STUDY DESIGN:  This study will consist of 2 parts:  Part 1 is an open-label, sequential dose escalation part to 
determine the DLT of TLC399 (ProDex) in patients with macular edema due to central retinal vein occlusion 
(CRVO) or branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).  Part 2 is an open-label, single-arm design to investigate the 
use of TLC399 (ProDex) in patients with macular edema due to CRVO or BRVO in one dose level selected 
from Part 1. In Part 2, the enrollment of subjects for analysis will include approximately 20 patients in total,
inclusive of Part 1 and Part 2 for the selected dose group.
Part 1
About 6 to 24 patients will be enrolled after fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria to enter this part of 
the study.  The screening period will last for up to 14 days.
Part 1 is 3+3 design. At first, 3 evaluable patients will be enrolled in Group 1 and administered a single 
intravitreal injection of TLC399 (ProDex), i.e., 0.36 mg dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) with 100 mM 
phospholipid (PL) (30 μL) on Day 0. During the trial conduct, a lower dose Group R1 was included based on 
Safety Monitoring Committee’s recommendation. The study dose levels for escalation are shown below: 
x
Group R1: 0.24 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (20 μL)
x
Group 1:  0.36 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (30 μL)
x
Group 2:  0.6 mg DSP with 100 mM PL (50 μL)
x
Group 3:  0.6 mg DSP with 50 mM PL (50 μL)
After the intravitreal injection, each patient will be observed for 4 weeks for DLTs.  If none of the first 3

evaluable patients experiences a DLT, then dose escalation will proceed to the next dose cohort. If 1 of 3 
evaluable patients develops DLT(s), the cohort will be expanded to a maximum of 6 evaluable patients (another 
3 patients added subsequently), or amend study design according to SMC’s recommendation.  If exactly 1 of 
the 6 evaluable patients experiences DLT(s), then escalation to the next dose level will occur.  If RU
patients develops DLT(s), the dose will not keep escalating and have to de- escalate to previous cohort to reach 
the maximum of 6 patients (unless previous cohort has reached 6 patients). The safety results should be 
evaluated by Safety Monitor Committee (SMC) regularly every 6 months and after last patient of each cohort 
completes DLT observation period. The SMC would advise or give permission for further dose escalation, de-
escalation, or any study design adjustment. 
Patient enrollment in other groups will follow in a similar manner as Group 1. ,IRUSDWLHQWVGHYHORS
DLT in the R1 group during the conduct of Part 1, the study will be terminated. The MTD must be confirmed 
with 6 patients.
After the study drug administration, these patients will continue to be evaluated for efficacy and safety 
outcomes up to a period of 12 months unless the patient is withdrawn or discontinues the study.
In the concurrent Phase IIa (NCT03093701) trial conducted in the United States, the dose levels tested 
represent the dose Group 1~3 of this Phase I/II trial, and the subjects randomized outnumbered the patients to 
be enrolled in the current study without DLT observed. Based on the safety data of the five evaluable subjects 
assigned in the dose Group R1 and 1, the Safety Monitoring Committee approved the sponsor’s proposal to 
further evaluate the dose Group R1 with expansion in Part 2, without MTD determination. Pending 
implementation of this amendment, further subjects will be recruited into Group R1; these subjects will be 
included in the Part 2 of the study for analysis.
Part 2
In Part 2, the dose level of Group R1 is selected for safety/efficacy evaluation with further recruitment up to a 
total of 20 subjects for analysis, inclusive of the patients of Group R1 in Part 1 and 2. The safety and efficacy 
outcomes will be assessed for up to 12 months (Table 2).  
Parts 1 and 2
The Investigator will select 1 eye per patient to be the study eye. If both eyes are eligible for the study, the 
eligible eye with the shorter disease duration (macular edema) will be selected as the study eye.
During the study period, other treatment modalities for RVO treatment including laser photocoagulation, 
intravitreal or periocular steroid injection, or intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] are 
prohibited except condition is compatible with rescue therapy or obtained approval from sponsor. Any patient 
experiencing a worsening of disease (ie, worsening of macular edema secondary to RVO) in the study eye 
beginning 12 weeks post-injection as judged by the Investigator, defined by a:

In principle, the sponsor will reimburse the use of a single administration of rescue medication.
The patient receiving rescue treatments per protocol definition or prohibit treatment would stay in the study for 
safety follow-up and is not required to be discontinued from the study.  Their efficacy and safety outcomes 
before receiving prohibited treatment/ rescue therapy will be included in the efficacy and safety analyses, 
respectively.  The data after receiving prohibited or rescue treatment/medications will be separately presented.

EVALUATION CRITERIA:
Determination of Maximum Tolerated Dose and Dose Limiting Toxicities
Maximum Tolerated Dose: The MTD will be defined either as the dose that was one level below the dose 
FRKRUWZKLFKHOLFLWHGD'/7LQDWOHDVWSDWLHQWVRUDVWKHKLJKHVWGRVHFRKRUWZLWK'/7V'XULQJWKH
dose escalation period, only the subjects receiving the correct dose administration are considered evaluable and 
will be include in DLT analysis. The MTD must be confirmed with 6 patients.
Dose Limiting Toxicities: The DLT determination will be made by the following criteria:
Ophthalmic DLTs:
Ocular AEs by standard clinical ophthalmic examination, visual acuity changes from 
BCVA (chart ETDRS) at baseline, slit-lamp biomicroscopy (SLB), indirect ophthalmoscopy/fundus 
photography, FA, and OCT central macular thickness.  The acute ophthalmologic toxicities which constitute a 
DLT are any occurrence of the following at the study eye and is considered related to the study drug within 4  
weeks post injection:
•
Clinically significant examination that is severe (obscuring visualization of the retinal vasculature) 
and vision threatening
•
Other ocular abnormalities not usually seen in patients with RVO, such as (but not limited to) acute 
retinal detachment or endophthalmitis
•
BCVA:  Significant acute reduction in visual acuity – ORVVRI(7'56OLQHV-letter) within the 
first 7 days that persist until Day 14, with the exception that in the opinion of the Investigator the reduction in 
visual acuity is due to the dispersion of the drug in the vitreous cavity.
•
Tonometry: Increase from baseline IOP by 25 mm Hg on 2 consecutive separate examinations at least 
1 day apart or sustained pressure of 30 mm Hg for more than a week, despite pharmacologic intervention; 
Goldmann tonometer will be used for all IOP measurements 
Systemic DLTs:
These include Grade 3 (severe) events, such as hospitalization of the patient or an event that results in 
significant or persistent deficiency or inability, or Grade 4 (life-threatening) toxicities or any significant severe 
toxicity deemed related to the study drug by the Investigator

Efficacy:
BCVA: BCVA will be used to assess primary as well as secondary endpoints.  BCVA will be assessed in Parts
1 and 2 of the study.
BCVA testing will be performed using the ETDRS chart – 3 ETDRS visual acuity charts each with a different 
letter sequence (ETDRS visual acuity charts R, 1, and 2) will be employed for standardized measurement of 
visual acuity at each of the participating sites.  Visual acuity will be measured using letters only.  Both eyes 
will be tested at each study visit - the right eye will always be tested with Chart 1 and the left eye with Chart 2.
OCT Scan: OCT will be used to assess 1 of the secondary endpoints, i.e., to evaluate the mean change from 
baseline of the central retinal thickness at the scheduled visits.  Spectral/Fourier domain OCT will be used 
throughout the study at the participating sites.  All OCT examinations at the same site should be performed by 
the same type of machine.  OCT scans will be obtained after dilating the study eye in all enrolled patients at the 
time points specified in the protocol. In patient of significant IOP elevation, OCT for neural fiber layer is 
recommended.  
Safety:
Safety will be assessed based on physical examination, vital signs (BP and pulse), clinical laboratory results 
(routine hematology and chemistry), and AEs. Safety parameters will also include BCVA measurements, IOP 
measurements, SLB, indirect ophthalmology, fundus photography, OCT scan at neural fiber layer, visual field 
and FA evaluations.
DURATION OF THE STUDY:  The entire duration of the study will be about 12.5 months for patients 
enrolled in both parts of the study.  Patient enrollment is expected to be 14 days prior to the single intravitreal 
injection of TLC399 (ProDex) on Day 0 for both parts.  For patients in Part 1, after the 4-week observational 
period for DLTs, the patients will be followed for an 11-month evaluation period.  For patients in Part 2, 
patients will be evaluated for safety and efficacy for a period of 12 months after the single intravitreal injection 
of TLC399 (ProDex). For patient have unresolved vitreous opacity or still need IOP lowering medication at 
D360 visit, it is suggested following-up patient safety every 3 months after D360 visit until total recovery, 
stable or investigator deems not necessary.
Screening Period:  14 days
Treatment Period:  Single day (Day 0)
Observation Period for DLTs:  4 weeks for patients in Part 1 only.
Follow-up Period:  11 months for patients in Part 1 (after DLT observation period) and 12 months for patients 
in Part 2.
PLANNED STUDY DATES:
First patient first visit: August 2014
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS:
Sample size determination
The primary objective for Part 1 of the study is to determine the DLTs of TLC399 (ProDex).  The conventional 
3+3 design will be used; no formal sample size calculations have been performed.  About 6 to 24 patients who 
have macular edema due to CRVO or BRVO are planned to be enrolled for the sequential dose escalation Part 
1 of the study. 
No formal sample size calculation will be performed for open-label, single-arm, single-dose Part 2 of the study.  
In Part 2, eligible subjects will be recruited in dose Group R1 only and approximately 20 patients (inclusive of 
the Group R1 subjects from Part 1) will be included for analysis in Part 2.
Efficacy Analysis 
The efficacy analysis will be descriptively summarized with the ITT and PP analysis population. For Part 1 of 
the study, the efficacy analysis will be presented by treatment group. Data in Part 2 will be combined with the 
data at the same dose level in Part 1 for efficacy analysis. Missing data (including those due to early 
discontinuations) will not be imputed. Subgroup analyses will be performed for the efficacy assessment by
RVO type in Part 2.
Patients receiving prohibited or rescue treatment will be included in efficacy analysis. All BCVA and CST data

after the administration of rescue therapy will be replaced with the last observation prior to the start of rescue 
therapy. If there is no other major protocol deviation, these patients will not be excluded from PP population 
due to receiving prohibited or rescue treatment.
Safety Analysis
The safety data analysis will be descriptively summarized with the safety population.  For Part 1 of the study, 
the safety analysis will be presented by treatment group. Data in Part 2 will be combined with the data at the 
same dose level in Part 1 for safety analysis. Missing data (including those due to early discontinuations) will 
not be imputed.  
Frequency distribution and individual listings of all DLTs and AEs will be generated. Safety data including 
physical examination, vital signs, clinical laboratory data, BCVA assessments, IOP assessments, SLB, indirect 
ophthalmology, and fundus photography evaluations will be descriptively summarized.
