About this study

Official title: Acute Clinical Evaluation of MPS in Soft Contact Lens Wearers

The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate lens care solutions used with soft contact lenses.

Read the detailed description

This study was conducted as a series of ten smaller studies in three countries using commercially available contact lens solutions per each country, ie, United Kingdom, France, and the Philippines. In each study, participants were assessed after use of up to 5 products (with one always being a control saline/blister pack solution) in randomized order in conjunction with one of the silicone hydrogel contact lenses. A total of 278 participants were enrolled in the 10 studies.

Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • Contact lens multi-purpose solutionDevice

    Also called ReNu Multiplus, Ote Hydroshield, Sauflon Synergi, Lapis Lazuli Eye See Aqua Balance

    Lens care solutions CE-marked for intended use. A fresh pair of contact lenses was soaked overnight in the test contact lens solution and a pre-cycled lens case prior to study visit, then worn for two hours on the day of the study visit. Up to four solutions were evaluated in randomized order with the same brand of contact lenses, and a minimum of 12 hours of no lens wear separated each wear period.

  • Saline/blister pack solutionOther

    Also called AMO OcuPure Saline, Saline

    A fresh pair of contact lenses was soaked overnight in saline prior to study visit or was inserted directly from the blister pack, then worn for two hours on the day of the study visit.

  • Contact lensesDevice

    Also called PureVision, Air Optix Aqua, Acuvue Advance, Biofinity

    CE-marked silicone hydrogel contact lenses soaked overnight for at least 10 hours prior to the study visit, then worn for two hours on the day of the study visit. A fresh pair of the same brand of contact lenses was used for each overnight soak (ie, 4 solutions plus saline/blister pack solution), and a minimum of 12 hours separated each wear period.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Contact lens multi-purpose solution, Saline/blister pack solution and Contact lenses in people with Myopia, run by Alcon Research at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 10 Sep 2012. 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 Kingdom. 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?

Corneal Staining (time frame: 2 hours). 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 NCT00929487, 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 10 Sep 2012.
