About this study

Official title: Observational Case Series of the Implantation of Intraocular Lens "QUATRIX® Aspheric Evolutive Pre-loaded".

To describe biocompatibility, postoperative results and complications after implantation of the Corneal Quatrix Evolutive (Corneal, Croma, Austria) intraocular lens, a hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) with 4-haptic design and 360° sharp optic edge.

Read the detailed description

In this prospective case series the Corneal Quatrix Evolutive IOL was implanted in 14 eyes of nine patients with senile cortico-nuclear cataract. A standardized surgical technique and post-operative regimen were applied. Six months postoperatively best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction and complications (especially) posterior capsule opacification (PCO) were analysed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA)

    The best-corrected visual acuity is assessed with glasses after cataract operation

    Measured: Six months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Posterior capsule opacification

    The posterior capsule opacification is assessed by slit lamp examination and subjective grading

    Measured: Six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cataract, run by General Hospital Linz at 1 site in Austria.

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 9 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 19 Nov 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 Austria. 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?

Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) (time frame: Six months). 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 NCT01244373, which also lists 2 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.

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 19 Nov 2010.
