ELITA System for Refractive Errors

N/A
Recruiting
Research Sponsored by Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision, Inc.
Eligibility Criteria Checklist
Specific guidelines that determine who can or cannot participate in a clinical trial
Must have
Anticipated residual corneal stromal thickness of at least 250 microns based on preoperative corneal pachymetry minus calculated maximum lenticule thickness to be extracted
Any subject eye with a history of contact lens wear within the last 4 weeks must demonstrate refractive stability according to the following: Rigid, toric, or extended wear contact lenses (toric or spherical) must be removed for at least 2 weeks and soft contact lenses (spherical) for at least 3 days prior to the first refraction used to establish stability. Two consecutive manifest refractions and keratometry readings must be conducted at least 7 days apart. Refractive stability is defined as a change of not more than 0.50 D in manifest refractive sphere and cylinder as well as keratometry meridian (either axis) between measurements. If the subject meets the refractive stability criteria, contact lens wear is not permitted for 2 weeks (rigid/toric/extended wear) or 3 days (soft) prior to surgery
Timeline
Screening 3 weeks
Treatment Varies
Follow Up 9 months or at the point of refractive stability

Study Summary

This trial will test a new medical system for safety and effectiveness.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 22 with myopia up to -10.00 D and astigmatism up to -5.00 D, stable vision for at least a year, and good overall eye health can join this trial. They must not have used certain contact lenses recently and should be willing to follow the study's check-up schedule. Pregnant women or those on specific medications affecting healing are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ELITA System is being tested in adults with certain types of vision errors (myopia and astigmatism). The study will look at how safe and effective it is through two phases without comparing it to other treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the side effects aren't listed here, similar eye procedures may cause discomfort, dry eyes, visual disturbances like glare or halos, infection risk, or potentially incomplete correction requiring further treatment.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: ELITA SystemExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Each subject will receive a SILK lenticule removal procedure on one eye and a commercially available laser vision correction procedure on their fellow eye (Feasibility Phase). Subjects will receive a lenticule removal procedure on both eyes to reduce or eliminate myopic refractive errors (Pivotal Phase). The second eye treatment will be considered only after the first eye 1-week follow up visit has been completed and safety criteria are met.

Answered by AI

What is the objective of this clinical experiment?

"The primary endpoint of the Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision, Inc. trial is Maintenance of BSCVA over a 6-month period or until refractive stability has been reached. In addition to this main outcome measure, other secondary parameters such as preservation of 20/40 vision rates, Induced Manifest Refractive Astigmatism above 2 diopters and beyond six months with Corneal Haze leading to visual acuity loss greater than two lines are being monitored."
