**Exhibit 99.1**![LOGO](g65451dsp05.jpg)

**EyePoint Announces Positive Recommendation from Independent Data Safety Monitoring** 

**Committee for Pivotal Phase 3 Trials for DURAVYU<sup>™</sup> in Wet Age-Related Macular Degeneration** 

*– No changes in protocol recommended for LUGANO and LUCIA clinical trials –* 

*– Masked safety data continues to show no safety signals, consistent with previous clinical trials for DURAVYU –* 

*– On track to report topline 56-week data for LUGANO in mid-2026 with LUCIA data to closely follow –* 

WATERTOWN, Mass., November 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – EyePoint Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: EYPT), a company committed to developing and commercializing innovative therapeutics to improve the lives of patients with serious retinal diseases, today announced that the independent Data Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) completed its second scheduled review of the Company's ongoing pivotal Phase 3 program evaluating DURAVYU for the treatment of wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD). As of the September 29, 2025 data cutoff for the DSMC review, all patients across the LUGANO and LUCIA trials reached the Week 8 visit during which patients in the DURAVYU arms received their initial DURAVYU dose, and approximately 25% of those patients received their second planned dose of DURAVYU at Week 32.

The DSMC recommended that both the LUGANO and LUCIA trials continue as planned, with no modifications to the protocol. The DSMC is an independent panel of experts in ophthalmology and biostatistics who are responsible for reviewing safety data to ensure the welfare of trial participants and to provide recommendations regarding trial conduct. DSMC meetings are scheduled to occur every six months per the trial protocol.

"We are pleased to receive our second consecutive positive recommendation from the DSMC for our pivotal wet AMD program. Now that all patients are past initial dosing and a growing number have received redosing, this recommendation strengthens our confidence in DURAVYU's consistent, favorable safety profile observed across its robust development history," said Ramiro Ribeiro, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at EyePoint. "As we advance toward topline data starting in mid-2026, we remain focused on continued clinical trial execution and regulatory preparedness to support our ultimate goal of delivering DURAVYU to patients as expeditiously as possible."

LUGANO and LUCIA are randomized, double-masked, aflibercept controlled, non-inferiority Phase 3 trials assessing the efficacy and safety of DURAVYU in patients with active wet AMD including both treatment naïve and treatment experienced patients. Enrollment is complete in both trials with over 900 patients enrolled. At Day 1, patients are randomized 1:1 to receive either DURAVYU 2.7mg every six months or aflibercept on-label as control. The LUGANO and LUCIA trials are the only sustained release wet AMD pivotal Phase 3 trials evaluating 6-month redosing in both trials over two years. DURAVYU is delivered via a standard intravitreal injection in the physician's office, similar to current practice with FDA approved anti-VEGF treatments. The primary endpoint of the Phase 3 pivotal trials is non-inferiority in the average change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) at weeks 52 and 56 compared to baseline. Secondary endpoints include safety, reduction in treatment burden, percentage of eyes free of supplemental aflibercept injections, and anatomical results as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT). More information about the trial is available at <u>www.clinicaltrials.gov</u> (LUGANO identifier: NCT06668064; LUCIA identifier: NCT06683742).

**About Wet AMD** 

Wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss and irreversible blindness in people over the age of fifty. Wet AMD is an advanced form of AMD that develops when abnormal blood vessels grow under the macular retina, leaking blood and/or fluid, and leading to potentially severe vision loss. Wet AMD is a lifelong disease that requires continuous treatment so that patients may maintain visual function. Although multiple treatments are now available, challenges still exist as the current standard-of-care is dosed on average every two months in the United States under a treat-and-extend protocol, and these large molecule anti-VEGF treatments only target one pathology of the disease. This lifetime of frequent treatment represents a tremendous burden for patients, physicians, and the health care system, potentially leading to patient noncompliance and further vision loss.

**About DURAVYU<sup>™</sup>** 

DURAVYU<sup>™</sup> (vorolanib intravitreal insert), is being developed as a potential sustained-delivery treatment for patients suffering from serious retinal diseases. DURAVYU is a solid bioerodible insert designed to release a constant therapeutic dose for at least six months and is administered via a routine intravitreal injection with a sterile, prefilled syringe injector. DURAVYU combines vorolanib in next-generation Durasert E<sup>™</sup> technology: Durasert E is EyePoint's proprietary and best-in-class bioerodible matrix designed to provide sustained release of drug without free-floating drug particles.

Vorolanib is a differentiated and patent-protected tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and is the most studied TKI in retinal disease, with no ocular safety signals noted in four prior trials. Vorolanib features a novel multi-mechanism of action as it targets both VEGF-mediated vascular permeability and IL-6 mediated inflammation through inhibition of all VEGF and JAK1 receptors. Vorolanib demonstrated neuroprotection in an in vivo model of retinal detachment and inhibits PDGF, which may bring antifibrotic benefits.

DURAVYU has safety and efficacy data across approximately 140 wet age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema patients from both Phase 1 and 2 trials that demonstrate stability in vision and anatomical control. Data from the DAVIO 2 Phase 2 trial in wet AMD demonstrated an impressive 88% reduction in treatment burden six months after treatment with DURAVYU, with over 80% of patients supplement-free or receiving only one supplemental anti-VEGF injection. No safety signals have been observed in 190+ patients across four completed clinical trials, including three Phase 2 trials.

The wet AMD Phase 3 pivotal program (LUGANO and LUCIA) is evaluating every six-month dosing of DURAVYU, potentially providing a flexible label for physicians. The Phase 3 pivotal program follows a well-established regulatory approval pathway with a patient-centric non-inferiority design comparing DURAVYU to on-label standard of care to inform real-word treatment practices.

DURAVYU is also being advanced for the treatment of DME with first patient dosing in Phase 3 trials (COMO and CAPRI) expected in the first quarter of 2026. The Phase 2 VERONA trial in DME met primary and secondary endpoints and demonstrated a rapid and sustained improvement in vision and anatomy, and a continued favorable safety and tolerability profile with superior dosing intervals to standard of care.
