They must be willing to wear their spectacles during the 24 hour washout period leading up to each treatment visit (NB: Emmetropic subjects who do not own spectacles must agree to no lens wear on all visit days including the screening visit).
  • The subject must have normal eye (i.e., no ocular medications or infections of any type).

Who cannot join

  • Are currently pregnant or lactating, determined by self-report (subjects who become pregnant during the study will be discontinued).
  • Have any ocular or systemic allergies or diseases that may interfere with contact lens wear.
  • Have any systemic disease, autoimmune disease, or use of medication, which may interfere with contact lens wear. This may include, but may not be limited to diabetes, hyperthyroidism, recurrent herpes simplex/zoster, Sjogren's syndromes, xerophthalmia, acne rosacea, Stevens-Johnson syndromes.

Show all 15Show fewer
  • Have any grade 3.0 or greater slit lamp findings (e.g., edema, corneal neovascularization, corneal staining, tarsal abnormalities, conjunctival injection) on the Efron classification scale or any other ocular abnormality that may contraindicate contact lens wear.
  • Have any known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to contact lenses (as assessed by ocular history).
  • Have any ocular infection.
  • Have any corneal distortion resulting from previous hard or rigid gas permeable contact lens wear.
  • Have participated in any contact lens or lens care product clinical trial within 14 days prior to study enrollment.
  • Have any infectious disease (e.g., hepatitis, tuberculosis) or a contagious immunosuppressive disease (e.g. HIV), by self-report.
  • Currently wear their contact lenes on an extended wear basis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Corneal Staining

    Corneal staining was evaluated in 5 corneal regions (Central, Inferior, Nasal, Temporal and Superior) using Sodium Fluorescein strips. The corneal Staining was graded using the scale Grade 0: No Staining, Grade 1: Trace(Minimal superficial staining or stippling), Grade 2: Mild (Regional or diffuse punctate staining), Grade 3:Moderate(Significant dense coalesced staining, corneal abrasion or foreign body tracks.), Grade 4 Severe(Severe abrasions greater than 2 mm in diameter, ulcerations, epithelial loss, or full thickness abrasion.). The total was calculated by using the sum across all regions by time point. The range for the total grade for each time point would be 0-20. The total average grade for each lens and time point was evaluated as an average change from baseline level of corneal staining.

    Measured: 20 minutes and 7 hours post lens fitting

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing etafilcon A, 2-HEMA, EGDMA Non-ionic and hefilcon A in people with Refractive Error, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 11 inclusion and 15 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 19 Jun 2018. 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 Hong Kong. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Oct 2016). 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?

Corneal Staining (time frame: 20 minutes and 7 hours post lens fitting). 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 19 Jun 2018.
