Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Subjects Satisfying the "no Re-fit" Criteria in Both Eyes
Time Frame: Day 30, each product
Overall lens fit was graded by the Investigator on a 5-point scale: -2 (unacceptably tight); -1 (acceptably tight); 0 (optimal fit); +1 (acceptable loose); +2 (unacceptable loose). 'No re-fit' criteria was satisfied if an acceptable or optimal overall lens fit, that was also within one grade of the habitual lens fit value, was achieved.
Day 30, each product

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Ex Vivo Total Cholesterol Uptake After 30 Days of Wear
Time Frame: Day 30, each product
The contact lens was removed from the eye. Cholesterol deposits were extracted and measured in micrograms (μg) per lens. Lower deposits indicate increased lens performance. Only one eye (right eye) contributed to the analysis.
Day 30, each product
Change From Insertion in Minimum Protected Area (MPA)
Time Frame: Hour 0 (Lens Insertion) to Hour 12 on Day 1
MPA (the minimum area of the contact lens surface (expressed in %) protected by the tear film between two natural blinks) was assessed by the Investigator during the interblink period using the Tearscope® lighting system. Higher values indicate a more stable tear film in front of the lens. This Outcome Measure was pre-specified for AOHG only. Both eyes contributed to the analysis.
Hour 0 (Lens Insertion) to Hour 12 on Day 1
