About this study

This is a multi-site, prospective, randomized, controlled, double-masked, four-arm-parallel-group, dispensing study. Each subject will be bilaterally fitted with one of four types of test articles and wear contact lenses of the assigned lens type during the entire course of the study. Test articles will be worn a minimum 8 hours per day and 5 days per week (subjects will be encouraged to wear study contact lenses 10 hours or more per day and 7 days per week) in a daily disposable modality for a minimum of 6 months and up to 1 year for a total of 7 scheduled visits.

What is being measured

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

  1. Axial Length

    Axial length (in the unit of mm) was measured by a commercially available device based on the interferometry technique.

    Measured: 6-month follow-up

  2. Spherical Equivalent of Cycloplegic Autorefraction (SECAR)

    SECAR (in the unit of D) was computed from the spherocylindrical refraction measured by a commercially available autorefractor.

    Measured: 6-month follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EMO-114, EMO-116 and EMO-118 in people with Visual Acuity, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 1 site in China.

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 11 inclusion and 18 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 8 Jun 2022. 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 China. 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 8 Jun 2022). 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?

Axial Length (time frame: 6-month follow-up). The study lists 2 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 8 Jun 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
