Trial Outcomes & Findings for Trial Comparing Atropine to Atropine Plus a Plano Lens for the Sound Eye for Amblyopia in Children 3 to <7 Years Old (NCT NCT00315302)

NCT ID: NCT00315302

Last Updated: 2016-07-19

Results Overview

Visual acuity is measured in each eye using the Amblyopia Treatment Study (ATS) visual acuity testing protocol at 18 weeks resulting in an Snellen equivalent acuity score that can range from 20/16 to 20/800. This visual acuity score is converted to logMAR (log of min angle of resolution) for statistical analysis. 20/16=-0.1 logMAR; best 20/20=0.0 logMAR; 20/25=0.1; 20/32=0.2; 20/40=0.3; 20/50=0.4; 20/63=0.5; 20/80=0.6; 20/100=0.7; 20/125=0.8; 20/160=0.9; 20/200=1.0; 20/250=1.1; 20/320=1.2; 20/400=1.3; 20/500=1.4; 20/640=1.5; 20/800=1.6; worst

Participant Flow

Between Feb 2005 and May 2007, 240 subjects were randomized at 30 sites (180 with moderate amblyopia 20/40 to 20/100 in a primary cohort, and an additional 60 with severe amblyopia 20/125 to 20/400 that were followed as a secondary cohort).

Subjects must have had stable visual acuity in glasses (if applicable) before enrollment and randomization.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 18 weeks

Population: Primary analysis includes only patients who completed the 18 week exam. No imputation was done if missed exam; analysis followed the intent to treat principle.

Visual acuity is measured in each eye using the Amblyopia Treatment Study (ATS) visual acuity testing protocol at 18 weeks resulting in an Snellen equivalent acuity score that can range from 20/16 to 20/800. This visual acuity score is converted to logMAR (log of min angle of resolution) for statistical analysis. 20/16=-0.1 logMAR; best 20/20=0.0 logMAR; 20/25=0.1; 20/32=0.2; 20/40=0.3; 20/50=0.4; 20/63=0.5; 20/80=0.6; 20/100=0.7; 20/125=0.8; 20/160=0.9; 20/200=1.0; 20/250=1.1; 20/320=1.2; 20/400=1.3; 20/500=1.4; 20/640=1.5; 20/800=1.6; worst

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline to 18 weeks

Acuity is measured in each eye using the Amblyopia Treatment Study (ATS) visual acuity testing protocol at baseline and at 18wks resulting in a Snellen acuity score that can range from 20/16 to 20/800. The score is converted to logMAR (log of min angle of resolution) for statistical analysis, and a difference between the scores is calculated. A positive difference indicates acuity was better at 18wks than at baseline; a negative difference indicates acuity was worse at 18wks than at baseline.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: baseline to 18 weeks

Acuity is measured in each eye using the Amblyopia Treatment Study (ATS) visual acuity testing protocol at baseline and at 18wks resulting in a Snellen acuity score that can range from 20/16 to 20/800. The score is converted to logMAR (log of min angle of resolution) for statistical analysis, and a difference between the scores is calculated. A positive difference indicates acuity was better at 18wks than at baseline; a negative difference indicates acuity was worse at 18wks than at baseline.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 18 weeks

Population: Not reported among subjects with severe amblyopia

The Randot Preschool Stereotest measures stereopsis from 800 to 40 seconds of arc on patients as young as 2 years of age. This Stereotest is designed as a matching game in which the patient matches pictures in a test booklet wearing special glasses. A subject can fail the pretest (not see any pictures) or can score \>800 (the worst), 800, 400, 200, 100, 60, or 40 (the best) seconds of arc. If two shapes are identified correctly the patient progresses to the next lower stereoacuity level. A failed test occurs when the patient cannot identify any shapes.
