What is being measured

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

  1. Corneal Staining (Area)

    Corneal Staining Area was collected at baseline and 4- week evaluations in both eyes using a slit lamp and was graded with a 11-point scale (i.e. Grade 0= 0% of region covered, Grade 1 =10% of region covered, Grade 2 = 20% of region covered, Grade 3 = 30% of region covered, Grade 4= 40% of region covered, Grade 5 = 50% of region covered, Grade 6 = 60% of region covered,Grade 7 = 70% of region covered, Grade 8 = 80% of region covered, Grade 9 = 90% of region covered and Grade 10 = 100% of region covered). Central, interior, nasal, temporal and superior locations were evaluated. The average grade for each lens and time point was reported.

    Measured: Baseline and 4-Week Follow-up

  2. Corneal Staining (Depth)

    Corneal Staining Depth was collected at baseline and 4- week evaluations in both eyes using a slit lamp and was graded with a 4-point scale (i.e. Grade 0= None, Grade 1 =Superficial epithelial, Grade 2 = Full epithelial, Grade 3 =stromal glow). Central, interior, nasal, temporal and superior locations were evaluated. The average grade for each lens and time point was reported.

    Measured: Baseline and 4-Week Follow-up

    Corneal Staining was collected at baseline and 4- week evaluations in both eyes using a slit lamp and was graded with a 5-point scale (i.e. Grade 0= None, Grade 1 =Micropunctate, Grade 2 = Macropunctate, Grade 3 = Coalesced Macropunctate and Grade 4 = Patch (greater or equal to 1mm). Central, interior, nasal, temporal and superior locations were evaluated. The average grade for each lens and time point was reported.

    Measured: Baseline and 4-Week Follow-up

  4. Limbal Conjunctival Redness

    Limbal Conjunctival Redness was assessed for each subject and eye at baseline and 2-week follow-up evaluations.

The average Grade across all four regions can range from 0 to 16 where lower values indicate better performance. The average Grade for each individual region can range from 0 to 4. The average grade across all regions was reported for each lens and time point.

    Measured: Baseline and 2-Week Follow-up

  5. Bulbar Conjunctival Redness

The average Grade across all four regions can range from 0 to 16 where lower values indicate better performance. The average Grade for each individual region can range from 0 to 4. The average grade across all regions was reported for each lens and time point.

    Measured: Baseline and 2-Week Follow-up

  6. Visual Acuity (LogMAR)

    Visual Acuity (LogMAR) was assessed bionocularly at the 4-week follow-up evaluations. The average visual acuity (LogMAR) for each lens was reported.

    Measured: 4-Week Follow-up

  7. Lens Fitting Characteristics

    Lens fit was assessed for each subject eye at post lens fitting and 4- week follow-up evaluations. Lens fit is a binary response as acceptable or unacceptable lens fit. The percentage of eyes with acceptable lens fit was reported.

    Measured: Post Lens Fitting and 4-Week Follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ACUVUE 2, Prototype E1 and Prototype E2 in people with Visual Correction, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 1 site in India.

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 16 inclusion and 11 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 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 India. 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 17 Aug 2017). 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 (Area) (time frame: Baseline and 4-Week Follow-up). The study lists 21 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 19 Jun 2018.
