What is being measured

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

  1. Lens Fit - Centration

    Lens fit evaluation of centration for comfilcon A sphere and comfilcon A asphere lens. (Scale: optimum, decentration acceptable and decentration unacceptable).

    Measured: baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month

  2. Lens Fit - Corneal Coverage

    Lens fit evaluation of corneal coverage for comfilcon A sphere and comfilcon A asphere lens. ('yes' - full coverage, or 'no' - incomplete corneal coverage).

    Measured: baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month

  3. Lens Fit - Post-blink Movement

    Lens fit evaluation of post-blink movement for comfilcon A sphere and comfilcon A asphere lens. (Scale 0-4, 0=Insufficient, unacceptable movement, 1=Minimal, but acceptable movement, 2=Optimal movement, 3=Moderate, but acceptable movement, 4=Excessive, unacceptable movement).

    Measured: baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month

  4. Lens Preference/Acceptability

    Investigators preference/acceptability for comfilcon A sphere and comfilcon A asphere lenses. (Choices: strongly prefer study lenses, slightly prefer study lenses, slightly prefer habitual lenses, strongly prefer habitual lenses).

    Measured: baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing comfilcon A asphere lens (test) in people with Myopia, run by CooperVision, Inc. at 4 sites in United States.

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 14 inclusion and 19 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 29 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. 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 23 Feb 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?

Lens Fit - Centration (time frame: baseline, 2 weeks, 1 month). The study lists 4 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 29 Jul 2020.
