What is being measured

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

  1. Final Comfort

    Comfort was assessed by the participant on a Visual Analog Scale of 0 to 100, where 0=Extremely Uncomfortable ("My eyes are in pain. I cannot tolerate my lenses") and 100=Extremely Comfortable ("My eyes feel GREAT, better than normal. I cannot feel my lenses").

    Measured: Day 2, Hour 10

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lotrafilcon A test contact lens and Ultra-High Resolution Optical Coherence Tomographer (OCT) in people with Ocular Comfort, run by CIBA VISION 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 7 inclusion and 5 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 Jun 2013. 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 21 Dec 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?

Final Comfort (time frame: Day 2, Hour 10). 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 Jun 2013.
