Clinical Evaluation of Etafilcon A Contact Lenses Using a Novel Manufacturing Technology

August 11, 2020 updated by: Johnson & Johnson Vision Care, Inc.
This study is a multi-site, randomized, double-masked, 2×2 crossover design, 1-week dispensing study. Subjects will wear both Test and Control lenses in each eye in a random order for 1-week each as a daily disposable modality with a wash-out period of 1 week between the wearing periods.

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
Overall Comfort Score
Time Frame: 1-Week Follow-up
Overall comfort score was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient-reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient-experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (standard deviation [SD] 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response. A 5-point increase in an average CLUE score translates into 10% shift in the distribution of scores for the population of soft disposable contact lens wearers.
1-Week Follow-up
Overall Vision Score
Time Frame: 1-Week Follow-up
Overall quality of vision was assessed using the Contact Lens User Experience (CLUE) questionnaire. CLUE is a validated patient reported outcomes (PRO) questionnaire to assess patient-experience attributes of soft contact lenses (comfort, vision, handling, and packaging) in a contact-lens wearing population in the US, ages 18-65. Derived CLUE scores using Item Response Theory (IRT) follow a normal distribution with a population average score of 60 (SD 20), where higher scores indicate a more favorable/positive response. A 5-point increase in an average CLUE score translates into 10% shift in the distribution of scores for the population of soft disposable contact lens wearers.
1-Week Follow-up

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
LogMAR Visual Performance Scale
Time Frame: 1-Week follow-up
Visual acuity measured via Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) charts (logMAR) can take on any possible value. A value of 0.0 logMAR equates to 20/20 vision on a Snellen Scale. Lower values indicate better visual performance. The average visual performance is reported for each lens type on high contrast dim light and low contrast bright light.
1-Week follow-up
Average Daily Wear Time
Time Frame: 1-Week follow-up
Average daily wear time was calculated as the number of hours between participants reported time of insertion and time of removal of the study lenses, on an average day, at 1-Week follow-up evaluation.
1-Week follow-up
