The objective of this study is to compare visual acuity and adverse event outcomes from the Clareon intraocular lens (IOL) to historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) rates.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Upon meeting eligibility criteria, subjects were implanted unilaterally (in one eye) with a Clareon IOL. Subjects attended 7 study visits over a period of approximately 13 months, including 1 preoperative screening visit (Visit 0), 1 operative visit (Visit 00), and 5 postoperative visits (Visits 1-5). Visit day calculations for Visits 1-5 were based off of the day of surgery (Visit 00). Primary endpoint data was collected at the final visit (Month 12). Some sites/subjects participated in a Rotational Stability sub-study. For the non-study eye, the investigator followed standard of care regarding the follow-up, surgery, and intraocular lens choice (as applicable). The non-study eye (fellow eye) was not implanted with the Clareon IOL.

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.

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)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Key Inclusion Criteria:

  • Planned routine cataract surgery in at least one eye;
  • Calculated lens power within the available range;
  • Willing and able to sign an informed consent statement;
  • Clear intraocular media other than cataract.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

  • Any disease or pathology, other than cataract, that is expected to reduce the potential postoperative best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA) to a level worse than 0.30 logMAR;
  • Previous corneal surgery;
  • Rubella or traumatic cataract;
  • Ocular trauma, previous refractive surgery;
  • Current or recent use of certain medications as specified in the protocol;
  • Any other ocular or systemic condition that, in the opinion of the Investigator, should exclude the subject from the study.

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 All-implanted Subjects Achieving Monocular Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (BCDVA) of 0.3 logMAR or Better at Month 12 Postoperative
Time Frame: Month 12 (postoperative)
Visual acuity (VA) of the study eye was assessed with best refractive correction in place under photopic (well-lit) conditions at a distance of 4 meters using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter charts. As pre-specified in the protocol, the percentage of subjects with monocular BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or better at Month 12 was compared to the historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) rate reported in EN ISO 11979-7:2014. A higher percentage indicates good visual acuity outcomes with most subjects achieving 0.3 logMAR or better.
Month 12 (postoperative)
Percentage of Best-case Subjects Achieving Monocular BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or Better at Month 12 Postoperative
Time Frame: Month 12 (postoperative)
Visual acuity (VA) of the study eye was assessed with best refractive correction in place under photopic conditions at a distance of 4 meters using an Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letter charts. As pre-specified in the protocol, the percentage of subjects with monocular BCDVA of 0.3 logMAR or better at Month 12 was compared to the historical safety and performance endpoint (SPE) rate reported in EN ISO 11979-7:2014. A higher percentage indicates good visual acuity outcomes with most subjects achieving 0.3 logMAR or better.
Month 12 (postoperative)
Percentage of Subjects With Adverse Events (Ocular and Nonocular, Serious and Nonserious), Including Secondary Surgical Interventions (SSIs) - Study Eye
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative), up to Month 12 (postoperative)
Adverse events (AEs) were obtained through solicited and spontaneous comments from subjects and through observations by the Investigator. No hypothesis testing was pre-specified in the protocol.
Day 0 (operative), up to Month 12 (postoperative)

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 Absolute IOL Rotation
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative), Month 6 (postoperative)
IOL rotation was defined as the difference between axis of IOL orientation on the day of surgery and Month 6. IOL rotation and measured with slit-lamp photography. No hypothesis testing was pre-specified in the protocol. A lower number indicates minimal IOL rotation at 6 months.
Day 0 (operative), Month 6 (postoperative)
Mean Absolute IOL Misplacement
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative)
IOL misplacement was defined as the difference between intended axis of placement and actual axis of IOL orientation on day of surgery. IOL misplacement was measured using slit lamp photography. No hypothesis testing was pre-specified in the protocol. A lower number indicates minimal IOL misplacement.
Day 0 (operative)
Mean Absolute IOL Misalignment
Time Frame: Day 0 (operative), Month 6 (postoperative)
IOL misalignment was defined as the summation of IOL misplacement and IOL rotation at Month 6. No hypothesis testing was pre-specified in the protocol. A lower number indicates minimal IOL misalignment at 6 months.
Day 0 (operative), Month 6 (postoperative)
