About this study

Official title: Clinical Investigation of AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® Multifocal Toric Intraocular Lens Models SND1T3/ SND1T4/ SND1T5/ SND1T6

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational multifocal toric intraocular lens (IOL) compared to an FDA-approved multifocal IOL.

Read the detailed description

Participants 21 years and older within the targeted astigmatism range and in need of cataract extraction in both eyes were consented and randomized in a 2:1 ratio at each investigative site to receive either the AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® Multifocal Toric IOL or the control AcrySof® ReSTOR® Multifocal IOL in both eyes. Each participant completed a preoperative examination of both eyes, implantation of the IOL at the operative visit for each eye, and up to 8 postoperative visits, with monocular testing at Day 1-2, Day 7-14, and Day 30-60 and binocular testing at Day 120-180 and Day 340-420/Visit 5 following the second implantation. The eye with the greater amount of astigmatism was implanted first (first operative eye). The second eye implant was intended to occur within 30 days after the first eye implant but not prior to 7 days after the first eye implant. Both eyes needed to qualify under inclusion/exclusion criteria at the preoperative visit. If the first eye was excluded during surgery, the second eye was not eligible. If the second eye was excluded during surgery, only the first eye was followed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Monocular Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UCDVA) at Fixed Distance at Visit 5

    Visual acuity (VA) was measured monocularly (each eye separately) without visual correction using a 100% contrast ETDRS (Early Treatment of Diabetic Retinopathy Study) chart positioned 4 meters (m) from the participant under well-lit conditions. +0.25 diopter (D) spherical power was applied to correct for optical infinity. VA was measured in logMAR (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution), with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on an ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity. This analysis was prespecified for the first operative eye.

    Measured: Month 12 from second eye implantation

  2. Mean Monocular Uncorrected Near Visual Acuity (UCNVA) at Fixed Distance at Visit 5

    VA was measured monocularly without visual correction using a hand-held ETDRS chart at a fixed distance that differed by lens model implanted. The logMAR ETDRS near visual acuity chart was designed for use at 40 cm; results obtained at other distances were converted to reflect the change in apparent letter size that results from the change in distance. VA was measured in logMAR, with 0.1 logMAR increment corresponding to 5 letters, or 1 line, on an ETDRS chart. A lower numeric value represents better visual acuity. This analysis was prespecified for the first operative eye.

    Measured: Month 12 from second eye implantation

  3. Rate of Actual and Potential Secondary Surgical Interventions (SSIs) Related to the Optical Properties of the IOL for First and Second Operative Eyes Separately at Visit 5

    The rate of actual and potential secondary surgical interventions (SSIs) related to the optical properties of the IOL was estimated. If an ocular surgical intervention was performed, it qualified as an actual SSI; however; if the participant met the protocol-specified criteria that would warrant an SSI, but didn't actually undergo the SSI, it qualified as a potential SSI. Rate is presented as percentage of participants.

    Measured: Month 12 from second eye implantation

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Rate of Severe Visual Disturbances/Distortions Reported on the Assessment of Photic Phenomena & Lens EffectS (APPLES) Questionnaire at Visit 5

    Visual disturbances/distortions were reported by the participant on the Assessment of Photic Phenomena and Lens EffectS (APPLES) questionnaire, a Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) questionnaire intended to evaluate 10 distinct visual phenomena associated with cataract extraction and IOL implantation. The first 20 questions addressed both the frequency and severity of the phenomena using a 4-point categorical scale ranging from "never" to "always" (frequency) or "none" to "severe" (severity). The final (21st) question indicated whether the participant answered the questions based on experiences with or without glasses. The participant completed the assessment as a retrospective analysis of the previous week. Rate is presented as the percentage of participants with severity score "severe" for the visual phenomenon.

    Measured: Month 12 from second eye implantation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® +3.0 D Multifocal Toric IOL and AcrySof® ReSTOR® Multifocal IOL Model SA60D3 in people with Cataracts, 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 12 inclusion and 23 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 29 Jun 2018. 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 6 Mar 2017). 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 Monocular Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UCDVA) at Fixed Distance at Visit 5 (time frame: Month 12 from second eye implantation). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01424189, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 29 Jun 2018.
