Acuity200OK Trial Summary

This trial is to collect safety & effectiveness data on a contact lens for overnight wear that can be submitted to the FDA to get approval.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals aged 7 or older with mild to moderate near-sightedness (-0.75 to -6.00 diopters) and astigmatism up to 1.75 DC, who have healthy eyes and can follow instructions for overnight contact lens wear. It's not suitable for pregnant women, those lacking psychological maturity, people with certain eye surgeries or diseases, abnormal corneal shapes, large pupils in light conditions, extreme keratometry values, or systemic diseases like diabetes.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The Acuity 200™ Orthokeratology Contact Lens is being tested for safety and effectiveness in correcting near-sightedness during overnight wear. The data collected will support a new application to the FDA. Participants must use the lenses as instructed and attend all follow-up visits.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include discomfort while wearing the lenses, redness or infection of the eyelids or conjunctiva (the white part of the eye), corneal staining which could indicate damage to the front surface of the eye, dry eyes, visual disturbances such as glare or halos around lights.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
All slit lamp results will be tabulated and findings above grade 2 will be evaluated and explained in relation to the treatment
Attempted vs. Achieved Reduction in manifest refractive error
Lines of improvement of monocular UCVA at the 12-month visit (overall and stratified by baseline sphere)
+5 more
Secondary outcome measures
A level of attempted versus achieved reduction in manifest refractive error- proportion of eyes with manifest sphere within ±0.50 D, ±1.00 D, and ±2.00 D of the target (plano) at all other visits (1 month or later)
A set of descriptive statistics of improvement of monocular UCVA at all visits (1 month or later), as well as stratified by baseline sphere and by spherical equivalent.
An analysis of change in absolute corneal astigmatism from baseline to 12-month visit
+15 more

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Acuity 200™ (fluoroxyfocon A) Orthokeratology Contact Lens for Overnight WearExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
For the orthokeratology treatment the subjects will be instructed to wear the study lenses each night during the hours of sleep (for a minimum of 6 hours) and remove the lenses during the waking hours. The subject will be examined at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months after dispensing to evaluate the ocular physiology and the treatment effect. The target refractive error (sphere) will be plano for all subjects. All subjects enrolled at two of the investigational sites (targeted total of 40 subjects) will be evaluated for the stability of UCVA and manifest refraction throughout a single day on or following the 3 month, 6 month, or 9 month follow up visits. A post-treatment follow-up visit will be scheduled 1 month following discontinuation of the study lens. When it has been determined that no additional follow up visits are required, the subject will be discharged from the study.

Answered by AI

What are the core aims of this medical research?

"According to the clinical trial sponsor, Acuity Polymers Inc., the primary outcome of this study will be evaluated over a 12 month period and is Attempted vs. Achieved Reduction in manifest refractive error. Secondary measures include Change in best corrected spectacle visual acuity (BCSVA) from at all visits stratified by baseline pretreatment diopteric group., Pre-treatment manifest sphere in comparison to post-treatment manifest sphere stratified by dioptric power for all completed subjects at the 1 month visit and later visit intervals (3, 6, 9, and 12 month visits), as well as A level of attempted versus achieved"
