Show all 12Show fewer
  • are in good ocular health, with the exception of cataracts;
  • are free of disease(s)/condition(s) listed in the "Precautions" section of the AcrySof Toric and monofocal package inserts: choroidal hemorrhage, chronic severe uveitis, concomitant severe eye disease, extremely shallow anterior chamber, medically uncontrolled glaucoma, microphthalmos, non-age-related cataract, proliferative diabetic retinopathy (severe), severe corneal dystrophy, severe optic nerve atrophy, irregular corneal astigmatism and color vision deficiencies.

Who cannot join

  • previous corneal surgery and/or reshaping
  • abnormality, disease and/or conditions of the cornea (i.e. keratoconus, corneal dystrophy, keratitis, corneal scar, etc.), which would clinically contra-indicate the implantation of a toric intraocular lens
  • planned multiple procedures during cataract/IOL implantation surgery
  • planned limbal relaxing incision (LRI), Excimer laser treatment or similar procedure prior to or during the course of the study
  • an ocular disease and/or condition that may compromise visual acuity levels (i.e. glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, amblyopia, etc.)
  • pregnant, lactating or planning pregnancy during course of study. Subjects who become pregnant during the study will not be discontinued; however, data may be excluded from the effectiveness analyses because pregnancy can alter refraction and visual acuity results. Data will be collected on the CRF as observations.

About this study

Official title: Visual Outcomes After Bilateral Surgical Cataract Phacoemulsification: AcrySof Toric Intraocular Lens (IOL) Implantation Compared to Monofocal IOL Implantation

The objectives of this study are to assess and compare bilateral uncorrected distance visual acuity and distance spectacle independence post bilateral implantation of AcrySof Toric Intraocular Lenses (IOLs) and monofocal IOLs. Secondary outcomes will include cost of eyeglass purchased and patient vision-related quality of life.

What participants receive

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

  • Toric T3 - T9Device

    Bilateral implantation of Alcon AcrySof Toric Intraocular Lens (IOL) models SN60T3 through SN60T9 following cataract removal.

  • MonofocalDevice

    Bilateral implantation of any monofocal Intraocular Lens (IOL) following cataract removal.

What is being measured

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

  1. Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity

    Visual Acuity (VA) is measured in logMAR. LogMAR is the "logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution". A lower logMAR value indicates better visual acuity.

    Measured: 6 Months After Surgery

  2. Spectacle Independence

    Spectacle Independence (the ability of the patient to go without corrective lenses) measured by a subjective patient questionnaire.

    Measured: 6 Months After Surgery

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Vision-related Quality of Life

    Vision related quality of life as measured by a subjective subject questionnaire.

    Measured: 6 Months After Surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Toric T3 - T9 and Monofocal in people with Cataract, run by Alcon Research at 1 site in France.

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 12 inclusion and 6 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 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 France. 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 phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Business decision to close study based on low enrollment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (time frame: 6 Months After Surgery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 Oct 2012.
