简要总结
The primary objective of this study, in subjects with Neuropathic Corneal Pain, is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OK-101 0.05% and 0.1% as compared to placebo instilled 4 times/day in subjects with neuropathic corneal pain, as assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS).
详细描述
Detailed Description: Neuropathic corneal pain (NCP) is a complex disease affecting the somatosensory nervous system characterized by different underlying etiologies and pathogenesis.
OK-101 is a lipid conjugated chemerin peptide antagonist of the ChemR23 G-protein coupled receptor which is typically found on immune cells of the eye responsible for the inflammatory response. OK-101 has been shown to produce anti-inflammatory and pain-reducing activities in mouse models of dry eye disease and neuropathic corneal pain; and is designed to combat washout through the inclusion of the lipid 'anchor' contained in the candidate drug molecule to enhance the residence time of OK-101 within the ocular environment. Our preclinical studies have shown that treatment with OK-101 abolishes corneal pain in a murine model of NCP.
