Subject Confidentiality and Methods Used to Minimize Bias Sample Clauses

Subject Confidentiality and Methods Used to Minimize Bias. The Investigator must ensure that the subject’s anonymity is maintained throughout the course of the study. In particular, the Investigator must keep an enrollment log with confidential identifying information that corresponds to the subject numbers and initials of each study participant. At the end of the clinical study, the Sponsor will collect a copy of the enrollment log without any identifying subject information. All documents submitted to the Sponsor will identify the subjects exclusively by number and demographic information. No other personally identifying information should be transmitted to the Sponsor.‌‌‌ This study is double-masked with subjects randomized to use both DD T2 and the assigned control product (in a randomized sequence) for the duration of the treatment period. The Investigator and Sponsor personnel (other than site monitors, lead clinical site manager, person responsible for generating the randomization schedule, and unmasked clinical data managers) involved in reporting, obtaining, and/or reviewing the clinical evaluations will be masked to the identity of the contact lens being administered. This level of masking will be maintained throughout the conduct of the study. Unmasking will occur only after all planned study data have been validated, and the database locked. Masked study personnel must avoid seeking information that may compromise masking. Unmasked study personnel must not disseminate information that is potentially unmasking to any masked personnel. The masked and unmasked site personnel must coordinate all study activities as necessary to protect masking and minimize bias during the trial.

Visual acuity is the primary endpoint and the study is controlled DAILIES TOTAL1 or Acuvue Oasys 1-Day wearers will be excluded.

In particular, the Investigator must keep an enrollment log with confidential identifying information that corresponds to the subject numbers and initials of each study participant. At the end of the clinical study, the Sponsor will collect a copy of the enrollment log without any identifying subject information. All documents submitted to the Sponsor will identify the subjects exclusively by subject ID and demographic information. No other personally identifying information should be transmitted to the Sponsor. The intent of masking is to limit the occurrence of conscious and unconscious bias in the conduct and interpretation of the clinical study. Bias could arise from the influence that the knowledge of a specific treatment assignment may have on the recruitment and allocation of subjects, their subsequent care, the assessment of end points, the handling of withdrawals, and so on. The essential aim of masking, therefore, is to prevent identification of the test article(s) by the Investigator, subject, and others associated with the conduct of the study until all such opportunities for bias have passed. This study is Investigator-masked and subject quasi-masked (masked to test solution brand only), with subjects randomized to the order in which they will use OFPM and their HMPS for 30 ± 3 days each. The Investigator will not be aware of the specific treatment being administered and the subject will not be aware of the brand of the test solution. Alcon study personnel will be masked, with the exception of the following: Study monitor, Lead CSM, and person responsible for generating the randomization schedule. This level of masking will be maintained throughout the conduct of the study. Subjects will be assigned treatment order based on the randomization schedule; it will be blocked to ensure a balance of study treatment allocations within investigational sites. The randomization scheme will be generated and maintained by the Sponsor. In the event of a medical emergency where the knowledge of subject treatment is required, an individual Investigator will have the ability to unmask the treatment sequence assignment for a specific subject.
