  • Test LensDevice

    senofilcon A or narafilcon A

Study groups in NCT02164396
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Spectacles LensActive comparatorParticipant will discontinue soft contact lens wear and wear spectacles only. Spectacle lens refers to the habitual prescription glasses that the participant arrives to the testing center with; they are NOT prescribed or given to the participant by the investigator as part of the study protocol.
Receives: Device: Spectacle Lens
Habitual Soft Contact LensActive comparatorParticipant will continue to wear their habitual soft contact lenses. Habitual lenses are the contact lenses used by the subjects prior to participating in the clinical trial. Various types/brands are used by subjects prior to participation.
Receives: Device: Habitual Soft Contact Lens
Test LensExperimentalParticipants will be dispensed senofilcon A or narafilcon A depending on their habitual modality (reusable or daily disposable)
Receives: Device: Test Lens

What is being measured

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

  1. Lid-Parallel Conjunctival Folds (LIPCOF)

    LIPCOF was assessed at baseline to 2-, 4-, 8- and 12- week Follow-up. Each subject eye was graded using a 4- point using the scale (Grade 0: No conjunctival folds, Grade 1: One permanent and clear parallel fold, Grade 2: Two permanent and clear parallel folds, (normally lower than 0.2mm) and Grade 3: More than two permanent and clear parallel folds, (normally higher than 0.2mm) at two 2 locations in the eye (Temporal and Nasal). The graded responses for each location (Temporal and Nasal) was average. The sum of the average LIPCOF grade for Temporal and Nasal was reported. (Score=average Nasal Grade + average Temporal Grade).

    Measured: Baseline, 2-, 4-, 8- and 12-Week Follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Spectacle Lens, Habitual Soft Contact Lens and Test Lens in people with Lid-Parallel Conjunctival Folds, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 1 site in Germany.

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 10 inclusion and 15 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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 Germany. 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?

Lid-Parallel Conjunctival Folds (LIPCOF) (time frame: Baseline, 2-, 4-, 8- and 12-Week Follow-up). 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.
