Trial summary

Cataract is a common complication in uveitis patients. Cataract operations with intraocular lens implantation are difficult in these patients because of complication due to the biocompatibility of the intraocular lens. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Two Different Acrylate Intraocular Lenses in Cataract Surgery in Patients With Non-infectious Uveitis

Cataract is a common complication in uveitis patients. Cataract operations with intraocular lens implantation are difficult in these patients because of complication due to the biocompatibility of the intraocular lens. In this study, uveal and capsular biocompatibility of two widely used acrylate intraocular lenses are compared.

Conditions
Uveitis, Cataract
Being tested
intraocular lenses: Two foldable, acrylic, sharp edged IOLs: AcrySof™ (AcrySof SA60AT, Alcon), and Akreos adapt™ (Bausch & Lomb)
Medical subject headings
Uveitis, Cataract

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

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

  1. visual acuity

  2. cell deposits on anterior IOL surface

  3. posterior capsular opacification

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing intraocular lenses: Two foldable, acrylic, sharp edged IOLs: AcrySof™ (AcrySof SA60AT, Alcon), and Akreos adapt™ (Bausch & Lomb) in people with Uveitis and Cataract, run by St. Franziskus Hospital at 1 site in Germany.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 28 Jul 2010. 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 Germany. 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?

visual acuity. 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00403832, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 28 Jul 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
