About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Non-infectious Uveitis

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Key Eligibility Criteria:

  1. Subject must be 18 years of age or older.
  2. Subject must have a diagnosis of chronic non-infectious uveitis of any anatomic subtype (anterior, intermediate, posterior or panuveitis).
  3. Subject must have a history of chronic or recurrent non-infectious uveitis requiring or having required treatment with corticosteroids (systemic, periocular or intraocular) and/or systemic immunosuppressive medication(s) in the 12 months prior to the screening visit.
  4. Best corrected visual acuity of

    • Study Part I: ≥ 5 and < 67 ETDRS letters in the study eye (equivalent to less than or equal to 20/50 but better than or equal to 20/800 Snellen).
    • Study Part II: ≥ 5 and < 77 ETDRS letters in the study eye (equivalent to less than or equal to 20/32 but better than or equal to 20/800 Snellen).
  5. At the screening and baseline visits subject must have active chronic non-infectious uveitis as evidenced by at least one or more of the following in the study eye:

    • Active retinal vasculitis (retinal vascular leakage) involving the posterior pole confirmed by the reading center.
    • Vitreous haze grade ≥ 2+ (SUN classification).
    • Anterior chamber cell grade ≥ 2+ (SUN classification); anterior chamber cells must be present for subjects with a diagnosis of chronic anterior non-infectious uveitis.
    • Persistent macular edema (defined as central retinal thickness (CRT) > 300 microns or > 320 microns using Zeiss Cirrus and Topcon or Heidelberg Spectralis spectral domain ocular coherence tomography (SD-OCT) instruments, respectively) despite treatment with corticosteroids and/or immunosuppressive therapy for at least 4 weeks prior to screening.
  6. Subject receiving concomitant topical and/or systemic corticosteroids or allowed systemic immunosuppressive medications must have maintained the same treatment regimen (dosage/frequency) for at least 2 weeks prior to the baseline (V1) visit, (if applicable).

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Experimental

Arm Label

Treatment Arm A (Re-administration)

Treatment Arm B (Single administration)

Arm Description

Two administrations of EYS606 (135μg pEYS606/90 μL). The frequency between the two administrations will be determined by the DSMB upon completion of the Part I safety cohorts.

One administration of EYS606 (135μg pEYS606/90 μL) at the baseline visit (V1).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Time to rescue therapy between the two EYS606 treatment regimens
Assessment of efficacy measured as time to rescue therapy required after treatment with EYS606

Secondary Outcome Measures

Proportion (%) of subjects responded to the treatment
Measured as an improvement in anterior cell grade and vitreous haze grade according to the SUN scale, retinal vessel leakage using fluorescein angiography, central retinal thickness using ocular coherence tomography, and an increase in visual acuity using EDTRS compared to baseline
Proportion (%) of subjects achieving and maintaining active chronic noninfectious posterior uveitis (CNIU)
Measured as an improvement in anterior cell grade and vitreous haze grade according to the SUN scale, retinal vessel leakage using fluorescein angiography, central retinal thickness using ocular coherence tomography, and an increase in visual acuity using EDTRS compared to baseline
Median time to control of active CNIU
Measured as an improvement in anterior cell grade and vitreous haze grade according to the SUN scale, retinal vessel leakage using fluorescein angiography, and central retinal thickness using ocular coherence tomography
Median time to loss of treatment effect
Measured as an worsening in anterior cell grade and vitreous haze grade according to the SUN scale, retinal vessel leakage using fluorescein angiography, central retinal thickness using ocular coherence tomography, decrease in visual acuity using EDTRS, and any increase in the frequency of dose of specified concomitant medications
Median change in visual acuity
Measured in change from baseline in best-corrected visual acuity using EDTRS

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two different treatment regimens of EYS606.
Detailed Description
This is a Phase 2, multi-center, randomized open-label interventional study of EYS606 in subjects with active chronic non-infectious uveitis. The maximum study duration per patient is 51 Weeks (including an up to 3 week screening period + 48 weeks follow-up after treatment). The study will be conducted in 2 parts. Part I is a safety cohort phase that will enroll up to 6 subjects, Part II is the randomized comparison phase that will enroll up to an additional 50 subjects.
