What is being measured

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

  1. Overall Comfort Scores

    Overall comfort was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience™ (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response with a range of 0-120.

    Measured: 1-week Follow-up

  2. Overall Vision Scores

    Overall vision was assessed using the CLUE questionnaire. CLUE is a validated PRO questionnaire to assess patient experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using IRT follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response with a range of 0-120.

    Measured: 1-week Follow-up

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Average Daily Wear Time

    Average daily wear time was calculated as the number of hours between subjects reported time of insertion and time of removal of the study lenses, on an average day, at 1-week follow-up evaluation. Higher wear times indicate better lens performance. The average wear time was reported for each lens type.

    Measured: 1-week Follow-up

  2. LLHC LogMAR Visual Performance

    Visual performance was calculated as monocular contact lens-corrected distance visual acuity using a logMAR visual acuity scale. This was evaluated under low luminance and high contrast conditions (LLHC) at 4 meters from Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts at the 1-week follow-up visit. Lower visual performance values indicate better vision. Two measurements were performed for each eye at 1-week follow-up. The average visual performance was reported for each lens type.

    Measured: 1-week Follow-up

  3. HLLC LogMAR Visual Performance

    Visual performance was calculated as monocular contact lens-corrected distance visual acuity using a logMAR visual acuity scale. This was evaluated under high luminance and low contrast conditions (HLLC) at 4 meters from Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts at the 1-week follow-up visit. Lower visual performance values indicate better vision. Two measurements were performed for each eye at 1-week follow-up. The average visual performance was reported for each lens type.

    Measured: 1-week Follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing etafilcon A with novel molding process and etafilcon A with current molding process in people with Myopia, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 12 sites in United States.

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 9 inclusion and 17 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 27 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in United States. 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 27 Apr 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?

Overall Comfort Scores (time frame: 1-week 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 27 Apr 2022.
