44th Annual J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference summary
8 Jul, 2026Key product and clinical development updates
DURAVYU, a sustained-release TKI for retinal diseases, is in phase III trials for wet AMD and DME, with top-line data for wet AMD expected mid-2026 and DME trial initiation in Q1 2026.
The proprietary Durasert delivery system enables ≥6 months of drug durability, multi-mechanism action (VEGF, PDGF, IL-6 inhibition), and room temperature storage.
Phase II and III trials have shown non-inferiority to Eylea, significant reduction in treatment burden, and robust safety with no serious adverse events in over 190 patients.
The bioerodible insert delivers 94% drug content, achieves therapeutic levels within hours, and requires no cold storage.
Pipeline includes EYP-2301, a TIE-2 agonist, advancing alongside DURAVYU.
Market landscape and adoption
Current market leaders VABYSMO and high-dose Eylea address only part of the need; many patients still require monthly injections, highlighting demand for more durable therapies.
DURAVYU offers a new paradigm with multi-mechanism action and potential for combination therapy, not just as an anti-VEGF alternative.
Physician adoption is expected to be aided by the desire to reduce injection frequency and the flexibility to use DURAVYU alongside existing treatments.
Market penetration is expected to be strong, especially among younger retina specialists seeking workflow improvements.
DURAVYU is positioned to capture meaningful share in the $15B anti-VEGF market, with a best-in-class profile and first-mover advantage in key indications.
Regulatory and commercial outlook
Phase III trials for wet AMD and DME are fully enrolled, with rapid recruitment and alignment with FDA and EMA standards.
Top-line data from the LUGANO and LUCIA trials will be announced separately, with NDA submission targeted within six months of database lock.
Ongoing safety monitoring by an independent DMC has found no protocol changes necessary, supporting trial integrity.
Cash reserves and investments of approximately $300 million fund operations through Q4 2027, including all ongoing phase III trials and commercial supply buildout.
Commercial manufacturing capacity is in place with a new 41,000 sq ft facility in Northbridge, MA, built to FDA and EMA standards and preparing for pre-approval inspection and large-scale production.
