NaturalVue® Multifocal 1 Day Contact Lenses
Confirmed Safe & Effective for Myopia Management
Visioneering Technologies, Inc. (ASX:VTI), producer of the
NaturalVue® Multifocal 1 Day Contact Lenses, presented interim data
from the PROTECT Clinical Trial at the American Academy of
Optometry's annual meeting. Interim 1-year data from the PROTECT
(PROgressive Myopia
Treatment Evaluation for NaturalVue Multifocal
Contact Lens Trial) clinical trial, conducted across four
countries, demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of NaturalVue
Multifocal (“NVMF”) contact lenses in controlling myopia
progression in pediatric patients.
Findings:
The preliminary 1-year findings affirmed NVMF’s effectiveness in
slowing myopia progression. Over 12 months, the treatment effect
yielded a 69% (0.41Diopter) reduction in refractive error compared
to the control group. For axial length, the treatment effect
measured 0.17 mm, a notable 59% reduction. This data aligns with
prior real-world analyses, further validating NVMF’s efficacy.
Note: Preliminary data; further review and analysis to be
completed; additional insights to be shared in January 2024.
Dr. Ashley Tuan, VTI's Chief Medical Officer,
expressed:
"The preliminary 1-year data confirms our belief in the safety
and effectiveness of NaturalVue Multifocal for pediatric patients.
NVMF not only ensures clear vision but also effectively manages
myopia. The interim 1-year treatment effects are consistent with
those of the only treatment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration for myopia progression control. We eagerly
anticipate sharing more insights from the study."
VTI's CEO, Dr. Juan Carlos Aragón, added:
"VTI's innovative and easily adaptable lens design plays a
pivotal role in tackling pediatric myopia, one of the most pressing
concerns in optometry today. We're thrilled to unveil the 1-year
interim results of our PROTECT RCT, demonstrating the effectiveness
of NaturalVue Multifocal in managing myopia in children."
