Primary outcome measure(s)
Primary Safety Endpoint: Mean Corrected Distance Visual Acuity — 120-180 days postoperative The primary safety endpoint is to show that the mean monocular Corrected Distance Visual Acuity (CDVA) at at 120-180 days postoperative is statistically non-inferior to outcomes obtained in the control group using a non-inferiority margin of 0.1 logMAR, a 1-sided test and a significance level of 0.05. This analysis will be done for first implanted eyes as well as all implanted eyes per subject.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Monocular Contrast Sensitivity - Between-group mean difference — 120-180 days postoperative The co-primary safety endpoint is to compare the outcomes on monocular contrast sensitivity under mesopic light conditions (with and without glare) between the study and the control group at 120-180 days postoperative. This analysis will be done for first implanted eyes per subject.
The following Log Contrast Sensitivity Analysis will be performed:
\- Between-group mean difference in log contrast sensitivity with 90% non-parametric confidence interval for each spatial frequency.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Monocular Contrast Sensitivity - descriptive statistics — 120-180 days postoperative The co-primary safety endpoint is to compare the outcomes on monocular contrast sensitivity under mesopic light conditions (with and without glare) between the study and the control group at 120-180 days postoperative. This analysis will be done for first implanted eyes per subject.
The following Log Contrast Sensitivity Analysis will be performed:
\- Provide descriptive statistics for the log contrast sensitivity for each group (mean, SD, median, 0th, 25th, 50th 75th, and 100th percentiles) and for each spatial frequency.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Monocular Contrast Sensitivity - frequency with glare — 120-180 days postoperative The co-primary safety endpoint is to compare the outcomes on monocular contrast sensitivity under mesopic light conditions with glare between the study and the control group at 120-180 days postoperative. This analysis will be done for first implanted eyes per subject.
The following Log Contrast Sensitivity Analysis will be performed:
\- The percentage of eyes that can and cannot see the reference pattern for each spatial frequency.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Monocular Contrast Sensitivity - frequency without glare — 120-180 days postoperative The co-primary safety endpoint is to compare the outcomes on monocular contrast sensitivity under mesopic light conditions without glare between the study and the control group at 120-180 days postoperative. This analysis will be done for first implanted eyes per subject.
The following Log Contrast Sensitivity Analysis will be performed:
\- The percentage of eyes that can and cannot see the reference pattern for each spatial frequency.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Best Corrected Distance Visual Acuity compared to historical data — 120-180 days postoperative The objective is to compare best corrected distance visual acuities (CDVA) above defined thresholds of the investigational product to the normative data stated in the according ISO norm (EN ISO 11979-7:2018) for posterior chamber intraocular lenses.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Rates of Adverse Events — 120-180 days postoperative The objective is to compare the SPE (Safety and Performance Endpoints) rates of the investigational product to reference data stated in the according ISO standard for posterior intraocular lenses (EN ISO 11979-7:2018) based on minimum 100 subjects.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Incidence of all SAE — 120-180 days postoperative The incidence of all Serious Adverse Events, including Secondary Surgical Interventions (SSIs) related to the optical properties of the IOL, in first-implanted eyes as well as all implanted eyes will be collected through Post-Operative Visit 4 (120 to 180 days after first and second eye implantation).
The proportion of first implanted eyes and all implanted eyes with at least one serious adverse event will be summarized using categorical summary statistics by treatment received. Each eye will be counted only once in the calculation of the rate.
There is no statistical hypothesis associated with the proportion of first implanted eyes with at least one serious adverse event.
Co-Primary Safety Endpoint: Rate of SSI Related to Optical Properties of the IOL — 120-180 days postoperative The rate of SSIs related to the optical properties of the IOL for first-implanted eyes as well as all implanted eyes will be reported through 120 to 180 days after first and second eye implantation.
Secondary surgical interventions related to the optical properties of the IOL will be defined as IOL explantation, replacement, or repositioning due to subject intolerance of visual symptoms not adequately improved by spectacle correction. Each eye will be classified as either having undergone a secondary surgical intervention related to the optical properties of the IOL or not having undergone such an intervention. Secondary surgical interventions related to the optical properties of the IOL will be summarized categorically (Yes, No) by actual treatment received in a table.
Primary Performance Endpoint: Mean Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity — 120-180 days postoperative The primary efficacy endpoint is to show that the monocular Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (DCIVA) at 120-180 days postoperative is statistically superior to outcomes obtained in the control group (1 sided test using significance of 0.025). To avoid bias, only the first implanted eye per subject will be considered for this calculation.
Co-Primary Performance Endpoint: Cumulative Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity — 120-180 days postoperative One co-primary efficacy endpoint is to show that the outcomes of the study device on monocular Distance Corrected Intermediate Visual Acuity (DCIVA) at 66 cm at 120-180 days postoperative needs to have at least 50% of eyes achieving 0.2 logMAR or better. To avoid bias, only the first implanted eye per subject will be considered for this calculation.
Co-Primary Performance Endpoint: Monocular best-corrected distance defocus — 120-180 days postoperative Monocular best-corrected distance defocus testing will be performed. The defocus range where the mean visual acuity of 0.2 logMAR or better is achieved will be derived by visual inspection of the mean defocus curve. The monocular depth of focus is defined as the defocus range from zero to the first negative vergence level, where the visual acuity is 0.2 logMAR or less.
One co-primary efficacy endpoint is to show that the monocular depth of focus for the eyes implanted with the study device is at least 0.5 D greater than the depth of focus for the eyes implanted with the control device at 0.2 logMAR.
