USA-based ophthalmic diseases specialist EyePoint Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq: EYPT) saw its shares leap as much as 212% yesterday, after it announced positive top-line results of its Phase II DAVIO 2 trial of EYP-1901.

EYP-1901 is an investigational sustained delivery maintenance treatment for wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) combining vorolanib, a selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor with bioerodible Durasert E.

EyePoint noted that the trial met its primary endpoint with both EYP-1901 doses demonstrating statistical non-inferiority change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) compared to aflibercept control and a favorable safety profile with no EYP-1901-related ocular or systemic serious adverse events (SAEs).
