About this study
Official title: EVALUATION OF THE EFFECTS OF CLEAR CARE® / AOSEPT® PLUS HYDROGEN PEROXIDE SOLUTION ON THE EYELID TISSUES - Part III: COMPARATIVE EVALUATION WITH RENU® MPS OVER 3 MONTH OF WEAR - CONTROL EVALUATION WITH AIR OPTIX® AQUA and ACUVUE® 2®
The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the effect of the repeated usage of 2 different care systems (one hydrogen peroxide based cleaning and disinfecting system and one PHMB containing multipurpose system) with ACUVUE® 2® and AIR OPTIX® AQUA contact lenses worn on a daily wear basis for a 3-month period.
Read the detailed description
This study was divided into 2 periods, a Screening Phase and an Investigational Phase. During the Screening Phase, subjects were fitted and dispensed with either ACUVUE® 2® (for current hydrogel wearers) or AIR OPTIX® AQUA (for current silicone hydrogel wearers) contact lenses and used COMPLETE® MPS Easy Rub® Formula to clean and disinfect their lenses. At the completion of the Screening Phase, the symptomatic status of the subjects was re-assessed. Those subjects who qualified proceeded to the Investigational Phase and were dispensed with new pair of study contact lenses identical to the lenses they wore during the Screening Phase to use in conjunction with the allocated study care product, CLEAR CARE® /AOSEPT® Plus or ReNu MultiPlus®.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Maximum Papillae
Eyelid papillae (bumps on the inner eyelid) were recorded separately for three zones of the upper lid and overall for the lower lid on a 5-point forced choice scale: 0 = None; 1 = Slight (diffuse papillae); 2 = Mild (diffuse \& tufts papillae); 3 = Moderate (moderate \& tufts papillae); 4 = Severe (giant papillae). The maximum value represents the worse grade in any zone. Both eyes were included in the model for analysis. Contact lenses were not worn for this assessment.
Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Month 3
Maximum Eyelid Hyperaemia
Eyelid hyperaemia (redness) was recorded separately for three zones of the upper lid and overall for the lower lid on a 5-point forced choice scale: 0 = Clear; 1 = Slight redness; 2 = Mild redness; 3 = Moderate redness; 4 = Severe redness). The maximum value represents the worst grade in any zone. Both eyes were included in the model for analysis. Contact lenses were not worn for this assessment.
Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Month 3
Mean Upper Eyelid Redness
The contact lenses were removed and upper eyelid redness was objectively measured through digital images. The coverage of the palpebral surface by blood vessels is expressed as percentage of the total surface measured. Both eyes were included in the model for analysis. Contact lenses were not worn for this assessment.
Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Month 3
Mean Upper Eyelid Margin Staining
The contact lens was removed and ophthalmic dye was instilled. Upper eyelid margin staining was objectively measured through digital images. The extent of true staining (i.e., the total area of lid margin covered by staining) was recorded. Both eyes were included in the model for analysis. Contact lenses were not worn for this assessment.
Measured: Baseline (Day 0), Month 3
Secondary outcomes (1)
Median Non-Invasive Pre-Lens Tear Film Break Up Time (PL-NIBUT)
The pre-lens tear film is the layer of tears located on top of the contact lens (i.e., between the eyelid and the contact lens). The time required for a dry spot to appear on the pre-lens surface after blinking is referred to as the pre-lens tear film break up time. PL-NIBUT was evaluated using a biomicroscope with a diffuse illumination source, i.e., Tearscope. A longer PL-NIBUT indicates a more stable tear film and greater on-eye lens wettability. Three PL-NIBUT measurements were recorded, and the median value was used for analysis. Both eyes were included in the model for analysis. Contact lenses were on-eye for this assessment.
Measured: Month 3

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing AOSEPT® Plus contact lens solution, ReNu MultiPlus® contact lens solution and Etafilcon A contact lenses in people with Myopia, 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 7 inclusion and 15 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 25 Jul 2014. 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 25 Jul 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?
Maximum Papillae (time frame: Baseline (Day 0), Month 3). The study lists 4 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 25 Jul 2014.
