OKYO Pharma reported new findings from an exploratory analysis of patient-reported outcomes in its completed Phase 2a randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled trial of urcosimod 0.05% for neuropathic corneal pain. The quality-of-life data will be presented in the future at the ARVO 2026 Annual Meeting. In the intent-to-treat population, patients received urcosimod (n=6) or placebo (n=6) for 12 weeks. Reported mean change from baseline included “enjoying life/relationships” of −4.5 with urcosimod versus 0 with placebo on a 0–10 scale. The company also said the Phase 2a results included pain reductions measured by the visual analogue scale and exploratory signals related to corneal nerve structure.
