About this study

The aim of this dispensing study is to evaluate the clinical performance of habitual wearers of enfilcon A lenses following a refit with fanfilcon A lenses over 4 weeks of daily wear.

Read the detailed description

This is a 30 subject, prospective, dispensing, bilateral wear, subject-masked study, reviewing the refit characteristics in a group of enfilcon A wearers switched to the fanfilcon A lens. Subject's habitual enfilcon A lenses will be evaluated at the first vist and then re-fitted with a pair of fanfilcon A lenses for 4 weeks of daily wear. After the dispensing visit, subjects will return for evaluations at 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing fanfilcon A (test) in people with Myopia, run by CooperVision, Inc. at 1 site in Spain.

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 21 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?

Lens Fit - Centration (time frame: Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks). 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 5 Feb 2018.
