbyopic patients.

Read the detailed description

The clinical investigation of the PresView™ Scleral Implant (PSI) is a prospective multicenter clinical trial in which a total of 330 subjects were enrolled and implanted with the PSI and followed for a period of 24 months at up to 14 clinical sites.

An additional randomized sub-study was performed on 48 subjects with the PSI Second Generation PresView™(SGP) implant, model number SGP-046. A 2:1 randomization was used to determine the 32 subjects assigned to be implanted and the 16 subjects assigned to the observation/deferred implantation control arm. Subjects randomized to the deferred implantation control arm were eligible to receive the PSI after completion of the 6 months of observation in the study.

All subjects interested in participating in the study were screened for eligibility, and informed consent was obtained from those who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Eligible subjects were examined preoperatively to obtain a medical history and baseline ocular data.

Effectiveness: The following tests/measurements used to evaluate the effectiveness of the PSI procedure will be included in the study protocol:

  • Near visual acuity of the operated eye/eyes as compared with baseline (uncorrected and distance corrected)
  • Reading acuity of the operated eye/eyes as compared with baseline (uncorrected and distance corrected)

The PSI procedure will be defined as successful if a logMar equivalent to Snellen 20/40 or better (logMar 0.3) is achieved in ≥ 75% of patients or if 75% of patients realize an improvement ≥ 2 lines in distance corrected near visual acuity (DCNVA). For most patients, this will translate into the ability to read the majority of newspaper and magazine print without a near optical aid.

Safety: Primary safety outcomes for safety will include:

  • Incidence of anterior segment ischemia
  • Decrease in Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) of more than 2 lines from baseline at 1-month or more postoperatively
  • Decrease in best distance corrected near acuity (with add) of more than 2 lines from baseline at 1-month or more postoperatively
  • Intraocular Pressure (IOP) increase > 10mm Hg over baseline or IOP > 25mm Hg after 1 Day postoperative
  • Signs of chronic inflammation (e.g. uveitis or chronic conjunctival hyperemia) at 2 months or more postoperatively
  • Increase in axial length of ≥ 0.20mm accompanied by a > 0.5 diopter myopic shift in manifest spherical equivalent distance refraction.
  • Incidence of adverse events: total not to exceed 5%, and the incidence of each event should not exceed 1-2%

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Primary Eyes With Distance Corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) to 20/40 or Better or Improvement of 2 or More Lines

    Measurement of the Distance Corrected Near Visual Acuity at 40 centimeters achieving 20/40 or better or improvement of 2 or more lines at 24 months for the primary eye.

    Measured: From date of baseline measurement until the date of study withdrawal or study completion, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Presence of Significant Safety Events (SAEs).

    The point estimate were calculated for clinically significant adverse events (SAE's) at the end of the study. Incidence of adverse event totals should not to exceed 5%, and the incidence of each event should not exceed 1-2%.

    NOTE: Because the secondary outcome is a safety measure, both primary and fellow eyes were used for analysis.

    Measured: From initiation of the implantation procedure (operative day) until study completion at 24 months or withdrawal from the study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PresVIEW Scleral Implants in people with Presbyopia, run by VisDura, Inc. at 14 sites 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 7 inclusion and 8 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 28 Sep 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites 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 28 Sep 2018). 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?

Number of Primary Eyes With Distance Corrected Near Visual Acuity (DCNVA) to 20/40 or Better or Improvement of 2 or More Lines (time frame: From date of baseline measurement until the date of study withdrawal or study completion, whichever came first, assessed up to 2 years.). 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 28 Sep 2018.
