"RegeneRx Biopharmaceuticals, Inc. announced today the publication of the first human data from a case study of patients evaluated with its ophthalmic product candidate RGN-259.
"The data have been published in the May 2010 issue of Archives of Ophthalmology, an American Medical Association peer-reviewed journal. In one case, a patient had a non-healing wound for nearly 14 months. The patients were treated for 28 days with RGN-259 and evaluated 28 days after treatment. Three of the patients experienced complete healing of their wounds, with substantial healing in the fourth patient. There were no drug-related adverse events and all patients reported reduced ocular irritation."
"Dr. Dunn and his colleagues are planning a Phase 2 study with RGN-259 in patients with dry eye associated with graft vs. host disease later this year that will be supported, in part, by RegeneRx."
