Glaukos Received the US FDA’s Approval for iDose TR (travoprost intracameral implant) for Ocular Hypertension (OHT) or Open-Angle Glaucoma (OAG) Patients

Shots:

  • The approval was based on the results from 2 P-III trials incl. (GC-010) & (GC-012) evaluating the safety & efficacy of iDose TR (75 mcg) models with varying travoprost release rates vs topical timolol ophthalmic solution (0.5%, BID) in lowering IOP in patients (n=1,150) suffering from OHT or OAG
  • In both trials, 98% vs 95% of patients continued evaluation, and 81% of iDose TR patients were fully free of topical medicines that lower IOP at 12mos. The approval was also supported by the P-IIb study results that depicted a reduction in topical IOP-lowering for up to 36mos.
  • Glaukos expects to initiate the commercial launch activities for iDose TR by Q1’24 & has established a wholesale acquisition cost of $13,950/dose or implant
