Novagali: Phase III

[wetEyes]

I just came back from a 15 hour journey to visit a German dry eye expert for the second time. He said that he is one of those who are conducting the European Phase III trials for Novagali, a novel cationic emulsion formulation of cyclosporine.

He said that the results so far have been very good and despite the fact that the study is double-blind, he can tell from looking at the corneas which patient gets Novagali and which gets the placebo.

This is encouraging.

here is a link I found to the published completion of Phase II:

Could you please give me the name/emal/ location of the doctor you are visiting?

You got an e-mail. The way he described the results so far, it is more powerful than Restasis. This means it will most likely pass Phase III and hit the market in 2010 or 2011.

That's good news.

Hopefully its sooner, rather than later. That's inspiring to hear.
