 three- and two-lines or greater improvement, respectively.

In the description of the results of our clinical trials herein, p or p-values represent the probability that random chance caused the result (e.g., p<0.0001 means that there is less than a 0.01% probability that the difference between the vehicle and the treatment groups is due to random chance). A p-value ≤ 0.05 is a commonly used criterion for statistical significance and is usually considered supportive of a finding of efficacy by regulatory authorities.

Our other product candidate LNZ101 showed similar results, including achieving primary and secondary endpoints in both CLARITY 1 and 2, but did not show superiority to LNZ100.

LNZ100: Vehicle-controlled CLARITY 2 Efficacy Results

LNZ100 showed rapid onset with response rates of 71% (p<0.0001), at 30 minutes post-treatment, the earliest timepoint measured, and LNZ100 maintained statistical significance of three-lines or greater improvement in near visual acuity compared to vehicle for all timepoints measured. At 10 hours post-treatment, the last measured timepoint, 40% (p<0.0001) of users dosed with LNZ100 maintained a three-lines or greater improvement in near visual acuity compared with 5% of users dosed with vehicle.

LNZ100 also achieved the pre-specified secondary endpoint of two-lines or greater improvement in BCDVA at near without losing one or more lines in distance visual acuity at three hours post-treatment, with a response rate of 91% (p<0.0001) compared to 24% for vehicle. LNZ100 also showed rapid onset with response rates of 91% (p<0.0001) compared to 22% for vehicle at 30 minutes post-treatment, the earliest timepoint measured, and maintained statistical significance of two-lines or greater improvement in near visual acuity compared to vehicle for all timepoints measured. At 10 hours post-treatment, the last measured timepoint, 69% (p<0.0001) of users dosed with LNZ100 maintained a two-lines or greater improvement, compared to 21% of users dosed with vehicle. Standard clinical practice considers two-lines or greater improvement in near visual acuity to be clinically meaningful.
