Aerie ha fatto +75% con dei dati sul suo prodotto nettamente inferiori rispetto al nostro Vesneo; addirittura non è migliore rispetto al paragone Timolol.
Sono sempre più convinto che qualcuno rema contro la Nicox
On September 16th, Aerie Pharmaceuticals reported positive Rhopressa™ Phase 3 efficacy results in Rocket 2, their second Phase 3 trial, which are counter to the results previously demonstrated in Rocket 1. After Rocket 1 missed its primary endpoint of non-inferiority to timolol, Aerie reevaluated the entry criteria and determined that a change in the baseline range of IOP would allow them to meet the primary endpoint in their following studies. The FDA agreed to allow a change to the entry criteria and primary endpoint for the subsequent Phase 3b study, Rocket 2 to include patients with a baseline IOP of >20mmHg and <25mmHG. In addition to the Rocket 2 study, Aerie plans to initiate a 3rd Phase 3 study, Rocket 4, in 3Q2015 in order to further bolster their results.
Unlike with Vesneo, Rhopressa has thus far not demonstrated superiority vs. timolol or latanoprost in any clinical trial.
A summary of the clinical trials results for both Vesneo and Rhopressa can be found below.
