A Safety and Efficacy Study of NS2 in Patients With Anterior Uveitis

March 1, 2023 updated by: Aldeyra Therapeutics, Inc.

A Phase 2 Randomized, Investigator-Masked, Comparator-controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of NS2 Eye Drops in Patients With Anterior Uveitis

This is a randomized, multi-center, investigator masked, comparator controlled study. The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of NS2 in patients with non-infectious acute anterior uveitis. Subjects will be randomized 1:1:1 to receive multiple doses of NS2 0.5%, NS2 0.5% and Pred Forte® 1%, or Pred Forte® 1%.

Free aldehydes are thought to be related to inflammatory diseases such as uveitis. NS2, a small molecule aldehyde trap, may decrease inflammation by lowering aldehyde levels.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Anterior Chamber Cell Grade at Week 8
Time Frame: The efficacy assessment period was assessed at Week 8; baseline was Day 1.
Change from baseline comparison of NS2 ophthalmic drops (0.5%), NS2 (0.5%) and Pred Forte® (0.1%) ophthalmic drops, and Pred Forte® (1%) ophthalmic drops on an anterior chamber cell grade scale of 0 to 4 (0 = absent, 4 = severe). The least squares mean (standard error) was derived from analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with baseline as a covariate and treatment group as a factor.
The efficacy assessment period was assessed at Week 8; baseline was Day 1.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of subjects with treatment emergent adverse events as a measure of safety and tolerability
Time Frame: Day 1, Day 4, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 9
Change from baseline in the number of treatment emergent adverse events.
Day 1, Day 4, Week 1, Week 2, Week 4, Week 8, Week 9
