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

22 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

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 Eyes With Manifest Refraction Spherical Equivalent (MRSE) Within 0.5 Diopter (D) of Predicted Postoperative Spherical Equivalent at Month 1
Time Frame: Day 20-40 from second implantation
Manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) was calculated as follows: sphere + 1/2 cylinder. The sphere and cylinder values were from the manifest refraction assessment. Manifest refraction was assessed at 4 meters under photopic lighting conditions using a phoropter. Due to early termination of the study and limited sample size, a statistical inference test was not carried out as planned.
Day 20-40 from second implantation

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
Cumulative Dissipated Energy (CDE)
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative day), each eye
Cumulative Dissipated Energy (CDE) represents the energy dissipated of the ultrasound tip and infusion sleeve at the incision point during the removal of cataractous lens. CDE was reported on the Vision System interface and measured in percent-seconds. A lower CDE indicates that less energy was expended in the eye. Due to early termination of the study and limited sample size, a statistical inference test was not carried out as planned.
Day 0 (operative day), each eye
Estimated Aspiration Fluid Used During Surgery
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative day), each eye
Aspiration fluid (amount of fluid used during the removal of the cataractous lens) was measured in milliliters (ml). A lower value indicates less fluid used during the procedure. Due to early termination of the study and limited sample size, a statistical inference test was not carried out as planned.
Day 0 (operative day), each eye
Phaco Aspiration Time Spent During Surgery
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative day), each eye
Phaco aspiration time (the average time the surgeon took to complete the phacoemulsification) was measured in seconds. A lower value indicates that the surgeon spent less time aspirating fluid and material from the eye during surgery. Due to early termination of the study and limited sample size, a statistical inference test was not carried out as planned.
Day 0 (operative day), each eye
