R&D Highlights
- In July 2021, the Company reported positive 30-day safety results for all cohorts from the DAVIO trial of EYP-1901 for wet-AMD. The DAVIO clinical trial of EYP-1901 enrolled 17 wet AMD patients across three dose cohorts. Key safety observations through at least 30-Day post-dosing follow-up for all patients include no serious adverse events (SAEs), ocular or systemic, no reported adverse events (AEs) related to significant intraocular inflammation, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) reduction, or elevation of intraocular pressure, and no events of endophthalmitis, retinal detachment, or migration into the anterior chamber.
- In May 2021, the Company completed patient enrollment of its Phase 1 clinical trial of EYP-1901 as a potential twice-yearly sustained delivery anti-VEGF treatment targeting wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD). The ongoing Phase 1 DAVIO trial for EYP-1901 is an open-label twelve-month dose escalation trial examining wet AMD patients who were responsive to previous anti-VEGF therapies. The primary endpoint of the trial is safety and key secondary endpoints are changes in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and central subfield thickness.
- DEXYCU was presented in three separate oral presentations, one poster session and a video symposium at the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS) Annual Meeting.
Corporate Update
- In August 2021, the Company announced the establishment of its Executive Scientific Advisory Board with prestigious members made up of some of the leading retinal surgeons in the world and chaired by Dr. Carl Regillo MD, FACS, Chief of the Retina Service at Wills Eye Hospital.

The draft rules are subject to a public comment period prior to the issuance of the final HOPPS rules, anticipated in November 2021. If granted, the pass-through reimbursement period for DEXYCU will extend to December 31, 2022.
