About this study

Official title: Non-Dispensing Fitting Study Comparing the Clinical Performance of Hydrogel vs. Silicone Hydrogel Sphere Design Contact Lenses

The aim of this non-dispensing fitting study is to evaluate the subjective comfort, lens handling, lens fitting characteristics and visual acuity of different hydrogel lens designs versus silicone hydrogel lenses

Read the detailed description

This is a 60-subject, double masked, randomized, contra lateral, non-dispensing fitting trial comparing different lens materials (hydrogel vs silicone hydrogel). It is anticipated that this study will involve 2 visits, for each lens pair, as follows: Visits: V1 (lens dispensing), V2 (1 hour post lens settling). Each subject will be randomized to wear the test and control lenses in a series of three short fitting comparisons.

Conditions

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ocufilcon D, omafilcon A and methafilcon A in people with Myopia, run by CooperVision, Inc. at 1 site in Spain.

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 22 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 4 Apr 2017. 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 Spain. 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 22 Jul 2016). 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?

Participant's Subjective Rating for Lens Handling - Enfilcon A / Omafilcon A (time frame: 1 hour post settling). The study lists 33 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 4 Apr 2017.
