What is being measured

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

  1. Mean Corneal Incision Size After IOL Implantation (UltraSert, iTec, and iSert)

    Post-IOL implantation corneal incision size was measured directly after IOL implantation and reported in millimeters (mm). Minimizing enlargement of incision size during cataract surgery results in less postoperative inflammation, less surgically-induced astigmatism, and more rapid visual and wound rehabilitation. This endpoint was prespecified for the UltraSert, iTec, and iSert preloaded delivery systems. Only one eye (study eye) contributed to the analysis.

    Measured: Day 0, operative day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing UltraSert Preloaded Delivery System, iTec Preloaded Delivery System and iSert Preloaded Delivery System 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 7 inclusion and 9 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 2 Jul 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 28 Jul 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 Corneal Incision Size After IOL Implantation (UltraSert, iTec, and iSert) (time frame: Day 0, operative day). 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 2 Jul 2018.
