Brief Summary

This is a Phase III study to assess the efficacy and safety of DE-109 440 µg every 2 months in subjects with active, non-infectious uveitis of the posterior segment of the eye (NIU-PS).

There is a 6-month, single-arm, open-label period after completion of the 6-month double- masked, controlled period allows the evaluation of the efficacy and safety of intravitreal injection of DE-109 440 µg every 2 months for longer duration than appropriate for a placebo or sham control.

Open-label:DE-109 Injectable SolutionDE-109 Intravitreal Injections (Open Label)Subjects completing the Month 6 pre-dose evaluations (the final evaluations in the double-masked period) began the open-label period of the study, in which all subjects received intravitreal injection of DE-109 440 μg in the study eye(s) every 2 months for an additional 6 months of dosing.
Test Arm: DE-109 Injectable SolutionDE-109 Intravitreal InjectionsIntravitreal injection of DE-109 440 µg in the study eye(s) every 2 months (Day 1, Month 2, and Month 4).
Control Arm: Sham ProcedureSham ProcedureSham procedure administered to the study eye(s) every 2 months (Day 1, Month 2, and Month 4). The sham procedure mimics an intravitreal injection without penetrating the eye.
Dummy Arm: DE-109 Injectable SolutionDE-109 Intravitreal InjectionsDummy Arm: Intravitreal injection of DE-109 at an undisclosed, fixed dose (within the range of 44 µg to 880 µg) in the study eye(s) every 2 months (Day 1, Month 2, and Month 4).
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Vitreous Haze (VH) of Zero Response at Month 5Month 5

Vitreous Haze (VH) was assessed during slit-lamp biomicroscopy and scored using the modified Standardized Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) scale as follows:

* Score = 0: No inflammation

* Score = 0.5+: Trace inflammation (slight blurring if the optic disc margins and/or loss of nerve fiber layer reflex)

* Score = 1+: Mild blurring of the retinal vessels and optic nerve

* Score = 1.5+: Optic nerve had and posterior retina view obstruction greater than 1+ but less than 2+

* Score = 2+: Moderate blurring of the optic nerve head

* Score = 3+: Marked blurring of the optic nerve head

* Score = 4+: Optic nerve head not visible

VH 0 response (resolution of inflammation) is defined as a VH score of 0 in the study eye at a specified follow up visit based on the modified SUN scale.

The response as a percentage is calculated as the proportion of study eyes which achieved a VH score of zero at Month 5

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Composite Score at Month 3 and Month 5Month 3, Month 5

Composite score scale is defined as follows. Each study eye was assigned one of the following scores:

* Score = 3 if a study eye achieved Vitreous Haze (VH) score of 0 at the specified visit without taking any rescue therapies that could affect VH score prior to the specified visit.

* Score = 2 if a study eye had at least improved (decreased) by 2 units (i.e., 2+ to 0, 3+ to 1+, or 4+ to 2+) in VH (compared to baseline) at the specified visit without taking any rescue therapies that could affect VH score prior to the specified visit.

* Score = 1 if a study eye achieved VH score of 0.5+ at the specified visit without taking any rescue therapies that could affect VH score prior to the specified visit.

* Score = -1 if a study eye got rescued due to worsening of uveitis or discontinued from the study due to lack of efficacy or due to adverse event prior to the specified visit.

* Score = 0 if otherwise

Vitreous Haze (VH) of Zero Response at Month 3Month 3

Vitreous Haze (VH) was assessed during slit-lamp biomicroscopy and scored using the modified Standardized Uveitis Nomenclature (SUN) scale as follows:

* Score = 0: No inflammation

* Score = 0.5+: Trace inflammation (slight blurring if the optic disc margins and/or loss of nerve fiber layer reflex)

* Score = 1+: Mild blurring of the retinal vessels and optic nerve

* Score = 1.5+: Optic nerve had and posterior retina view obstruction greater than 1+ but less than 2+

* Score = 2+: Moderate blurring of the optic nerve head

* Score = 3+: Marked blurring of the optic nerve head

* Score = 4+: Optic nerve head not visible

VH 0 response (resolution of inflammation) is defined as a VH score of 0 in the study eye at a specified follow up visit based on the modified SUN scale.

The response as a percentage is calculated as the proportion of study eyes which achieved a VH score of zero at Month 3.
