About PALADIN
The PALADIN study was a phase 4, open-label, prospective, observational study conducted over 36 months at 41 sites across the United States. This study was designed and developed to confirm the benefit of using a prior course of corticosteroid as indicated in the ILUVIEN U.S. label, to mitigate the risk of uncontrolled IOP elevation. Researchers enrolled 202 eyes in 159 patients with DME who had previously received corticosteroid treatment without a clinically significant rise in IOP. All eyes were treated with ILUVIEN and patients were followed for up to 36 months. Additionally, secondary outcomes confirmed improvement in vision and reduction in treatment burden and retinal thickness variability.

About IRISS
The IRISS study was a phase 4 study designed to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of the fluocinolone acetonide (FAc) implant in all indications in real-world practices in Europe. Six-hundred-and-ninety-five eyes from 556 patients were treated with the FAc implant. Patients receiving FAc implants between 2013 and 2017 were included and monitored until the last patient reached ≥3 years of follow-up. Study included data collected prospectively and retrospectively (51.6% and 48.4%, respectively). Other outcomes included mean intraocular pressure data over time, IOP events, use of IOP-lowering therapy, mean change in visual acuity, and supplemental therapy use among others.
