About this study

The purpose of this prospective study is to assess the efficacy, safety and patient-reported outcomes of the Menicon Z Night orthokeratolgy contact lens for reducing myopia progression in children.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this prospective study is to assess the efficacy, safety and patient-reported outcomes of the Menicon Z Night orthokeratolgy contact lens for reducing myopia progression in children in comparison with a group of distance, single-vision glasses over a 2-year period. Efficacy was evaluated by assessing differences in the axial length between groups. Safety was evaluated by comparing the incidence of adverse events between groups. Differences between groups in patient-reported outcomes were evaluated using a questionnaire that assessed vision-related quality-of-life measures.

What is being measured

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

  1. Axial length

    To compare axial length growth between white children with myopia wearing Menicon Z Night orthokeratology contact lenses and distance single-vision glasses. Measurements of axial length (in millimeters) were taken with the Zeiss IOLMaster (Carl Zeiss Jena GmbH, Jena, Germany). Three separate measurements of axial length were recorded per subject and per visit, and a mean obtained.

    Measured: Two years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Adverse events

    To compare the incidence of adverse events between white children with myopia wearing Menicon Z Night orthokeratology contact lenses and distance single-vision glasses. Adverse events were classified into serious, significant, or non-significant. Recurrences of the same adverse event(s) in the same or fellow eye at any of the subsequent study visits were classified as separate events; bilateral events will be counted as two separate events. The incidence of adverse events was calculated as a percentage of eyes per annum.

    Measured: Two years

  2. Patient-reported outcomes

    To compare vision-related quality-of-life measures between children wearing Menicon Z Night orthokeratology contact lenses and distance single-vision glasses. The pediatric refractive error profile survey was used to compare patient-reported outcomes in terms of the vision-specific quality of life between children in the Menicon Z Night and control groups. The survey consists of 26 statements scored from 1 (poor quality of life) to 5 (good quality of life), then scaled from 0 to 100 by subtracting 1 from the raw score of each question and multiplying by 25. The mean score of all items was calculated as the overall score. The survey includes 11 scales: overall vision, near vision, far distance vision, symptoms, appearance, satisfaction, activities, academics, handling, peer perception, and overall score.

    Measured: Two years

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 7 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 26 Mar 2021. 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?

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?

Axial length (time frame: Two years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04806763, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 26 Mar 2021.
