  • Any ocular infection, allergy or clinically significant ocular disease (e.g. corneal edema, uveitis, severe keratoconjunctivitis sicca, ocular hypertension), or ocular conditions (e.g. strabismus), which might interfere with the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Eyestrain Related to Glare

    Eyestrain related to glare was assessed at the 2-, 4-, 8- and 12- week follow-up visits using an 11-item questionnaire. This questionnaire assesses patient-experience attributes of soft contact lenses. Derived eyestrain related to glare scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. Scores in this study ranged from 30 to 70. Lower scores indicate better performance. This questionnaire is still under development and the data collected is considered exploratory.

    Measured: Up to 12-Week Follow-up

  2. Distance Monocular logMAR Visual Acuity (VA)

    Distance logMAR Visual Acuity was assessed for each subject and eye at 2-, 4- 8- and 12-weeks. The average logMAR visual acuity for each lens and time point was reported. Lower values of logMAR indicate better vision.

    Measured: Up to 12-Week Follow-up

  3. Percentage of Eyes With Grade 3 or Higher Slit Lamp Findings

    Slit lamp findings were graded using a FDA Grade Scale, 0 = None, 1 = Slight, 2 = Moderate, 3 = Significant, 4 = Advanced. Measurements were taken in each subject eye at the initial visit, 2-4-8- and 12-week follow-ups. A new response variable was derived by dichotomizing the data as follows: 1 if a Grade 3or higher SLF was observed and 0 otherwise. The Percentage of eyes with Grade 3 or higher SLFs was reported for each lens and time point.

    Measured: Up to 12-Week Follow-up

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Contact Lens Wearing Time

    Contact lens wearing time (hours) was self-reported by each subject at the 2-, 4-, 8- and 12-week follow-ups. The average contact lens wearing time (hours) for each lens and time point was reported.

    Measured: Up to 12-Week Follow-up

  2. Percentage of Eyes With Subject Reported Symptoms Problems or Complaints

    Symptoms, problems and complaints are subject reported and were collected for each subject eye at the 1-, 2-, 4-, 8- and 12-week follow-up evaluations. The data is reported as a binary outcome of yes if a subject experience a problem or complaint or no otherwise. Symptoms, problems and complaints include the following: Burning/Stinging, Itchiness/Scratchiness, Dryness, Lens Awareness, Grittiness/Foreign Body Sensation, Redness, Irritation/Discomfort, Cloudy/Blurry/Hazy, Variable Vision and Other The Percentage of subjects eyes with symptoms, problems or complaints was reported for each lens and time point.

    Measured: Up to 12-Week Follow-up

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing senofilcon A with new UV blocker and senofilcon A in people with Visual Acuity, run by Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc. at 6 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 10 inclusion and 13 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 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 19 Jul 2018). 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?

Eyestrain Related to Glare (time frame: Up to 12-Week Follow-up). The study lists 3 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 Jul 2018.
