“We are presenting two posters and a paper at this year’s
Presentations at AAO:
-
Safety and Biological Activity of Intravitreal OTX-TKI Implant in Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration (nAMD) – Phase 1 Study. D Boyer
Interim data from the Phase 1 study continues to demonstrate that OTX-TKI has been generally well tolerated with a favorable safety profile. Evidence of biological activity is demonstrated across the three dose groups as measured by a decrease in subretinal and/or intraretinal fluid. Durability has been seen up to 11 months in one subject without the need to rescue.
-
Magnitude of Cumulative Drug Effect and Time to Resolution with an Intracanalicular Dexamethasone Insert (0.4 mg) in Pooled Phase 3 Studies. F Mah
Data being presented continues to support DEXTENZA’s rapid and consistent efficacy in the treatment of post-cataract inflammation and pain.
-
Real World Patient Experience with Dropless Steroid Therapy using a Novel Hydrogel Based Intracanalicular Dexamethasone (0.4 mg) Insert. P Majmudar
Data from this Phase 4 real world, clinical trial demonstrates subjects undergoing cataract surgery reported high satisfaction and preference for DEXTENZA over topical drops, irrespective of administration in the operating room or outpatient clinical setting. Data collected outside conventional randomized clinical trials provides insights into adapting a novel sustained release steroid therapy into routine clinical practice.
In addition, two posters will be presented on DEXTENZA from two of the investigator-initiated trials.
