About this study

Official title: A Randomised, Controlled Study to Compare Visual Performance, Refractive Outcome, Forward Light Scatter, Patient Satisfaction and Objective Measurement of Glistenings Following Insertion of Two Monofocal, Aspheric, Hydrophobic Acrylic Intraocular Lenses: the Alcon CLAREON® and the Abbott Medical Optics PCB00 Lenses

This is a bilateral randomised controlled study to compare visual performance, refractive outcome, forward light scatter, patient satisfaction and objective measurement of glistenings following insertion of two monofocal, aspheric, hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs). A new product is compared with an established one.

What is being measured

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

  1. Visual acuity

    As measured by conventional LogMAR visual acuity charts

    Measured: 13 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence of intraocular lens glistenings

    Incidence of presence of intraocular lens glistenings in each study arm

    Measured: 13 months

  2. Severity of intraocular lens glistenings

    Number of vacuoles per square millimetre

    Measured: 13 months

  3. Refraction (i.e. glasses prescription)

    In conventional sphere/cylinder dioptre scales: total range -40 to +40, in 0.25 steps. Higher values represent worse outcome. Values closer to 0 (zero) represent better outcome

    Measured: 13 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cataract surgery in people with Cataract Extraction and Phacoemulsification, run by Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 7 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 6 Aug 2019. 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 United Kingdom. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Visual acuity (time frame: 13 months). 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 6 Aug 2019.
