About this study

Official title: Prospective Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to Investigate the Clinical Outcomes of a ISOPURE and EYHANCE Intraocular Lenses (IOL)

This is a prospective randomised open-label study with the aim to compare the visual performance of the premium monofocal Isopure IOL versus the extended depth of focus Eyhance® IOL after phaco-emulsification cataract surgery.

Read the detailed description

This is a single center, prospective, randomised, controlled, double-blind post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) study whereby patients undergoing routine cataract surgery will have bilateral implantation of premium monofocal intraocular lenses (PhysIOL ISOPURE 1.2.3.) or EDOF lenses (TECNIS Eyhance). The patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive the study or control lenses. Both IOLs, investigational device and control device, are CE approved and commercially available in the countries this clinical investigation is being carried out. The investigational device and all study products, including the devices used for the study examinations, will be used within the intended use specifications from the manufacturer. In addition, no invasive or other burdening examinations will occur for the patient.

The device under investigation (ISOPURE 1.2.3.) is a hydrophobic, glistening-free, acrylic premium monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) manufactured by the sponsor of this study, PhysIOL sa/nv. The control lens (TECNIS Eyhance) is a non-diffractive Extended Vision Posterior Chamber IOL.

The IOLs will be implanted as part of the routine cataract surgery on patients suffering from cataract development.

Subjects participating in the trial will attend a total of 6 study visits (1 preoperative, 1 operative and 4 postoperative) over a period of 6 months. Subjects would have the option for unscheduled visits if required medically.

Primary and secondary endpoint data will be collected at the 120-180 days follow up visit.

IOL implantation experimental (ISOPURE 1.2.3.), IOL implantation active comparator (TECNIS Eyhance)

What is being measured

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

  1. monocular Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (CDVA) under photopic light conditions on the first implanted eye.

    Non inferiority of ISOPURE 1.2.3. outcomes compared to the TECNIS Eyehance outcomes in terms of monocular Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (CDVA) by means of statistical significance.

    A significance level of 0.05 or lower (p < 0.05) will be considered statistically significant. CDVA is measured with ETDRS charts placed in 4m distance with best aided corrective glasses according to ISO 11979-7:2018.

    Measured: 6 months (120-180 days) postoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Safety (Rates of Adverse Events)

    The objective is to compare the SPE (Safety and Performance Endpoints) rates of the investigational product to the results of historical data of EN ISO 11979-7:2018, Annex E (Table E.2)

    Measured: 1 day (1-2 days) postoperative, 1 week (7-14 days) postoperative, 1 month (30-60 days) postoperative, 6 months (120-180 days) postoperative

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Mar 2025. 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 Switzerland. 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?

monocular Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (CDVA) under photopic light conditions on the first implanted eye. (time frame: 6 months (120-180 days) postoperative). 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 NCT05875922, which also lists 4 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.
