## IX. SUMMARY OF NONCLINICAL STUDIES
### A. Laboratory Studies
#### 1. Biocompatibility
Non-clinical biocompatibility testing was conducted in accordance with FDA’s Premarket Notification 510(k) Guidance Document for Daily Wear Contact Lenses, May 1994 and GLP regulation (21 CFR part 58) and applicable standards. The Applicant also determined that given the cumulative exposure from repeated use of the extended wear contact lenses, the permanent/long-term patient contact categorization would apply. Therefore, the Applicant performed a number of in
PMA P220007: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
{4}
vitro and in vivo biocompatibility studies to support the safety of the subject final finished sterilized device serafilcon A contact lenses considering this permanent/long-term patient contact categorization.
Endpoints addressed according to the May 1994 Guidance referenced above include cytotoxicity, acute ocular irritation, guinea pig maximization skin sensitization, acute systemic toxicity, and -ocular irritation due to repeated wear of contact lenses (rabbit contact lens wear studies). In addition, the Applicant elected to perform additional endpoint testing not specified in the May 1994 Guidance, including genotoxicity testing (bacterial and chromosomal), as well as performing cytotoxicity testing by multiple different test methods to evaluate the lenses or lens extracts. In addition, the Applicant performed several different rabbit contact lens wear studies with different contact lens care products used for cleaning/disinfection, as well as different lens wearing paradigms, considering that the subject device is an extended wear contact lens.
The Applicant performed biocompatibility testing on the final finished sterilized contact lens and the primary packaging solution itself.
The Applicant also provided sufficient information/justification to support that historical biocompatibility testing on primary packaging (blister shell and foil lidding) would be applicable to the subject device, since the subject device uses the same primary packaging that is also used by the referenced US marketed Alcon soft contact lenses.
The non-clinical testing performed includes the following referenced biocompatibility standards: ISO 10993-5:2009, ISO 10993-10:2010, ISO 10993-11:2017, ISO 9394:2012, ISO 18189:2016, ISO 10993-3:2014.
## All test results met the pre-established acceptance criteria.
The testing performed on the Precision7™ (serafilcon A) extended wear soft contact lenses demonstrates that the lens is safe.

# 3. Sterilization, Bioburden, and Shelf Life
Finished contact lenses in buffered saline are provided sterile and individually packaged in sealed blister packs (blister shell and lidding). The packaged lenses are steam sterilized in a validated autoclave. Blister pack containers are labeled with variable information such as the lens parameters, lot number, and product expiration date. The expiration date has been established through stability studies that have assessed the chemical and physical stability of the lens and package integrity.
Routine bioburden testing is performed prior to sterilization every week during lens production. This testing provides an assessment of the cleanliness of the devices being manufactured and the facility in general. The bioburden test method was validated in accordance with ISO Standard 11737-1:2006, "Sterilization of health care products – Microbiological methods – Part 1: Determination of the population of microorganisms on product."
The contact lenses are terminally sterilized by subjecting the finished device to moist heat sterilization. The moist heat sterilization cycle was validated using the overkill method (partial cycle approach) in accordance with Annex D of ISO Standard 17665-1:2006, "Sterilization of health care products – Moist heat – Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation and routine control of sterilization process for medical devices." The sterilization process for the device was validated to achieve a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of $10^{-6}$.
Shelf-life studies have been conducted to verify that the packaging for the subject contact lenses maintains a sterile barrier and adequately protects the device through the expiration date on the package label, which is 7 years from the date of sterilization. Shelf-life testing has also been conducted to verify that device physical and optical properties satisfy the requirements of the engineering drawings and product specification document through the 7-year labeled expiration date. All test samples satisfied all acceptance criteria (see Table 4).

# X. SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDY
The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the Alcon Precision7™ (serafilcon A) soft contact lenses when worn for up to 7 days of extended wear for the optical correction of refractive ammetropia and presbyopia in persons with non-diseased eyes in the US under IDE #G190046. Data from this clinical study were the basis for the PMA approval decision. A summary of the clinical study is presented below.
## A. Study Design
Patients were treated between October 11, 2019 and March 26, 2021. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through March 26, 2021 and included 608 enrolled patients (1216 eyes). There were 35 primary cohort investigational sites. Among those patients enrolled, 27 subjects (54 eyes) were screen failures, and 581 subjects (1162 eyes) were dispensed study lenses.
The study was a prospective, multi-center, parallel group, randomized, stratified (by corneal curvature radius), double-blinded, 12-month clinical study. Subjects were randomized in 1:1 ratio to one of the two study groups. There were 290 subjects (580 eyes) randomized to the Alcon serafilcon A investigational group and 291 subjects (582 eyes) to the CooperVision® Biofinity® (comfilcon A) control group. Both test and control lenses were replaced weekly, after each week of extended wear, throughout the duration of study participation. For the purposes of this study, extended wear meant that lenses were to be applied and worn around the clock, including during sleep. Weekly extended wear meant at the end of any six (6) consecutive nights of extended wear, the subject had to remove the lens for one night prior to beginning a new cycle of lens wear.
The primary safety endpoint was the proportion of ocular serious and significant non-serious adverse device effects (ADEs). The primary safety analysis was based on noninferiority, with a predefined margin of 0.05. The null hypothesis stated that the difference in this proportion between serafilcon A lens group and comfilcon A lens group (serafilcon A minus comfilcon A) was 0.05 (5%) or more. The alternative hypothesis stated that the difference in this proportion was less than 0.05. Therefore, rejection of the null hypothesis supports noninferiority of serafilcon A compared to comfilcon A. A generalized linear model with a logit link function was used, and a one-sided 95% upper confidence limit (UCL) was calculated for the difference in proportions between two lens groups.
The primary effectiveness endpoint was high contrast distance visual acuity (VA) with study lenses, obtained at the Screening/Dispensing Visit, and at each of the follow-up visits. Scores were recorded as the number of letters correctly identified in the eye examination. VA was converted to the Log10 of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR). Counts and percentages on the Snellen categories were displayed, and descriptive statistics (number of observations, mean, standard
PMA P220007: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
{14}
deviation, median, minimum, and maximum) for the converted logMAR values were provided for each lens group, at each scheduled visit and all unscheduled visits combined.
For all remaining endpoints collected, continuous data were summarized using descriptive statistics: n, mean, median, standard deviation (SD), minimum, and maximum. Categorical data were presented by the total counts for each category and corresponding percentages.
Sample size calculation was based on the primary safety endpoint. Assuming that the expected difference between serafilcon A and comfilcon A was 0 and that the proportion in comfilcon A was 0.045, a sample size of 213 per group provided 80% power to reject the null hypothesis of inferiority in serafilcon A compared to comfilcon A, with a noninferiority margin of 0.05 (5%). Taking into consideration the long exposure/study duration of 12 months, a total of 568 subjects were planned to be randomized (284 test and 284 control) to compensate for approximately 25% drop-out rate.
Alcon representatives monitored all study site locations to assess the data, quality, and study integrity in a manner consistent with applicable health authority regulations and the procedures adopted by Alcon. Monitoring visits and telephone consultations occurred as necessary, or per the monitoring plan, to verify that the rights and well-being of subjects were protected, the conduct of the investigation was in compliance with the currently approved protocol, the integrity of the data was maintained, the facilities remained acceptable, and test article accountability was ensured.
The control group was an active control; the control treatment, CooperVision® Biofinity® (comfilcon A) Contact Lenses, is a legally marketed alternative with similar indications for use.
1. Clinical Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria
Enrollment in the study was limited to patients who met the following key inclusion criteria: at least 18 years of age as of the date of initial evaluation, required lens powers between requiring contact lens sphere power from +0.50 to +4.00 diopters sphere or -0.50 to -6.00 diopters sphere, with at least one eye requiring contact lens sphere power greater than or equal to ±1 diopters sphere with no more than 0.75D diopters of refractive astigmatism and were willing to wear lenses in both eyes, and were correctable to visual acuities of at least 20/25 in each eye with spectacles, and as specified otherwise in the study protocol.
Patients were not permitted to enroll in the study if they met any of the following key exclusion criteria: if they had participated in a clinical trial within the previous 30 days or were participating at the time of this study, had previous refractive surgery or current or previous orthokeratology treatment, had clinically significant (grade 3 or 4) anterior segment abnormalities or any infection of the eye, had ocular or systemic disease or need for medication

which might interfere with contact lens wear, or had slit lamp findings that would contraindicate contact lens wear, or were pregnant or breast feeding, or were monovision contact lens wearers, and as specified in the study protocol.
## 2. Follow-up Schedule
All patients were scheduled to return for follow-up examinations at baseline/dispense, 24 hours, 1 week, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months during the study.
All subjects were evaluated at Baseline/Dispense and followed up according to the visit schedule below (Table 6).
Table 6: Study Visit Schedule
| Visit | Description | Target | Visit Window |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | Baseline/Dispense | Day 1 | N/A |
| 2 | 24-Hour follow-up | Day 2 | ± 4 hours |
| 3 | 1-Week follow-up | Day 7 | ± 2 days |
| 4 | 1-Month follow-up | Day 30 | ± 4 days |
| 5 | 2-Month follow-up | Day 60 | ± 7 days |
| 6 | 3-Month follow-up | Day 90 | ± 7 days |
| 7 | 6-Month follow-up | Day 189 | -7 / + 14 days |
| 8 | 9-Month follow-up | Day 270 | ± 14 days |
| 9 | 12-Month follow-up | Day 365 | ± 14 days |
At the screening/dispensing visit, a slit lamp biomicroscope examination was conducted, a spherocylindrical refraction (and best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BCVA)) was measured, and keratometry was performed. Following the contact lens fitting, symptoms/complaints were assessed, distance high contrast visual acuity was measured, contact lens over-refraction and visual acuity were measured, and lens wettability, deposits, centration and movement were assessed.
Follow-up visits were scheduled for 24 hours, 1 week, and 1-, 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12- months after starting extended wear. At follow-up visits, the slit lamp examination was repeated, high contrast visual acuity, symptoms/complaints, average wear time, keratometry changes, adverse events,

{16}
reasons for discontinuation, lens wettability, deposits and lens fit (movement and centration), lens wear and lens replacement data were assessed. Adverse events and device deficiencies were recorded at all visits.
Contact lenses were replaced weekly. At scheduled visits, randomized subjects were given enough lenses to last until the next study visit, allowing for scheduled and unplanned lens replacements. If a subject visit occurred between any regularly scheduled visits, this visit was documented as an Unscheduled Visit.
The key timepoints are shown below in the tables summarizing safety and effectiveness.
## 3. Clinical Endpoints
With regards to safety, the primary safety endpoint was the proportion of ocular serious and significant non-serious adverse device effects (ADEs) during the study.
Serious adverse events are those events that may result in death, or have potential to cause, either permanent impairment of an ocular function or damage to an ocular structure, and may necessitate medical or surgical intervention.
Serious adverse events may include any hazardous, sight-threatening conditions occurring after exposure to the study lenses, including the following:
- An ocular infection including a presumed infectious ulcer with any of the characteristics including central or paracentral location, penetration of Bowman’s membrane, infiltrates >2 mm diameter, iritis, increase in intraocular pressure, culture positive for microorganisms, increasing size or severity at subsequent visits);
- Any central or paracentral corneal event (such as neovascularization) that results in permanent opacification;
- Hypopyon, hyphema, or neovascularization within the central 6 mm of the cornea;
- Permanent vision loss as defined by loss of 2 or more lines of BCVA from enrollment visit that fails to resolve;
- Uveitis (anterior, intermediate, or posterior);
- Corneal abrasion affecting ≥ 50% of corneal surface area.
A significant nonserious AE was defined as a device-related, non-sight threatening AE that warrants discontinuation of any contact lens wear for greater than or equal to 2 weeks due to
- Peripheral non-progressive non-infectious ulcers;
- All symptomatic corneal infiltrative events;
- Corneal staining score greater than or equal to Grade 3;
PMA P220007: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
17 of 53
{17}
o Temporary vision loss as defined by loss of 2 or more lines of BCVA from enrollment visit that persists for 2 or more weeks;
o Neovascularization score greater than or equal to Grade 2.
The primary safety analysis was to demonstrate that the proportion of serious and significant non-serious adverse device effects in eyes dispensed with the test lens (serafilcon A) was not inferior to the proportion of serious and significant non-serious adverse device effects with the control lens (comfilcon A).
Other safety parameters included protocol-defined adverse events not included in the primary safety analysis (e.g., ocular non-serious non-significant AEs, other SAEs and non-serious AEs determined to be not related to study device), discontinuations, and biomicroscopy findings.
With regards to effectiveness, the primary effectiveness endpoint was high contrast, distance visual acuity (VA) measured with study lenses. No hypothesis testing on the primary effectiveness endpoint was planned.
For the primary and each of the supportive effectiveness endpoints, separate summaries were prepared, when applicable, for the Completed and the Discontinued analysis sets as follows: Completed Control (eyes/subjects), Completed Test (eyes/subjects), Discontinued Control (eyes/subjects), Discontinued Test (eyes/subjects). Safety analyses was conducted using the safety analysis set on a treatment-emergent basis, and effectiveness endpoints were analyzed using the Eligible Dispensed population.
With regards to success/failure criteria, the applicant did not define any specific study success criteria beyond the safety and effectiveness endpoints.
## B. Accountability of PMA Cohort
At the time of database lock, of the 608 subjects enrolled in the PMA study, all data (100%, 608 subjects) were available for analysis at the completion of the study; the 12-month safety and effectiveness data based on enrolled dispensed serve as the basis for approval of the PMA submission.
Of the 608 subjects enrolled, 27 (54 eyes) were ineligible at baseline. Of the 608 enrolled subjects, 581 subjects (1162 eyes) were dispensed lenses in the PMA study, 513 (88.3%) eligible subjects (1,026 eyes) completed the 12-month visit, 68 (11.7%) eligible subjects (136 eyes) were discontinued. Subject accountability is presented in Table 7. Reasons for subject discontinuations is presented in Table 8.

## D. Safety and Effectiveness Results
### 1. Safety Results
The analysis of safety was based on the enrolled dispensed cohort of 581 patients/procedures, etc. available for the 12 month evaluation. The key safety outcomes for this study are presented below in Table 10. Adverse effects are reported in Tables 11 to 14.
The study investigators were required to report all adverse events by diagnosis and by severity. Adverse events were graded as Serious, Significant and Non-Significant based on the definitions provided in the study protocol. The safety analysis was based on the 1162 enrolled dispensed eyes (581 subjects): 580 eyes (290 subjects) in serafilcon A and 582 eyes (291 subjects) in comfilcon A. The key safety outcomes for this study is presented below in Table 10.
### a. Primary safety
The primary safety endpoint was proportion of ocular serious and significant non-serious adverse device effects (ADEs). Noninferiority of test to control for primary safety was met using a predetermined threshold of 0.05 (5.0%).
There were no serious adverse events (SAE) reported for the test group. There were 3 ocular device-related SAEs in the control group in 3 eyes (3 ulcerative keratitis). All three events resolved, and 1 subject discontinued from the study due to the SAE.
Overall, 1.0% (6/580) of the test eyes experienced significant non-serious ADEs during the study, compared to 2.1% (12/582) of the control eyes. In the test group, there were 6 device-related events in 6 eyes (4 corneal infiltrates, 2 ulcerative keratitis). In the control group, there were 12 device-related events in 12 eyes (6 corneal infiltrates, 3 giant papillary conjunctivitis, 3 ulcerative keratitis). The incidence rates of eyes with ocular device-related serious, and significant non-serious adverse events are presented in Table 10.

Percentages calculated as (n/N) * 100
b. Other adverse events (non-primary safety AEs)
The majority of the AEs in the study were assessed as non-serious and non-significant. The overall rate of other ocular AEs were similar between groups. There were a total of 97 ocular adverse events in the test group, of which 35 events (29 eyes) were related to the device (5% of total 580 eyes dispensed). The two most frequently reported device-related AE in the test group were dry eye (8 events) and GPC (6 events). In the control group, there were a total of 102 events, of which 25 events were device-related in 24 eyes (4.1% of total 582 eyes dispensed). Commonly observed related AEs in the control group included corneal infiltrates, corneal edema, and eye irritation (n=3 events each). Table 11 summarizes the outcomes for Other Adverse Events.

High contrast distance best spectacle corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was obtained at the Screening/Dispensing Visit (baseline) and again at the Exit Visit. VA was collected in the Snellen scale and converted to the logMAR scale based on the number of letters correctly identified. An eye was considered to have worsened 2 or more Snellen lines if the difference in logMAR VA ≥ 0.2 (exit BCVA – baseline BCVA). Over All Follow-up Visits, there were no eyes in either group with a 2 or more line decrease in BSCVA from baseline to exit (refer to Table 15).

Symptoms, problems and complaints were noted at each study visit for each eye. Subject responses were binary (absent or present). Each of the symptoms were reported by the subject on their own accord, and responses were reviewed by the investigator during the visit. The proportion of the eyes that reported 'absent' or 'present' for each of the symptoms over the duration of the study was similar between the test and the control groups and is presented in Table 16.

Table 17 summarizes keratometry changes from baseline to Exit Visit for enrolled dispensed eyes. There were 12 eyes (2.2%) in the test group and 15 eyes (2.7%) in the control group with a change in keratometry (absolute value of >1.00 D), of which 16 were a decrease in at least 1 meridian (9 test and 7 control); none was considered clinically significant. For the majority of all eyes with change in keratometry values, the reasons were indicated by the investigator as erroneous measurements, no apparent reason, visits conducted shortly after lens removal, or movement during measurements. No apparent association to the study lens was noted for all except 1 eye in the test group, however, study lens VA for this eye was 20/15 at all visits, and lens fit was optimal at all follow-up visits. No AEs related to keratometry change were reported.

2. Effectiveness Results
The analysis of effectiveness was based on the 581 enrolled, dispensed evaluable patients at the 12-month time point. Key effectiveness outcomes are presented in Tables 20 and 21.
Visual Acuity
The primary effectiveness endpoint was high contrast, distance visual acuity (VA) with dispensed lenses over the 12-month exposure duration. All enrolled dispensed eyes were included in the analysis under the actual treatment received. High contrast distance lens VA was obtained at the Screening/ Dispensing Visit, and at each follow-up visit. Scores were recorded as the numbers of letters correctly identified in the eye examination. VA was converted to the Log10 of the Minimum Angle of Resolution (logMAR) by using the score (number of letters).
Visual acuity (VA) with the study lenses was measured at each Extended Wear Follow-up visits. For completed eyes, the test group proportion of eyes (all follow-up visits combined) achieving Snellen VA of 20/20 or better was 98.1% (3952/4027) versus the proportion of control eyes
PMA P220007: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
{34}
reporting 20/20 or better (99.0% or 3982/4024). Conversely, the proportion of VAs of 20/40 or worse reported over the duration of the extended wear segment of the study were 0.0% for the test and control groups (Table 20).
Overall, the distribution of study lens VA was similar between the test and control eyes. Approximately 99.9% (4247/4253) of enrolled dispensed eyes (completed + discontinued eyes) in the clinical study achieved at least 20/25 with the serafilcon A test contact lens over all follow-up visits.

# Supportive Effectiveness Endpoints
Extended lens wear was reported by subjects using the eDiary. For each week of participation in the study, subjects indicated the number of consecutive nights the lenses were worn during the week. The percentage of diary entries where subjects reported at least six consecutive nights of lens wear per week during the study is shown in Table 23. In the test group, majority of diary entries (91.7%, 19582/21360) indicated that the subjects were able to wear lenses for 6 consecutive nights. Similarly, in the control group, majority of diary entries (92.0%, 20549/22326) indicated that the subjects were able to wear lenses for 6 consecutive nights during the study.

Front surface lens wettability was assessed at the Screening/Dispensing Visit on the newly dispensed lens and at each follow-up visit, using a 5-point scale (0 = a smooth uniformly reflecting surface, 1 = a coarse hazy surface which seems resolved momentarily with each blink and becomes exacerbated with staring, 2 = one stable dry (non-wetting) area of some magnitude, 3 = more than one stable dry (non-wetting) area of some magnitude, 4 = non-wettable lens surface). Over All Follow-up Visits, the majority of eyes (Test 96.5% (558/578 eyes); and Control 96.9% (558/576 eyes) were assessed with Grade 0 or 1 front surface wettability, and frequency of lenses with Grade 2 were similar between groups (Table 24). There were 2 lenses with grade 3 in the test group. Table 24 presents lens wettability over all follow-up visits.

Front surface deposits were assessed at the Screening/Dispensing Visit on the newly dispensed lens and at each follow-up visit, using a 5-point scale (0 = absent, clean surface, 1 = very slight, only visible after tear film drying, 2 = slight, visible deposits easily removable, 3 = moderate, deposits adherent and not removable, 4 = severe, non-removable deposits and comfort affected).
Over All Follow-up Visits, the majority of the test and control lenses were assessed with Grade 0 or 1 front surface deposits (Table 25). Grade 2 or higher front surface deposits were observed at a similar rate between the test and control lenses; a few were assessed higher than Grade 2. One (1) lens in each of the test and control group was assessed with Grade 4 deposits.

Back surface deposits were assessed at the Screening/Dispensing Visit on the newly dispensed lens and at each follow-up visit, using a 5-point scale (0 = absent, clean surface, 1 = very slight, 3 spots or less of moving particles, 2 = slight, up to 10 spots of moving particles, 3 = moderate, 3 or less non-moving deposits adherent to lens, 4 = severe, 4 or more deposits adherent to the lens and/or corneal indentation). Over All Follow-up Visits, the majority of the test and control lenses in the enrolled dispensed eyes were assessed with Grade 0 or 1 back surface deposits (Table 26). The rates of lenses with Grade 2 or 3 assessments were low across the study visits in both groups (2.1% test (12/578), 3.1% control (18/576)).

Contact lens subjective performance was assessed at each scheduled visit for a number of attributes (insertion comfort, insertion handling, overall vision, overall comfort, and removal handling), using a 1 (least favorable outcome) to 10 (most favorable outcome) point scale questionnaire. In the completed eyes, the mean subjective acceptance ratings were similar between the test and control lenses, with ratings $\geq 8.5$ for each of the attributes assessed at the majority of scheduled study visits. In Discontinued eyes, there were no clinically relevant differences in mean subject acceptance ratings between test and control lenses.
## Supplemental Clinical Information
The pivotal study protocol (under IDE G190046) also included a separate cohort of Asian patients, to assess in this cohort, the safety and performance of the serafilcon A test lens when worn in an extended wear modality (i.e., up to 6 nights of continuous wear) as compared to comfilcon A control lenses. A total of 67 patients were enrolled at 7 investigative sites in the US.

Of the 67 enrolled patients, 64 eligible patients were randomized and exposed to study lenses, of which 58 patients completed the study, and were evaluable. Twenty-nine (58 eyes) patients in each group completed the 12-month study. Lenses were replaced on a weekly basis. Data tables summarizing demographics and key safety data pertinent to Asian subjects from the 7 sites are presented in Table 29 and Table 30. Overall mean age of subjects was 33.3 years, with $32.8\%$ (21/64) male and $67.2\%$ (43/64) female participants. Subjects self-identified predominantly as Asian Chinese and Not Hispanic or Latino ethnicity $(100\%, 64/64)$ .

Primary effectiveness results indicated that for distance visual acuity, all eyes, whether with serafilcon A test or comfilcon A control lens, achieved VA of 20/25 or better throughout the duration of the study, and both lens groups performed similarly with respect to study lens VA.
For the primary safety endpoint, there were no reports of ocular serious, and significant non-serious adverse device effects in this cohort, for either lens group. There was 1 device-related non-serious non-significant AE (punctate keratitis) in the test group and no events in the control group (Table 30). There were no ocular Treatment-Emergent adverse events in the di…
