About this study

Official title: Post-Market Follow-up Clinical Trial to Investigate Safety and Efficacy of a Trifocal Intraocular Lens (IOL) POD L GF In Comparison With a Multifocal (TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision IOL) and a Monofocal (AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL)

The objectives of the Post-Market Follow-up (PMCF) clinical investigation are to determine the safety and performance of a hydrophobic trifocal intraocular lens POD L GF in comparison with two comparator lenses: another multifocal intraocular lens (Johnson \& Johnson TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision IOL); and a monofocal intraocular lens (Alcon AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL) through one year of post-operative assessments.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, active controlled comparative binocular Post Market Follow-up (PMCF) clinical study to demonstrate safety and efficacy between the trifocal intraocular lens POD L GF and the Johnson \& Johnson TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision IOL and the Alcon AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL.

Patients who are scheduled to undergo cataract extraction in one or both eyes and posterior chamber intraocular lens implants may be screened for eligibility in the study and, if eligible, complete a pre-operative screening visit. Both eyes of subjects who are eligible to receive the POD L GF IOL or the Johnson \& Johnson TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision IOL must be eligible to receive bilateral multifocal IOL implants. Both eyes of subjects who are eligible to receive the Alcon AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL must be eligible to receive bilateral monofocal IOL implants.

At the time of the first eye surgery, the subjects to be implanted with either the POD L GF (test) IOL or the Johnson \& Johnson TECNIS Symfony® Extended Range of Vision (comparator) IOL will be randomized to receive either the test or comparator IOL in a 1:1 ratio. In addition, 50 subjects will be implanted with the Alcon AcrySof® IQ Monofocal IOL. All subjects will undergo bilateral IOL implantation and will receive the same brand of lenses in each eye. Second eye implantations will be delayed until 1 to 30 days after the first eye implantation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing POD L GF IOL, Symfony® IOL and AcrySof® IOL in people with Aphakia, Postcataract and Cataract; Eye Disease, run by Beaver-Visitec International, Inc. at 5 sites in 3 countries.

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 13 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 19 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Germany, France, 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

CDVA in first implanted eyes (time frame: Day 120-180 both eyes). The study lists 3 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 19 Apr 2023.
