Announces FDA Acceptance of IND for MicroLine for Presbyopia, Clearing Path to Initiate Phase 3 VISION Trial by Year End
YORK- December 3, 2020-- Eyenovia, Inc., (NASDAQ: EYEN), a clinical stage ophthalmic biopharmaceutical company developing
a pipeline of microdose array print (MAP ) therapeutics, today announced that the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
has accepted its Investigational New Drug (IND) application for MicroLine, a proprietary pilocarpine formulation for the improvement
in near vision in patients with presbyopia. The Company intends to initiate the Phase 3 VISION program, beginning with the VISION-1
study later this month.
the age-related hardening of the lens causing blurred near vision, affects approximately 113 million Americans. Vision impairment
typically begins after age 40 and is often corrected with eyeglasses, contact lenses or surgery. Because many individuals with
presbyopia have otherwise normal vision, presbyopia has been shown to have a negative impact on quality of life and wearing glasses
is often the first outward sign of aging.
is Eyenovia's proprietary presbyopia formulation of pilocarpine. Pilocarpine is a well-characterized drug in ophthalmology,
with many studies demonstrating its ability to increase the eye's depth of focus to counter the age-related loss
of accommodative effect and improve near vision. The use of pilocarpine for presbyopia as an eye drop may be limited due to the
potential for dose-related side effects as well as the inconvenience and inconsistency of dosing with traditional eye droppers.
Eyenovia's MicroLine is a proprietary microdosed formulation of pilocarpine that is delivered via the Company's Optejet
dispenser. High precision microdosing at approximately 1/5th the drug volume of a traditional eye dropper with the
Optejet is designed to deliver targeted, consistent doses more conveniently than typical eyedroppers.
"We prioritized the development
of MicroLine because of the significant unmet need we see in presbyopia, and because we believe MicroLine can address many shortcomings
of current treatment options by delivering a microdose of pilocarpine via our proprietary Optejet dispenser," said Dr.
Sean Ianchulev, Chief Executive officer and Chief Medical Officer of Eyenovia. "We are on track to initiate the VISION-1
Phase 3 trial by year end, subject to any impacts of COVID-19. We believe the VISION studies could confirm that our approach to
presbyopia is a well-tolerated, effective, on-demand complement to reading glasses for those situations when wearing glasses is
The VISION trials are Phase 3, doubled-masked,
placebo-controlled, cross-over superiority trials that will enroll participants between the ages of 40 and 60 with presbyopia.
The primary endpoint is binocular distance corrected near visual acuity. MicroLine is intended for the "on demand"
symptomatic treatment of near vision impairment secondary to presbyopia.
