REDEFINING DEVELOPMENT

Our complementary wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and diabetic retinopathy (DR) registrational trials

Superiority study comparing a single AXPAXLI™ (also known as OTX-TKI), an investigational axitinib hydrogel administered by intravitreal injection, dose to a single aflibercept (2mg) dose at Week 36

Design:
Two-arm trial with ~300 total subjects randomized 1:1

Primary Endpoint (Week 36):
Demonstrate that a single AXPAXLI dose is superior to a single aflibercept 2mg dose based on proportion of subjects who maintained visual acuity, defined as <15 ETDRS (Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study) letters of BCVA (best-corrected visual acuity) loss from baseline

Non-inferiority study comparing AXPAXLI Q24W to aflibercept (2mg) Q8W at Week 56 

Design:
Three-arm trial with 555 total subjects randomized 2:2:1

Primary Endpoint (Week 56):
Demonstrate that a single AXPAXLI dose is non-inferior to fixed-dose aflibercept 2mg Q8W with respect to mean change from baseline in BCVA (Best-Corrected Visual Acuity) Week 56

Non-inferiority margin for the lower bound is -4.5 letters in BCVA at Week 56 

Open-label extension study designed to evaluate safety and disease-modifying potential of AXPAXLI

Design:
Three-year follow-up with AXPAXLI Q24W to assess long-term outcomes

Key Objectives:
Demonstrate reduction in fibrosis associated with chronic exudation

Explore long-term maintenance of visual acuity

Investigate effects of delaying AXPAXLI treatment

Superiority study comparing a single AXPAXLI, an investigational axitinib hydrogel administered by intravitreal injection, compared to a single ranibizumab (0.3 mg) injection at Week 52

Design:
Study of AXPAXLI in ~432 subjects with moderate to severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) without center-involved (CI) diabetic macular edema (DME) randomized 1:1

Primary Endpoint (Week 52):
Ordinal DRSS 2-step change status at Week 52 from baseline (≥ 2 step improvement, ≥ 2-step worsening, less than 2-step change in either direction)

Superiority study comparing Q6M and Q12M AXPAXLI to sham at Week 52 

Design:
Study of AXPAXLI in ~930 subjects with moderate to severe NPDR without CI-DME randomized 1:1:1

Primary Endpoint (Week 56):
Ordinal DRSS 2-step change status at Week 52 from baseline (≥ 2 step improvement, ≥ 2-step worsening, less than 2-step change in either direction)
