Frequently asked questions about EGP-437 with EyeGate II System

What is EGP-437 with EyeGate II System used for?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System is an investigational small molecule being developed for the treatment of Dry Eye Syndrome. It is administered via iontophoresis using the EyeGate II System to deliver dexamethasone phosphate. The drug is currently in clinical development and has not been approved by regulatory authorities.

What does EGP-437 with EyeGate II System target?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System delivers dexamethasone phosphate, a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the eye. The EyeGate II System uses iontophoresis, a technology that uses a mild electrical current to enhance drug delivery into ocular tissues. This mechanism is being studied for its potential to treat Dry Eye Syndrome.

Who makes EGP-437 with EyeGate II System?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System is being developed by Kiora Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker symbol KPRX. The company is conducting clinical research to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this investigational therapy for Dry Eye Syndrome.

What phase is EGP-437 with EyeGate II System in?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System is in Phase 2 clinical development. It is an investigational drug, meaning it has not been approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies. The Phase 2 trial has been completed, and the drug remains under investigation for the treatment of Dry Eye Syndrome.

What clinical trials is EGP-437 with EyeGate II System in?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System has been studied in one completed Phase 2 clinical trial, identified as NCT00765804. This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study enrolled 89 participants with Dry Eye Syndrome in the United States. The trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of iontophoresis with dexamethasone phosphate for treating dry eye.

Is EGP-437 with EyeGate II System the same as dexamethasone phosphate?

EGP-437 with EyeGate II System is a combination product that includes dexamethasone phosphate, a corticosteroid, delivered through the EyeGate II System. While dexamethasone phosphate is the active pharmaceutical ingredient, EGP-437 with EyeGate II System refers to the specific investigational product being developed by Kiora Pharmaceuticals for Dry Eye Syndrome.
