What is being measured

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

  1. Best Corrected Visual Acuity

    Percentage of Subjects Tabulated by Changes in Line Number at Day 90 from Baseline; Visual Acuity measured by LogMar reported as Snellen equivalents. Better: an increase of 2 lines or more in at least one eye; No Change: a change less than +/- 2 lines in both eyes; Worse: a decrease of 2 lines or more in at least one eye.

    Measured: Change from Baseline at Day 90

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Corneal Staining

    Corneal staining of greater or equal to grade 2 at day 90. Grading scale: 0 = None Present; 1 = Trace Finding; 2 = Mild Finding; 3 = Moderate Finding; 4 = Severe Finding

    Measured: Day 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Carboxymethylcellulose sodium and Glycerin and Carboxymethylcellulose sodium in people with Ametropia, run by Allergan at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 22 Jul 2015. 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 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Dec 2009). 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?

Best Corrected Visual Acuity (time frame: Change from Baseline at Day 90). 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 22 Jul 2015.
