March 14, 2023 updated by: Carl Zeiss Meditec AG

Prospective, Randomized, Multi-centre, Observer-masked, Non-inferiority Comparison of Two Cohesive Viscoelastic Solutions: VISTHESIA v Provisc

To investigate that VISTHESIA 1.5 is non-inferior to Provisc with regards to elevation in IOP greater than or equal to 30 mm Hg 6 ± 2 hours post-operatively as per methodology set out in EN ISO 15798:2013 (Primary Endpoint) To compare the changes in endothelial cell count and incidences of intraocular inflammation between VISTHESIA and Provisc as per methodology set out in EN ISO 15798:2013

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

50 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Patients in need of cataract surgery

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients of any gender, 50 years of age or older at the time of study enrolment
  2. undergoing age-related cataract removal (phacoemulsification) and IOL implantation in one eye only
  3. Patient informed of the needs and visit schedule required of the Clinical Investigational Plan and who has given his/her written informed consent
  4. Planned implantation of the IOL in the capsular bag

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients not able to / willing to give informed consent
  2. Patients not able to comprehend and comply with study requirements
  3. Patients scheduled for surgery to the fellow eye within 48 hrs preceding any scheduled study follow up. (Surgery date could be changed)
  4. Patients not able to attend follow-up appointments for any reason
  5. Patients with known hypersensitivity to anaesthetics of the amide type or hyaluronan
  6. Patients with reduced corneal endothelium (e.g. Fuch's dystrophy)
  7. Patients with epilepsy, impaired cardiac conduction, bradycardia, or impaired respiratory function
  8. Patients being treated with tocainide for cardiac arrhythmia
  9. Patients with impaired hepatic function, if the anaesthetic dose or site of application is likely to result in high blood levels
  10. Mono-ophthalmic patients
  11. Patients who have previously undergone cataract surgery in the contralateral eye
  12. Patients with any psychosocial, or other chronic disease conditions that may affect the perception of bodily pain
  13. VISTHESIA (topical and intracameral components) or ProVisc is not a suitable device for the patient for any reason
  14. Patients with other pathology or condition presenting, according to the investigator opinion, a risk for the patient (to be documented in screen log)
  15. Female patients who are menstruating, pregnant, breastfeeding or amenorrheic for less than 2 years at the time of surgery
  16. Patients who may require the use of hyaluronidase as part of the study cataract procedure
  17. Patients who may be regarded as being vulnerable (e.g. prisoners, residents of care or mental health institutions, trauma, war or disaster victims, dependent on the investigator etc.)

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
September 24, 2020

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
