OKYO Pharma: Announces Phase 2 Trial of OK-101 Drug to Treat Dry Eye Disease is now listed on the ClinicalTrials.gov Public Website.
London and New York, NY, March 16, 2023 – OKYO Pharma Limited (LSE: OKYO; NASDAQ: OKYO), an ophthalmology-focused bio-pharmaceutical company which is developing OK-101 to treat dry eye disease (DED) to address the significant unmet need in this multi-billion-dollar market, today announced that its planned trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of OK-101 in subjects with DED has been posted on the ClinicalTrials.gov public website (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05759208). ClinicalTrials.gov is a Web-based resource that provides patients, their family members, health care professionals, researchers, and the public with easy access to information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies on a wide range of diseases and conditions.
OKYO is presently in the process of activating those clinical sites planned for the trial, and preparing the clinical trial drug product OK-101 for shipment to those sites involved in the double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, along with other activities needed for initiating the trial. OKYO is now anticipating the first-patient first-visit initiation of the trial in early Q2 2023 and still looking to release top-line data from this trial in Q4 2023.
“We are excited to be very close now to moving this drug into its first clinical trial and believe that OK-101 can provide a new way to treat DED patients who are presently not well-served by currently approved drugs” said Gary S. Jacob, Ph.D., CEO of OKYO Pharma Ltd.
