EyePoint Pharmaceuticals (EYPT) said Thursday that an independent safety committee recommended that late-stage trials of its experimental drug, Duravyu, for wet age-related macular degeneration continue without changes after completing a scheduled safety review.
The company said interim masked safety data continued to show a favorable safety profile for the drug, consistent with results seen in more than 190 patients across four completed studies.
The trials are comparing Duravyu, administered every six months, with aflibercept in more than 900 patients with the condition to demonstrate that it is not inferior to aflibercept in preserving vision at Weeks 52 and 56, the company added.
