1 Introduction 
CooperVision, (CVI) is extending the power range of the commercially available Biofinity silicone 
hydrogel contact lenses to include multifocal toric silicone hydrogel contact lenses (Biofinity MFT).   
This study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the Biofinity MFT lenses.   
2 Study Objective 
 
The objective of this non-dispensing clinical study is to compare the clinical performance of 
Biofinity Multifocal Toric (BF MFT) with Proclear Multifocal Toric (PC MFT) contact lenses. 
The primary variable of interest is: 
• Visual acuity (VA)  
The secondary variable of interest is: 
• 
Subjective assessments of visual performance  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
2.1 Study Hypothesis  
The study hypothesis is that the Biofinity Multifocal Toric lenses will not be clinically inferior to 
Proclear Multifocal Toric lenses.  
3 Study Design  
This non-dispensing, subject masked, randomized, bilateral crossover study will compare the clinical 
performance of Biofinity Multifocal Toric contact lenses. 
Up to 20 subjects, who have worn soft contact lenses in the last six months, will be enrolled. 
This study will be composed of two parts. Part A will involve a screening/baseline visit for the 
determination of subject’s contact lens prescription based on their spectacle refraction. With the 

Confidential  
 
 
Protocol Version 1.0: CV-18-11  
 
v 3.2: 17-Apr-17

information obtained from Part A, Biofinity Multifocal Toric and Proclear Multifocal Toric contact 
lenses will be made to order on a per-patient basis for use in Part B to assess the clinical 
performance of the lenses. 
Subjects must be able to participate in both parts of the study; Part A of the study will last 
approximately 1-2 hours duration and Part B will last approximately 3-4 hours duration.   
4 Ethics Review / Statement of Compliance 
4.1 Relevant Standards / Guidelines 
This implementation document has been developed in accordance with the following:   
• 
ISO 14155 Clinical Investigation of Medical Devices for Human Subjects 
• 
21 CFR 812.2(b) Investigational Device Exemption – Abbreviated Requirements 
• 
ISO 11980 Contact Lens and Lens Care products – Guidance for Clinical Investigations 
• 
ICH Harmonized Tripartite Guideline for Good Clinical Practice 
• 
Declaration of Helsinki 
 
4.2 Institutional Review Board 
This study will be conducted in accordance with Institutional Review Board regulations (U.S. 21CFR 
Part 56.103) or applicable IEC regulations. Copies of all IRB/IEC correspondence with the 
investigator/sponsor will be kept on file. 
 
The conduct of this study will be approved by The University of Manchester committee on the ethics 
of research on human beings (hereafter referred to as Manchester UREC) prior to commencement. 
 
4.3 Informed Consent 
Informed consent shall be obtained in writing from the subject and the process shall be documented 
before any procedure specific to the clinical investigation is carried out.

5 Clinical Trial Registration 
This study will be registered with ClinicalTrials.gov in accordance with Section 801of the Food and 
Drug Administration Act (FDAA) which mandates the registration of certain clinical trials of drugs 
and medical devices. 
6 Potential Risks and Benefits to Human Subjects 
There might not be direct benefits to the subjects in this study. However, participation in a study 
may contribute to scientific research information that may be used in the development of new contact 
lens products. In addition, subjects will receive an examination of the front part of their eyes and 
may have the opportunity to try a different type of soft contact lenses and/or different lens care 
products at no cost to them.  
The investigational contact lenses used in this study are CE marked and intended for daily wear 
(NOT extended wear) with usage of up to four hours only, in contrast to the average wearing time 
of 10-16 hours for daily wear lenses. In addition, this study is a non-dispensing study, meaning the 
lenses are not dispensed to subjects to take home and lens wear will be monitored closely by the 
investigators. 
This study is considered to be a non-significant risk study based on United State Food and Drug 
administration (FDA) and International Standards Organization (ISO) guidelines due to no potential 
of serious risk to the health, safety, or welfare of a subject. 
Complications that may occur during the wearing of contact lenses include discomfort, dryness, 
aching or itching eyes, excessive tearing, discharge, hyperemia and variable or blurred vision.  More 
serious risks may include photophobia, iritis, corneal edema and eye infection. Although contact 
lens-related infections are very infrequent, the possibility does exist.  The incidence of infection due 
to day-wear soft lenses is 0.035%.  An infection will usually occur only in one eye.  This risk is 
assumed by 35 million Americans who currently wear contact lenses. 
Routine clinical procedures including auto-refraction, auto-keratometry, visual acuity, anterior ocular 
health assessment, and contact lens fitting may be used. In addition, high magnification imaging of 
the lens fit may be made using 35 mm or digital cameras.

not reported as adverse events unless in the investigator’s opinion they are unexpected in 
nature, severe or have a high rate of occurrence. 
 
This clinical study will also ascertain satisfaction or preference with subjective attributes, such as 
comfort, vision or lens handling. Responses to these subjective questionnaires will not be 
considered as Adverse Events. 
8.2 Procedures for Adverse Events 
Treatment of an adverse event will depend on its nature and severity. Based on the clinical judgment 
of the investigator the subject may be referred to an ophthalmologist for treatment. The investigator 
will attempt to determine whether the reaction is related to the test device or a result of other factors. 
An Adverse Event Form will be completed for each adverse event. If both eyes are involved, a 
separate Adverse Event Form will be completed for each eye. Whenever possible, the adverse 
event will be photo-documented. 
Expenses incurred for medical treatment as part of study participation will be paid by the sponsor 
(bills and prescription receipts kept). The subject must be followed until resolution and a written 
report completed indicating the subsequent treatment and resolution of the condition. 
 
8.3 Reporting Adverse Events 
All potential Serious and Unanticipated Adverse Device Effects that are related or possibly related 
to subject participation will be reported to the Principal Investigator and the sponsor within 24 hours

of the investigator becoming aware of the event. The Principal Investigator will report the event to 
the IRB as soon as possible (by fax, mail/delivery, phone, or email).  All fatal or life threatening 
events will be reported immediately to the IRB. 
Significant and Non-Significant Adverse Events will be reported to the sponsor as soon as possible, 
but no later than 5 working days after the occurrence.

8.4 Discontinuation from the Study  
A subject’s study participation may be discontinued at any time if, in the opinion of the sponsor or 
the investigator, it is in the best interest of the subject. All discontinuations will be fully documented 
on the appropriate study forms and the Discontinuation Form will be completed. 
9 Device Malfunctions 
A device malfunction means the failure of the device to meet its performance specification or 
otherwise perform as intended. Any defective lens that is likely to cause or contribute to a Serious 
Adverse Event should be reported to the Principal Investigator and the sponsor within 24 hours of 
the investigator becoming aware of the malfunction. 
 
Other defective lenses should be reported to the Sponsor as soon as possible. 
 
This clinical study will also ascertain satisfaction or preference with subjective attributes such as 
comfort, vision, or lens handling. Responses to these subjective questionnaires will not be 
considered as complaints or Device Malfunctions.

10 Statistical Analysis  
10.1 Statistical Plan 
Summary statistics will be produced (e.g. mean, standard deviation). Paired t test will be used to 
compare slit lamp biomicroscopy, lens fit and subjective scores between study lens types.  Repeated 
Measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) or paired analysis will be used to compare the variables 
between study visits. The critical alpha level for statistical significance will be set at p ≤ 0.05, with 
adjustment for multiple comparisons. 
 
All participants who were evaluated will be used in the analysis. In the event of missing data, 
individual data points will be excluded in the analysis and not extrapolated from the collected data. 
11 Data Quality Assurance 
11.1  Study monitoring 
Site qualification of the investigative site has been completed to ensure that the site facility is 
adequate, personnel are qualified and resources are satisfactory to conduct clinical studies for the 
sponsor. The protocol will be reviewed by the investigators prior to enrollment of the first subject. 
This will involve an overview of the protocol, which includes information on study objectives, 
inclusion and exclusion criteria, study visits and adverse event reporting. Data collection forms will 
also be reviewed and this will provide an opportunity to discuss any questions.  
During the course of the study, verification will be conducted to confirm that written informed consent 
was obtained prior to each subject’s participation in the study using the IRB approved ICF.

Prior to final data freeze, a close-out visit/discussion may be warranted to check for accuracy and 
completeness of records. The sponsor or sponsor’s representatives will be authorized to gain 
access to the source documentation for the purposes of monitoring and auditing the study. 
 
11.2 Record keeping 
Detailed records of all study visits will be made using the Case Report Forms (CRFs). All data 
recorded on forms will be in ink. Any corrections to the forms will be initialed and dated at the time 
they are modified. 
 
11.3 Record retention 
Following study completion, data will be available in electronic and/or paper format for audit, sponsor 
use, or subsequent analysis. The original clinical raw data (including completed CRFs and Informed 
Consent forms) will be retained according to guidelines set forth in the general work agreement with 
the site. The Sponsor will be notified and consulted if ever the files are to be destroyed.  In the event 
that this implementation document is indicated for design verification and validation purposes, as 
indicated on the title page, all original raw data forms and completed CRFs will be forwarded to the 
sponsor at completion of the final report. 
11.4 Data Entry / Data Management 
Data will be entered into an electronic spreadsheet. Study staff will only be able to modify the data 
file via password entry. The investigators will be responsible for the data integrity, and complete 
data entry for each visit. The investigator will send the data collected to the study sponsor within 
approximately 5 business days after the last subject completes the final visit.
