Frequently asked questions about OTX-DP

What is OTX-DP?

OTX-DP is an investigational small molecule product developed by Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. for ocular inflammation and pain. It combines dexamethasone with a punctum plug, a device placed in the tear duct to deliver the drug. It has been studied in a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients undergoing cataract surgery.

What is OTX-DP used for?

OTX-DP is being developed for the treatment of ocular inflammation and pain, including inflammation and pain following cataract surgery.

What phase is OTX-DP in?

OTX-DP is in Phase 2 development. One Phase 2 trial has been completed, and no trials are currently active. The completed study was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 60 patients with ocular inflammation and pain after cataract surgery in the United States.

What clinical trials is OTX-DP in?

OTX-DP has been studied in one completed Phase 2 trial, NCT01666210, titled a Phase II Study Evaluating Safety/Efficacy of OTX-DP for Treatment of Ocular Inflammation and Pain After Cataract Surgery. It enrolled 60 patients aged 21 and older in the United States and was randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled.

Is OTX-DP the same as dexamethasone punctum plug?
