EyePoint's Drug for Age-Related Eye Disease Fails Late-Stage Trial, Shares Tank 70%
EyePoint said nine Durayvu patients with unrelated vision loss skewed results, even as the drug showed favorable safety and let 75% avoid extra injections for about eight months.
EyePoint's experimental drug Duravyu failed a late-stage trial for a serious eye disease. The company's shares dropped significantly after the disappointing trial results were announced. This failure impacts EyePoint's goal to compete with Regeneron's successful Eylea treatment. Analysts suggest investors will await further study confirmation for the drug's viability. EyePoint plans a new trial and FDA submission for approval in 2027.
