General Statistical Methods and Types of Analyses 
Analysis Populations 
• 
Intent-to-Treat Population – The intent-to-treat (ITT) population includes all randomized subjects. 
Efficacy analyses will be performed on the ITT population with observed data only. The ITT 
population may also be analyzed using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) imputation 
method and multiple imputation to assess sensitivity. Subjects in the ITT population will be 
analyzed as randomized. 
• 
Per Protocol Population – The per protocol (PP) population includes subjects in the ITT population 
who do not have significant protocol deviations and who complete the study. Protocol deviations 
will be assessed prior to database lock and unmasking. The PP population will be analyzed using 
observed data only for efficacy variables. Subjects in the PP population will be analyzed as treated. 
• 
Safety Population – The safety population includes all randomized subjects who have received at 
least one dose of the investigational product. The safety population will be analyzed for all safety 
assessments. Subjects in the Safety population will be analyzed as treated.  
Unit of Analysis 
Safety endpoints will be analyzed for both eyes. For efficacy endpoints, the unit of analysis will be the 
study eye, or the “worst eye,” as defined by the following: 
Study Eye: Eyes are eligible for analysis if they meet all of the inclusion criteria. In the case that both eyes 
are eligible for analysis, the study eye will be the eye with the worst (higher) total corneal fluorescein 
staining, based on the sum of the inferior, superior, and central regions, at baseline (Visit 2) pre-CAE. If the 
total corneal staining is the same in both eyes, then the right eye will be selected as the study eye. 
Sample Size 
Approximately 80 subjects will be screened to enroll 40 subjects (20 subjects in each group). This is a 
Phase 2 study for which no formal sample size calculation has been performed. The sample size chosen was 
not based on statistical considerations, but is based on historical experience. 
Multiplicity Considerations 
As this is an exploratory study with no primary or secondary endpoints, there will be no multiplicity 
adjustments and all analyses are considered hypothesis-generating.  
Efficacy Endpoints Analysis 
The method of analysis for efficacy endpoints will be based on the distribution of the individual variable for 
analysis. Variables recorded on a continuous scale will be analyzed at each visit using two-sample t-tests 
and Wilcoxon rank sum tests. Each visit and treatment group will be summarized using descriptive statistics 
for the ITT population with observed data only. Changes from baseline will be summarized by visit and 
treatment using descriptive statistics and analyzed by visit using ANCOVA models with baseline value and 
treatment group, two sample t-tests and Wilcoxon rank sum tests on the ITT population with observed data 
only. 
For multinomial outcome variables, a generalized linear model will be used, and the distribution will be 
specified as multinomial. 
The ITT population will be analyzed using LOCF imputation for the primary efficacy analysis. For 
sensitivity analyses on the primary and key secondary endpoints, observed data will be used on the ITT and 
PP population, and multiple imputation will be used on the ITT population. Further details will be included 
in the statistical analysis plan (SAP). Analyses using ANCOVA or generalized linear models including data 
from both regions will include a fixed effect of region. 
 
Safety Analyses 
Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) 
dictionary. Frequencies and percentages will be provided per treatment group of subjects with treatment-
emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious TEAEs, and TEAEs causing premature discontinuation will be 
provided by treatment group. An adverse event is treatment emergent if it occurs or worsens after the first 
dose of randomized study treatment. Furthermore, frequencies will be given of subjects with TEAEs by 
system organ class and preferred term, by system organ class, preferred term and maximal severity, by 
system organ class, preferred term for treatment-related adverse events (AEs), by system organ class and 
preferred term for serious adverse events (SAEs); and by system organ class, preferred term, and day of 
onset. Separate analyses will be performed for ocular and non-ocular adverse events. 
The incidence of patients who experience a TEAE of interest over the 12-week post-treatment observation 
period will be compared between the IC265 and placebo groups. A generalized linear model will be used.

The incidence of patients who experience a composite of one or more MedDRA preferred terms of interest 
over the 12-week post-treatment observation period will be compared between the IC265 and placebo 
groups. A generalized linear model will be used, and the distribution will be specified as binomial. 
Other safety endpoints will be summarized by treatment and visit using descriptive statistics. Change or 
shift from baseline will also be summarized where appropriate. For assessments performed by eye, both 
eyes will be summarized separately.

INTRODUCTION 
Dry eye disease (DED) is a prevalent chronic eye condition affecting between 5% and 34% 
of the population worldwide, and approximately 1 million to 4 million Americans between 65 
to 84 years of age (Fiscella 2011, Messmer 2015). This multifactorial disease has 
considerable socio-economic implications, including daily activities, visual function, social 
and physical functioning, workplace productivity, and quality of life (Pflugfelder 2008). 
According to the Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society (TFOS) Dry Eye Workshop (DEWS) 
II, “Dry eye is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of 
homeostasis of the tear film, and accompanied by ocular symptoms, in which tear film 
instability and hyperosmolarity, ocular surface inflammation and damage, and neurosensory 
abnormalities play etiological roles” (Craig, Nichols et al. 2017). Recurrent corneal erosion 
and ocular surface inflammation are often painful and cause visual function impairment, 
significantly reducing the quality of life of patients. 
Treatment approaches vary but generally employ the use of artificial tears to combat dryness 
or target the inflammatory aspect of the disease. While artificial tears often relieve some of 
the symptoms in the short term, many doses are required throughout the day and the 
underlying cause is left untreated. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved 
treatments that focus on inflammation for dry eye disease are 0.05% cyclosporine-A 
ophthalmic emulsion (Restasis®, Allergan), 0.09% cyclosporine ophthalmic solution 
(CEQUATM, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries, Inc), and lifitegrast 5% ophthalmic solution 
(Xiidra®, Shire US, Inc.). 
To target the inflammatory aspect of DED, IACTA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is currently 
developing IC265 ophthalmic solution with drug substance previously known as PRT-2761, a 
potent inhibitor of Syk. PRT-2761 is a small molecule in the pyrimidine carboxamide class 
that functions as a specific inhibitor to spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk). Syk is a non-receptor 
protein tyrosine kinase critical for B-cell activation and development and for signaling 
through the activating class of Fc receptors that are expressed on a wide range of 
hematopoietic cells including mast cells, macrophages, and neutrophils. Upon Fc receptor 
ligation, Syk binds to the di-phosphorylated immunomodulatory tyrosine-based activation 
motif (ITAM) harboring adaptor protein FcRγ, resulting in tyrosine phosphorylation of 
multiple downstream substrates that ultimately regulates cell survival, functional activation, 
differentiation, and clonal expansion (Ulanova, Duta et al. 2005). Syk is critical to the 
regulation of immune cell activation in response to ligation of a variety of receptors, making 
it an intriguing target for the treatment of inflammatory and autoimmune disorders. Inhibitors 
of Syk are currently in development for a number of diseases including heparin-induced 
thrombocytopenia, idiopathic thrombocytopenia, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (Reilly, 
Sinha et al. 2011, Hoellenriegel, Coffey et al. 2012, Markham 2018).  
The non-clinical program for PRT-2761 (drug substance of IC265 ophthalmic solution) 
consisted of: proof-of concept studies in a murine conjunctival allergen challenge (CAC) 
model, non-Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) pharmacokinetic studies in rats and rabbits, 28 
days GLP oral toxicity and toxicokinetic studies in rats, and 28 days GLP ocular toxicity and 
toxicokinetic studies in Dutch Belted rabbits and beagle dogs. No clinical studies for the 
treatment of DED have been conducted with PRT-2761. However, clinical experience and 
safety with PRT-2761 has been demonstrated for the treatment of acute and chronic allergic 
conjunctivitis in a single-center phase 2 study.

(BID) is superior to its vehicle (BID) for the following endpoints of signs and symptoms of 
dry eye, as follows:  
• Fluorescein staining (Ora Calibra scale) at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- 
to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) in the following 
regions: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, conjunctival sum, 
and total eye score 
• Ocular discomfort and dry eye symptoms at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- 
to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) 
• Lissamine green staining (Ora Calibra scale) at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and 
pre- to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) in the 
following regions: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, 
conjunctival sum, and total eye score 
• Tear film break-up time at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), 
and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) 
• Conjunctival Redness at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), and 
5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), and mean change from baseline Visit 
2 (Day 1) pre-CAE to Visit 5 (Day 85) pre-CAE 
• Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) at Visits 3, 4, and 5 
• Schirmer’s test at Visit 3, 4, and 5

4.0 
OVERALL STUDY DESIGN 
This is a Phase 2, single-center, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical 
study. Subjects will be randomized to one of the following treatment arms at Visit 2 (Day 1):  
• IC265 Ophthalmic Solution 1%: 1 drop BID bilaterally (N=~20) 
• Placebo Ophthalmic Solution (Vehicle): 1 drop BID bilaterally (N=~20) 
Approximately 40 subjects will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups (1:1) to 
receive either IC265 Ophthalmic Solution 1% or placebo solution as topical ophthalmic drops 
administered bilaterally BID for 12 weeks. Subjects, Sponsor, Contract Research 
Organization (CRO), and site personnel will be masked to treatment assignment. 
During the 14-day study run-in period prior to randomization, all subjects will receive 
Placebo Ophthalmic Solution (Vehicle) bilaterally BID.  
During the screening period, two 90-minute exposures to the CAE will be conducted to 
ascertain eligibility to enter the study at Visit 1 (Day -14 ± 2) and Visit 2 (Day 1). Subjects 
who qualify after the initial screening visit will enter the run-in phase, where they will self-
administer vehicle BID for approximately 14 days. Those who qualify at Visit 2 (Day 1) will 
be randomized to receive study drug in a double-masked fashion for 84 days. Subjects will

self-administer drops BID and will complete Daily diary symptom score assessments as 
instructed. 
The CAE exposure will occur at Visit 1 (Day -14 ± 2), Visit 2 (Day 1), Visit 3 (Day 15 ± 2), 
Visit 4 (Day 43 ± 2), and Visit 5 (Day 85 ± 4), with Pre-CAE, during CAE and Post-CAE 
assessments of ocular signs and symptoms. Study drug will be discontinued at Visit 5. 
Subjects will exit from the study at this visit.

Subjects as defined by the criteria in Section 5.3 and 5.4 will be considered for entry into this 
study. 
8.1.2 Informed Consent 
Prior to a subject’s participation in the study (i.e., changes in a subject’s medical treatment 
and/or study related procedures), the study will be discussed with each subject, and subjects 
wishing to participate must give written informed consent using an informed consent form. 
The informed consent form must be the most recent version that has received 
approval/favorable review by a properly constituted Institutional Review Board (IRB). 
8.1.3 Washout Intervals 
Prohibited medications, treatments, and activities are outlined in the exclusion criteria 
(Section 5.4) 
8.1.4 Procedures for Final Study Entry 
Subjects must meet all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria (Section 5.3 and 5.4). 
8.1.5 Methods for Assignment to Treatment Groups: 
Before the initiation of study run-in at Visit 1, each subject who provides written informed 
consent will be assigned a screening number. All screening numbers will be assigned in strict 
numerical sequence at a site and no numbers will be skipped or omitted. Each subject who 
meets all the inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria at Visit 1 and Visit 2 will be 
assigned a randomization number at the end of Visit 2. Randomization number will be 
assigned manually and entered in the Screening and Enrollment log or automatically assigned 
using the Interactive Web Response System (IWRS). 
The site staff will dispense kit(s) required until the next visit. Both the randomization number 
and the dispensed study drug kit number(s) will be recorded on the subject’s source document 
and electronic case report form (eCRF). Subjects, Sponsor, CRO, and site personnel will be 
masked to treatment assignment.

measurements. 
8.4.2 Unscheduled Visits 
These visits may be performed in order to ensure subject safety. All procedures performed at 
an unscheduled visit will be recorded in the source documents and on the Unscheduled Visit 
eCRF pages. Any procedure indicated in the eCRF that is not performed should be indicated 
as “Not done.” 
Evaluations that may be conducted at an Unscheduled Visit include: 
• Slit-lamp Biomicroscopy

8.5 
COMPLIANCE WITH PROTOCOL 
Subjects will be instructed on proper use of the subject Daily diary and proper instillation and 
storage of study drug at the end of Visits 1 through 4 and given written instructions. To assess 
dosing and symptom assessment compliance, the subject daily diaries will be collected at 
Visit 2, 3, 4, 5, and the subject’s used and unused study drug ampules will be collected at 
Visit 3, 4, and 5. Dosing compliance will be based on the used and unused ampule count. If 
the subject is less than 80% or more than 125% compliant with dosing based on the expected 
number of used ampules, then the subject will be deemed non-compliant and a dosing 
deviation should be recorded. Subjects will be reinstructed on dosing compliance and this 
will be documented in the source documents. These guidelines will be used by the 
Investigator for determining the subject’s necessary compliance for the study and for 
recording deviations from this compliance. 
A protocol deviation occurs when there is any non-adherence to a study procedure or 
schedule that is specified by the protocol. The term “protocol deviation” includes those 
departures from the protocol previously described by the term “protocol violation”; all 
departures from the protocol are now described as protocol deviations, regardless of the 
potential impact on subject safety. A Protocol Deviation Log shall be maintained by the 
site(s). Protocol deviations will be summarized in the final clinical study report. 
8.6 
SUBJECT DISPOSITION 
8.6.1 Completed Subjects 
A completed subject is one who has not been discontinued from the study. 
8.6.2 Discontinued Subjects 
Subjects may be discontinued prior to their completion of the study due to: 
• subject request/withdrawal 
• AEs 
• protocol violations 
• administrative reasons (e.g., inability to continue, lost to follow up) 
• sponsor termination of study 
Note: In addition, any subject may be discontinued for any sound medical reason. 
Notification of a subject discontinuation and the reason for discontinuation will be made to 
Ora and/or sponsor and will be clearly documented on the eCRF. 
8.7 
STUDY TERMINATION 
The study may be stopped at any time by the investigator, the sponsor, and/or Ora with 
appropriate notification. 
8.8 
STUDY DURATION 
An individual subject’s participation will involve 5 visits over approximately a 14-week 
period (14 days pre-screening, 84 days of treatment).

8.9 
MONITORING AND QUALITY ASSURANCE 
During the course of the study an Ora monitor, or designee, will make routine site visits to 
review protocol compliance, assess IP accountability, and ensure the study is being conducted 
according to the pertinent regulatory requirements. The review of the subjects’ medical 
records will be performed in a manner that adequately maintains subject confidentiality. 
Further details of the study monitoring will be outlined in a monitoring plan. 
Regulatory authorities of domestic and foreign agencies, quality assurance and or its 
designees may carry out on-site inspections and/or audits which may include source data 
checks. Therefore direct access to the original source data will be required for inspections 
and/or audits. All inspections and audits will be carried out giving consideration to data 
protection as well as subject confidentiality to the extent that local, state, and federal laws 
apply. 
9.0 
ADVERSE EVENTS 
9.1 
ADVERSE EVENT (AE) 
An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence associated with the use of an IP in 
humans, whether or not considered IP-related. An AE can be any unfavorable and unintended 
sign (e.g., an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with 
the use of an IP, without any judgment about causality. An AE can arise from any use of the 
IP (e.g., off-label use, use in combination with another drug or medical device) and from any 
route of administration, formulation, or dose, including an overdose. An AE can arise from 
any delivery, implantation, or use of a medical device, including medical device failure, 
subject characteristics that may impact medical device performance (e.g., anatomical 
limitations), and therapeutic parameters (e.g., energy applied, sizing, dose release, and 
anatomic fit) associated with medical device use. 
All AEs spontaneously reported by the subject and/or in response to an open question from 
study personnel or revealed by observation, physical examination or other diagnostic 
procedures will be recorded in the source document and on the appropriate pages of the case 
report form (CRF). Any clinically relevant deterioration in clinical finding is considered an 
AE and must be recorded. When possible, signs and symptoms indicating a common 
underlying pathology should be noted as one comprehensive event. 
Documentation regarding the AE should be made as to the nature, date of onset, end date, 
severity, and relationship to IP, action(s) taken, seriousness, and outcome of any sign or 
symptom observed by the physician or reported by the subject upon indirect questioning. 
Exacerbation of conditions related to the signs and symptoms of DED will not be reported as 
an AE. 
All AEs and their outcomes, regardless of causality or expectedness, must be reported to Ora 
and the Sponsor as required by the IRB/IEC, federal, state, or local regulations and governing 
health authorities and recorded on the appropriate case report form (CRF). Adverse events 
will be collected after the signing of the Informed Consent). 
9.1.1 Severity 
Severity of an AE is defined as a qualitative assessment of the degree of intensity of an AE as 
determined by the Investigator or reported to him/her by the subject. The assessment of 
severity is made irrespective of relationship to IP or seriousness of the event and should be 
evaluated according to the following scale: 


IACTA Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 
 
Protocol 
IC265 Ophthalmic Solution 
 
IND 130141 
Confidential 
 
 
Page 31 
 
• Mild: Event is noticeable to the subject, but is easily tolerated and does not interfere 
with the subject’s daily activities. 
• Moderate: Event is bothersome, possibly requiring additional therapy, and may 
interfere with the subject’s daily activities. 
• Severe: Event is intolerable, necessitates additional therapy or alteration of therapy, 
and interferes with the subject’s daily activities. 
9.1.2 Relationship to Investigational Product 
The Investigator must assess whether they consider an AE to be drug-related. In assessing 
this relationship, the Investigator must use information about the conditions/concurrent 
medication, and chronology of the event relative to drug. The investigator should initially 
classify the relatedness of an AE, but the final classification is subject to the Medical 
Monitor’s determination unless revised by the Sponsor, which has the ultimate responsibility 
for judging relatedness. The relationship of each AE to the IP should be determined by the 
investigator using these explanations: 
• Definitely Related: Relationship exists when the AE follows a reasonable sequence 
from the time of IP administration, follows a known response pattern of the drug 
class, is confirmed by improvement on stopping the IP and no other reasonable cause 
exists. 
• Probably Related: Relationship exists when the AE follows a reasonable sequence 
from the time of IP administration, follows a known response pattern of the drug 
class, is confirmed by improvement on stopping the IP and the suspect IP is the most 
likely of all causes. 
• Possibly Related: Relationship exists when the AE follows a reasonable sequence 
from the time of IP administration, but could also have been produced by the subject’s 
clinical state or by other drugs administered to the subject. 
• Unlikely to be Related: Relationship uncertain to the investigational product. Likely 
to be related to factors other than investigational product, but cannot be ruled out with 
certainty. 
• Not Related: Concurrent illness, concurrent medication, or other known cause is 
clearly responsible for the AE, the administration of the IP and the occurrence of the 
AE are not reasonably related in time, or exposure to IP has not occurred. 
9.2 
SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS 
An AE is considered serious if, in the view of either the Investigator or Sponsor, it results in 
any of the following outcomes: 
• Inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; 
Note: The term “inpatient hospitalization” refers to any inpatient admission (even if 
less than 24 hours), unless the inpatient admission was pre-planned prior to the 
signing of the informed consent. For chronic or long-term inpatients, inpatient 
admission includes transfer within the hospital to an acute/intensive care inpatient 
unit. Inpatient hospitalization does not include: emergency room visits; 
outpatient/same-day/ambulatory procedures; observation/short stay units; 
rehabilitation facilities; hospice facilities; nursing homes; or clinical research/phase 1 
units.

Page 32 
 
Note: The term “prolongation of existing hospitalization” refers to any extension of an 
inpatient hospitalization beyond the stay anticipated or required for the reason for the 
initial admission as determined by the investigator or treating physician. 
• A persistent or significant incapacity or substantial disruption of the ability to conduct 
normal life functions; 
Note: A serious adverse event (SAE) specifically related to visual threat would be 
interpreted as any potential impairment or damage to the subject’s eyes (e.g., 
hemorrhage, retinal detachment, central corneal ulcer or damage to the optic nerve). 
• A congenital anomaly/birth defect 
• Death; 
• Is life-threatening; 
Note: An AE is considered “life-threatening” if, in the view of either the Investigator 
or Sponsor, its occurrence places the subject at immediate risk of death. It does not 
include an AE that, had it occurred in a more severe form, might have caused death. 
• Important medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require 
hospitalization may be considered serious when, based upon appropriate medical 
judgment, they may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or surgical 
intervention to prevent one of the outcomes listed in this definition 
9.2.1 Expectedness 
The expectedness of a SAE should be determined based upon existing safety information 
about the IP using these explanations: 
• Unexpected: An SAE that is not listed in the Investigator’s Brochure (IB) or is not 
listed at the specificity or severity that has been observed. 
• Expected: An SAE that is listed in the Investigational Brochure (IB) at the specificity 
and severity that has been observed. 
• Not applicable: An SAE unrelated to the IP. 
SAEs that are mentioned in the IB as occurring with a class of products or as anticipated from 
the pharmacological/mechanical (or other) properties of the product, but are not specifically 
mentioned as occurring with the particular product under investigation are to be considered 
unexpected. 
9.3 
PROCEDURES FOR REPORTING SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS 
All SAEs and their outcomes, regardless of causality or expectedness, must be reported to 
Ora and the Sponsor as required by the IRB/IEC, federal, state, or local regulations and 
governing health authorities and recorded on the appropriate case report form (CRF). 
Adverse events will be collected after the signing of the Informed Consent). 
9.3.1 Reporting a Serious Unexpected Suspected Adverse Reaction 
All SAEs that are both ‘suspected’ and ‘unexpected’ are to be reported to Ora, the Sponsor, 
and the IRB/IEC and the regulatory authorities as required by the IRB/IEC, federal, state, or 
local regulations and governing health authorities.

9.3.2 Reporting a Serious Adverse Event 
To ensure subject safety, all SAEs, regardless of relationship to the IP, must be immediately 
reported within 24 hours of awareness of the event. All information relevant to the SAE must 
be recorded on the appropriate CRFs. The investigator is obligated to pursue and obtain 
information requested by Ora and/or the sponsor in addition to that information reported on 
the CRF. All subjects experiencing a SAE must be followed up and the outcome reported. 
In the event of a SAE, the investigator must notify Ora and the Sponsor immediately using 
the contact information below; obtain and maintain in his/her files all pertinent medical 
records, information, and medical judgments from colleagues who assisted in the treatment 
and follow-up of the subject; provide Ora and the sponsor with a complete case history, 
which includes a statement as to whether the event was or was not suspected to be related to 
the use of the IP; and inform the IRB of the SAE within their guidelines for reporting SAEs.

PROCEDURES FOR UNMASKING (IF APPLICABLE) 
All subjects, investigators, and study personnel involved with the conduct of the study will be 
masked with regard to treatment assignments. When medically necessary, the investigator 
may need to determine what treatment group has been assigned to a subject. When possible 
(i.e., in non-emergent situations), Ora and/or the study sponsor should be notified before 
unmasking study drug. Ora and/or the study Sponsor must be informed immediately about 
any unmasking event. 
If an investigator identifies a medical need for unmasking the treatment assignment of a 
subject, he/she should contact Ora and/or the medical monitor prior to unmasking the identity 
of the IP, if possible. Ora will ask the site to complete and send them the Unmasking Request 
Form. Ora will notify the Sponsor, and jointly will determine if the unmasking request should 
be granted. They may consult the medical monitor as needed. The result of the request will be 
documented on the Unmasking Request Form. If approval is granted to unmask a subject, 
written permission via the Unmasking Request Form will be provided to the investigator. The 
investigator will unmask the subject using IWRS. The investigator will complete the 
Unmasking Memo form and include it in the subject’s study file and provide a copy for the 
Trial Master File (TMF). For each unmasked request, the reason, date, signature, and name of 
the person who unmasked the subject must be noted in the subject’s study file.  
Unmasked subjects will be discontinued from the study. Unmasked subjects will be followed 
for safety monitoring until resolution of the adverse event or study completion, whichever 
occurs last.

9.5 
TYPE AND DURATION OF THE FOLLOW-UP OF SUBJECTS 
AFTER ADVERSE EVENTS 
The investigator will follow unresolved AEs to resolution or stabilization until the subject is 
lost to follow-up or until the AE is otherwise classified. Resolution means the subject has 
returned to baseline state of health or the Investigator does not expect any further 
improvement or worsening of the AE. If the subject is lost to follow-up, the investigator 
should make reasonable attempts to contact the subject via telephone, post, or certified mail. 
All follow-up will be documented in the subject’s source document. Non-serious AEs 
identified on the last scheduled contact must be recorded on the AE eCRF with the status 
noted.  
If the investigator becomes aware of any new information regarding an existing SAE (i.e., 
resolution, change in condition, or new treatment), a new SAE/Unanticipated Report Form 
must be completed and faxed to Ora within 24 hours of the site’s awareness of the new 
information. The original SAE form is not to be altered. The report should describe whether 
the event has resolved or continues and how the event was treated.

ANALYSIS POPULATIONS 
The following analysis populations will be considered: 
• Intent-to-Treat Population – The intent-to-treat (ITT) population includes all 
randomized subjects. Efficacy analyses will be performed on the ITT population with 
observed data only. The ITT population may also be analyzed using the Last 
Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) imputation method and multiple imputation to 
assess sensitivity. Subjects in the ITT population will be analyzed as randomized. 
• Per Protocol Population – The per protocol (PP) population includes subjects in the 
ITT population who do not have significant protocol deviations and who complete the 
study. Protocol deviations will be assessed prior to database lock and unmasking. The 
PP population will be analyzed using observed data only for efficacy variables. 
Subjects in the PP population will be analyzed as treated. 
• 
Safety Population – The safety population includes all randomized subjects who have 
received at least one dose of the investigational product. The safety population will be 
analyzed for all safety assessments. Subjects in the Safety population will be analyzed 
as treated.  
The statistical analysis of safety data will be performed for the safety population. The 
analysis of efficacy data will be performed for the ITT population and on the PP population 
as sensitivity analyses. 
10.2 
STATISTICAL HYPOTHESES  
This is an exploratory study with no primary or secondary endpoints. The following 
endpoints will be tested in the study eye: 
• Fluorescein staining (Ora Calibra scale) at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- 
to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) in the following 
regions: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, conjunctival sum, 
and total eye score 
• Ocular discomfort and dry eye symptoms at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- 
to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE)

• Lissamine green staining (Ora Calibra scale) at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and 
pre- to post-CAE), and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE) in the 
following regions: central, superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, corneal sum, 
conjunctival sum, and total eye score 
• Tear film break-up time at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), 
and 5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE)  
• Conjunctival Redness at Visits 3, 4 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), and 
5 (pre-CAE, post-CAE, and pre- to post-CAE), and mean change from baseline Visit 
2 (Day 1) pre-CAE to Visit 5 (Day 84) pre-CAE 
• Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) at Visits 3, 4, and 5 (pre-CAE) 
• Schirmer’s test at Visit 3, 4, and 5 
• Ocular discomfort during CAE at Visits 4 and 5 
• Daily diary symptom score 
10.3 
SAMPLE SIZE  
Approximately 80 subjects will be screened to enroll 40 subjects (20 subjects in each group). 
This is a Phase 2 study for which no formal sample size calculation has been performed. The 
sample size chosen was not based on statistical considerations, but is based on historical 
experience. 
10.4 
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS 
10.4.1 General Considerations 
Continuous variables will be summarized descriptively using number of subjects (n), mean, 
standard deviation, median, minimum, and maximum. Categorical variables will be 
summarized using counts and percentages. 
All summaries will be presented by treatment group. Summaries will be provided for 
demographics, baseline medical history, concurrent therapies, and subject disposition. 
For the purpose of summarization, medical history, concurrent therapies, and AEs will be 
coded to Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Authorities (MedDRA) MedDRA and World 
Health Organization (WHO) Drug dictionaries, as appropriate.  
Baseline measures are defined as the last non-missing measure prior to the initiation of 
randomized study treatment, usually at Visit 2. Change from baseline will be calculated as 
follow-up visit value minus baseline value. Treatment comparisons between active and 
vehicle will be calculated as active minus vehicle. 
All analyses will be 2-sided at a significance level of 0.05 unless otherwise specified. For all 
efficacy analyses, 95% confidence intervals on the difference between each dose of IC265 
and vehicle will be provided. 
10.4.2 Unit of Analysis 
Safety endpoints will be analyzed for both eyes. For efficacy endpoints, the unit of analysis 
will be the study eye, or the “worst eye,” as defined by the following: 
Study Eye: Eyes are eligible for analysis if they meet all of the inclusion criteria. In the case 
that both eyes are eligible for analysis, the study eye will be the eye with the worst (higher) 
total corneal fluorescein staining, based on the sum of the inferior, superior, and central

regions, at baseline (Visit 2) pre-CAE. If the total corneal staining is the same in both eyes, 
then the right eye will be selected as the study eye. 
10.4.3 Missing Data  
Missing data will be imputed using Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) on the ITT 
population for primary analyses. 
Sensitivity analyses of the primary analyses and important secondary comparisons will include 
the following in order to provide a robust understanding of the impact of missing and spurious 
data:  
• Using observed data only on the ITT population 
• Using multiple imputation on the ITT population 
• Using observed data only on the PP population.  
No imputation will be used for safety endpoints. 
10.4.4 Multiplicity Consideration 
As this is an exploratory study with no primary or secondary endpoints, there will be no 
multiplicity adjustments and all analyses are considered hypothesis-generating. 
10.4.5 Efficacy Analyses 
The method of analysis for efficacy endpoints will be based on the distribution of the 
individual variable for analysis. Variables recorded on a continuous scale will be analyzed at 
each visit using two-sample t-tests and Wilcoxon rank sum tests. Each visit and treatment 
group will be summarized using descriptive statistics for the ITT population with observed 
data only. Changes from baseline will be summarized by visit and treatment using descriptive 
statistics and analyzed by visit using ANCOVA models with baseline value and treatment 
group, two sample t-tests and Wilcoxon rank sum tests on the ITT population with observed 
data only. 
For multinomial outcome variables, a generalized linear model will be used, and the 
distribution will be specified as multinomial.  
The ITT population may also be analyzed using LOCF imputation and multiple imputation to 
assess sensitivity as detailed further in the statistical analysis plan (SAP). Analyses using the 
PP population with observed/recorded data only may also be conducted. 
10.4.6 Safety Variables 
Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities 
(MedDRA) dictionary. Frequencies and percentages will be provided per treatment group of 
subjects with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), serious TEAEs, and TEAEs 
causing premature discontinuation will be provided by treatment group. An adverse event is 
treatment emergent if it occurs or worsens after the first dose of randomized study treatment. 
Furthermore, frequencies will be given of subjects with TEAEs by system organ class and 
preferred term, by system organ class, preferred term and maximal severity, by system organ 
class, preferred term for treatment-related adverse events (AEs), by system organ class and 
preferred term for serious adverse events (SAEs); and by system organ class, preferred term, 
and day of onset. Separate analyses will be performed for ocular and non-ocular adverse 
events. 
The incidence of patients who experience a TEAE of interest over the 12-week post-
treatment observation period will be compared between the IC265 and placebo groups. A 
generalized linear model will be used, and the distribution will be specified as binomial.

The incidence of patients who experience a composite of one or more MedDRA preferred 
terms of interest over the 12-week post-treatment observation period will be compared 
between the IC265 and placebo groups. A generalized linear model will be used. 
Other safety endpoints will be summarized by treatment and visit using descriptive statistics. 
Change or shift from baseline will also be summarized where appropriate. For assessments 
performed by eye, both eyes will be summarized separately. 
10.4.7 Interim Analyses 
There will be no interim analyses in this study.

PROTECTION OF HUMAN SUBJECTS 
11.1.1 Subject Informed Consent 
Informed consent must take place before any study specific procedures are initiated. Signed 
and dated written informed consent must be obtained from each subject prior to enrollment 
into the study.  
All informed consent forms must be approved for use by the Sponsor and receive 
approval/favorable opinion from an IRB prior to their use. If the consent form requires 
revision (e.g., due to a protocol amendment or significant new safety information), it is the 
Investigator’s responsibility to ensure that the amended informed consent is reviewed and 
approved by Ora prior to submission to the governing IRB and that it is read, signed and 
dated by all subjects subsequently enrolled in the study as well as those currently enrolled in 
the study. 
If informed consent is taken under special circumstances (oral informed consent), then the 
procedures to be followed must be determined by Ora and/or Sponsor and provided in writing 
by Ora and/or Sponsor prior to the consent process. 
11.1.2 Institutional Review Board (IRB) Approval 
This study is to be conducted in accordance with IRB regulations (U.S. 21 Code of Federal 
Regulations Part 56.103). The Investigator must obtain appropriate IRB approval before 
initiating the study and re-approval at least annually. 
Only an IRB approved version of the informed consent form will be used. 
11.2 
ETHICAL CONDUCT OF THE STUDY 
This study will be conducted in accordance with the ethical principles that originated with the 
Declaration of Helsinki. 
11.3 
SUBJECT CONFIDENTIALITY

Monitors, auditors and other authorized representatives of Ora, the Sponsor, the IRB/IEC 
approving this study, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Department of Health 
and Human Services, other domestic government agencies, and other foreign regulatory 
agencies (when relevant) will be granted direct access to the subject’s original medical and 
study records for verification of the data and/or clinical study procedures. Access to this 
information will be permitted to the aforementioned individuals to the extent permitted by 
law. 
A report of the results of this study may be published or sent to the appropriate health 
authorities in any country in which the IP may ultimately be marketed, but the subject’s 
identity will not be disclosed in these documents. 
11.4 
DOCUMENTATION 
Source documents may include a subject’s medical records, hospital charts, clinic charts, the 
Investigator’s study subject files, as well as the results of diagnostic tests such as X-rays, 
laboratory tests, and electrocardiograms. The Investigator’s copy of the CRFs serves as the 
Investigator’s record of a subject’s study-related data. 
11.4.1 Retention of Documentation 
All study related correspondence, subject records, consent forms, record of the distribution 
and use of all IP, and copies of CRFs should be maintained on file for at least two years after 
the last approval of a marketing application in an ICH region and until there are no pending 
or contemplated marketing applications in an ICH region; or until at least two years have 
elapsed since the formal discontinuation of clinical development of the IP. These documents 
will be retained for a longer period if required by the applicable regulatory requirements or 
by an agreement with the sponsor. It is the responsibility of the sponsor to inform the 
investigator/institution as to when these documents no longer need to be retained. 
If the responsible investigator retires, relocates, or for other reasons withdraws from the 
responsibility of keeping study records, custody must be transferred to a person who will 
accept the responsibility. The sponsor must be notified in writing of the name and address of 
the new custodian. 
11.5 
RECORDING OF DATA ON SOURCE DOCUMENTS AND CASE 
REPORTS FORMS (CRFS) 
The Investigator is responsible for ensuring that study data is completely and accurately 
recorded on each subject’s CRF, source document, and all study-related material. All study 
data should also be attributable, legible, contemporaneous, and original. Recorded datum 
should only be corrected in a manner that does not obliterate, destroy, or render illegible the 
previous entry (e.g., by drawing a single line through the incorrect entry and writing the 
revision next to the corrected data). An individual who has corrected a data entry should 
make clear who made the correction and when, by adding to the correction his/her initials as 
well as the date of the correction. 
Data entry of all enrolled and randomized subjects will use software that conforms to 21 CFR 
Part 11 requirements, and will be performed only by staff who have been trained on the 
system and have access to the system. Data will be entered in eCRF for screen failure 
subjects. An audit trail will be maintained within the electronic system to capture all changes 
made within the eCRF database. After the end of the study and database lock, compact discs 
(CDs) containing copies of all applicable subjects’ eCRFs will be provided to each 
Investigator Site to be maintained on file by the Investigator.

APPENDIX 2: EXAMINATION PROCEDURES, TESTS, & 
EVALUATIONS  
Visual Acuity Procedures (ETDRS Chart) 
LogMAR visual acuity (VA) must be assessed using an Early Treatment Diabetic 
Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) chart. The procedure used will be consistent with the 
recommendations provided for using the ETDRS eye chart. VA should be evaluated at the 
beginning of each visit in the study (i.e., prior to slit-lamp examination). VA testing should 
be done with most recent correction. 
Equipment 
The VA chart to be used is the ETDRS chart. If smaller reproduction (18" by 18", e.g., from 
Prevent Blindness) wall charts are used, the subject viewing distance should be exactly 
10 feet (or as specified by the manufacturer). In all cases, for purposes of standardizing the 
testing conditions during the study, all sites must use only the 'R' charts, and the right eye 
should be tested first. For reflectance (wall) charts, the chart should be placed frontally and 
well-illuminated. 
Measurement Technique 
The chart should be at a comfortable viewing angle. The right eye should be tested first. The 
subject should attempt to read each letter, line-by-line, left to right, beginning with line 1 at 
the top of the chart. The subject should be told that the chart has letters only, no numbers. If 
the subject reads a number, he or she should be reminded that the chart contains no numbers, 
and the examiner should then request a letter in lieu of the number. The subject should be 
asked to read slowly, so as to achieve the best identification of each letter. He/she is not to 
proceed to the next letter until he/she has given a definite response. 
If the subject changes a response (e.g., that was a "C" not an "O") before he has read aloud 
the next letter, then the change must be accepted. If the subject changes a response having 
read the next letter, then the change is not to be accepted. The examiner should never point to 
the chart or to specific letters on the chart during the test. 
A maximum effort should be made to identify each letter on the chart. When the subject says 
he or she cannot read a letter, he or she should be encouraged to guess. If the subject 
identifies a letter as 1 of 2 letters, he or she should be asked to choose 1 letter and, if 
necessary, to guess. When it becomes evident that no further meaningful readings can be 
made, despite encouragement to read or guess, the examiner should stop the test for that eye. 
However, all letters on the last line should be attempted as letter difficulties vary and the last 
may be the only one read correctly. The number of letters missed or read incorrectly should 
be noted. 
LogMAR Visual Acuity Calculations 
The last line in which a letter is read correctly will be taken as the base logMAR reading. To 
this value will be added the number "N x 0.02" where 'N' represents the total number of 
letters missed up to and included in the last line read. This total sum represents the logMAR 
VA for that eye. 
For example: Subject correctly reads 4 of 5 letters on the 0.2 line, and 2 of 5 letters on the 0.1 
line.

Base logMAR 
= 0.1 
N (total number of letters incorrect on line 0.2 as 
well as 0.1) 
= 4 
N x T (T=0.02) 
= 0.08 
Base logMAR + (N x T) 
= 0.1 + 0.08 
logMAR VA 
= 0.18 
Repeat the procedure for the left eye. 
In order to provide standardized and well-controlled assessments of VA during the study, all 
VA assessments at a single site must be consistently done using the same lighting conditions 
and same correction if possible during the entire study. If the same correction cannot be used 
(i.e., a subject forgets his glasses), the reason for the change in correction should be 
documented. 
Slit Lamp Biomicroscopy Procedures 
Slit lamp biomicroscopic observations will be graded as Normal or Abnormal. Abnormal 
findings will be categorized as clinically significant (findings that may interfere with study 
parameters or otherwise confound the data as determined by the investigator) or not clinically 
significant (NCS). The following will be examined:  
• Cornea  
• Conjunctiva 
• Anterior Chamber 
• Iris 
• Lens 
• Eyelid 
External magnification and biomicroscopy will be performed using a slit-lamp. Magnification 
will be consistent with standard clinical practice. The subject will be seated. 
Undilated Fundoscopy 
Undilated fundus exams will be performed using indirect ophthalmoscopy. The Investigator 
will make observations of the vitreous, retina, macula, choroid and optic nerve.  
Observations will be graded as Normal or Abnormal. Abnormal findings that are clinically 
significant (as determined by the Investigator that may interfere with study parameters or 
otherwise confound the data) and those that are not clinically significant will be described. 
An indirect Fundoscopy examination should be performed if retinal disease is detected.  
• Vitreous: Examination should emphasize the visual axis.  
• Retina, Macula, Choroid: Include an observation of the retina and its blood vessels. 
Eyes should be excluded from the study if active inflammation is present.  
• Optic Nerve: Significant damage or cupping to the optic nerve should be noted. 
 
Intraocular Pressure (IOP) 
Intraocular pressure (IOP) will be measured in each eye by contact tonometry by the 
examiner and the results will be recorded in mmHg. A single measurement is made to obtain 
a determination of IOP. The same tonometer employing the investigator’s standard technique

will be used throughout the study. In addition, all reasonable efforts will be made to have the 
same examiner obtain all IOP measurements for a given subject. 
Unanesthetized Schirmer’s Test  
Schirmer Tear Test will be performed according to the following procedure: 
• Using a sterile Tear Flo Schirmer test strip, a bend in the strip will be made in line 
with the notch in the strip. 
• The subject will be instructed to gaze up and in. 
• The Schirmer test strip will be placed in the lower temporal lid margin of each eye 
such that the strip fits tightly. Subjects will be instructed to close their eyes. 
• After 5 minutes have elapsed, the Schirmer strip will be removed. The length of the 
moistened area will be recorded (mm) for each eye.

Visual Analog Scale (VAS) 
Subjects will be asked the following questions regarding ocular discomfort (unrelated to 
study drug instillation) at all visits.  
The subject will be asked to rate each ocular symptom due to ocular dryness by placing a 
vertical mark on the horizontal line to indicate the level of discomfort. 0% corresponds to “no 
discomfort” and 100% corresponds to “maximal discomfort.”  
 
Tear Film Break-Up Time (TFBUT)  
The examiner will instill 5 L of 2% preservative-free sodium fluorescein solution into the 
inferior conjunctival cul-de-sac of each eye. To thoroughly mix the fluorescein with the tear 
film, the subject will be instructed to blink several times. In order to achieve maximum 
fluorescence, the examiner should wait approximately 30 seconds after instillation before 
evaluating TFBUT.   
With the aid of a slit-lamp, the examiner will monitor the integrity of the tear film, noting the 
time it takes to form micelles from the time that the eye is opened. TFBUT will be measured 
in seconds using a stopwatch and a digital image recording system for the right eye followed 
by the left eye. A Wratten #12 yellow filter will be used to enhance the ability to grade 
TFBUT.  
For each eye, 2 measurements will be taken and averaged unless the 2 measurements are > 2 
seconds apart and are each < 10 seconds, in which case, a third measurement would be taken 
and the 2 closest of the 3 would be averaged.

Fluorescein Staining  
The examiner will instill 5 L of 2% preservative-free sodium fluorescein solution into the 
inferior conjunctival cul-de-sac of each eye. In order to achieve maximum fluorescence, the 
examiner should wait approximately 3-5 minutes after instillation before evaluating 
fluorescein staining. A Wratten #12 yellow filter will be used to enhance the ability to grade 
fluorescein staining. The staining will be graded with the Ora Calibra® Corneal and 
Conjunctival Staining Scale.

1. Introduction 
The purpose of this statistical analysis plan (SAP) is to describe in detail the planned analyses and reporting 
for protocol 23-110-0002, Version 3.0 dated 22AUG2023. The statistical analysis methods presented in this 
document will supersede the statistical analysis methods described in the clinical protocol. If additional 
analyses are required to supplement the planned analyses described in this SAP, they may be completed 
and will be identified in the clinical study report. 
This SAP is being written with due consideration of the recommendations outlined in the most recent 
International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) E9 Guideline entitled Guidance for Industry: Statistical 
Principles for Clinical Trials and the most recent ICH E3 Guideline entitled Guidance for Industry: Structure 
and Content of Clinical Study Reports. 
The decision to terminate protocol 23-110-0002 was determined 16NOV2023 due to the emergent adverse 
events of Epithelial Haziness. Details on how the termination affected the protocol-state analyses can be 
found in Section 17. 
2. Study Objectives

3.5 
Statistical Hypotheses 
The clinical hypotheses for this study is that IC265 Ophthalmic Solution 1% twice daily (BID) is superior to 
its vehicle (BID) for the efficacy endpoints.  
4. Study Design and Procedures 
4.1 
General Study Design 
This is a Phase 2, single-center, double-masked, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study. Subjects 
will be randomized to one of the following treatment arms at Visit 2 (Day 1): 
• 
IC265 Ophthalmic Solution 1%: 1 drop BID bilaterally (N=~20)  
• 
Placebo Ophthalmic Solution (Vehicle): 1 drop BID bilaterally (N=~20) 
Approximately 40 subjects will be randomly assigned to one of the two groups (1:1) to receive either IC265 
Ophthalmic Solution 1% or placebo solution as topical ophthalmic drops administered bilaterally BID for 12 
weeks. Subjects, Sponsor, Contract Research Organization (CRO), and site personnel will be masked to 
treatment assignment. 
During the 14-day study run-in period prior to randomization, all subjects will receive Placebo Ophthalmic 
Solution (Vehicle) bilaterally BID.

Page 9 of 27 
During the screening period, two 90-minute exposures to the CAE will be conducted to ascertain eligibility 
to enter the study at Visit 1 (Day -14 ± 2) and Visit 2 (Day 1). Subjects who qualify after the initial screening 
visit will enter the run-in phase, where they will self-administer vehicle BID for approximately 14 days. Those 
who qualify at Visit 2 (Day 1) will be randomized to receive study drug in a double-masked fashion for 84 
days. Subjects will self-administer drops BID and will complete Daily diary symptom score assessments as 
instructed. The CAE exposure will occur at Visit 1 (Day -14 ± 2), Visit 2 (Day 1), Visit 3 (Day 15 ± 2), Visit 
4 (Day 43 ± 2), and Visit 5 (Day 85 ± 4), with Pre-CAE, during CAE and Post-CAE assessments of ocular 
signs and symptoms. Study drug will be discontinued at Visit 5. Subjects will exit from the study at this visit. 
Study visits will be referred to in all tables and listings as the scheduled visit name and planned study day 
corresponding to the visit to enable reviewers to understand the assessment timing without referring to the 
protocol visit schedule. 
4.2 
Schedule of Visits and Assessments 
The schedule of visits and assessments is provided Appendix 1. 
4.3 
Study Treatments 
IC265 Ophthalmic Solution will be formulated as a sterile, non-preserved solution around pH 6 for topical 
ophthalmic administration and is intended for clinical use. The study drug will be supplied in blow-fill seal 
ampoules, which allow for product administration directly to the eye. Each ampoule will contain a nominal 
volume of 0.27 mL. 
The excipients which will be used to manufacture IC265 Ophthalmic Solution will be standard excipients for 
use in ophthalmic solutions that comply with their respective USP / EP monographs. 
The placebo for IC265 Ophthalmic Solution contains all the same excipients used in the active formulation 
without the API. 
5. Sample Size 
Approximately 80 subjects will be screened to enroll 40 subjects (20 subjects in each group). This is a 
Phase 2 study for which no formal sample size calculation has been performed. The sample size chosen 
was not based on statistical considerations, but is based on historical experience. 
6. Data Preparation 
6.1 
Input Data

When all prerequisites for database lock have been met, the database will be locked. Following database 
lock, approval will be obtained from the Sponsor to unmask the study. Any changes to the database after 
data have been locked can only be made with the approval of the Sponsor in consultation with SDC.  
Final analysis will be carried out after the following have occurred: 
• 
Database lock has occurred. 
• 
Analysis populations have been determined. 
• 
Randomized treatment codes have been unmasked. 
6.2 
Output Data 
Data from EDC will be transferred to SDC Biostatistics. Data will then be mapped to analysis datasets. Both 
raw and analysis data will be used to create the subject listings, while all tables and figures will be based 
on the analysis data.  
7. Analysis Populations 
7.1 
Intent-to-Treat Population 
The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Population includes all randomized subjects. All efficacy analyses will be 
performed on the ITT Population, and subjects will be analyzed as randomized.  
7.2 
Safety Population 
The Safety Population includes all randomized subjects who receive at least one dose of the investigational 
product. The subjects will be analyzed as treated. All safety analyses will be based on the Safety Population. 
8. General Statistical Considerations 
8.1 
Unit of Analysis 
Safety endpoints will be analyzed for both eyes. For efficacy endpoints, the unit of analysis will be the study 
eye, or the “worst eye,” as defined by the following:  
Study Eye: Eyes are eligible for analysis if they meet all of the inclusion criteria. In the case that both eyes 
are eligible for analysis, the study eye will be the eye with the worst (higher) total corneal fluorescein 
staining, based on the sum of the inferior, superior, and central regions, at baseline (Visit 2) pre-CAE. If the 
total corneal staining is the same in both eyes, then the right eye will be selected as the study eye. 
The non-study eye will be referred to as the fellow eye. Fellow eye safety summaries will also be presented 
as appropriate. Additionally, non-ocular AEs and medical history will be presented at the subject level. 
8.2 
Missing or Inconclusive Data Handling 
8.2.1 
MISSING EFFICACY ASSESSMENTS 
No imputation will be used for efficacy endpoints.

05FEB2023 
Confidential & Proprietary 
Page 11 of 27 
8.2.2 
MISSING SAFETY ASSESSMENTS 
No imputation will be used for safety endpoints.  
8.3 
Definition of Baseline 
Baseline measures are defined as the last non-missing measure prior to the initiation of randomized study 
treatment, usually at Visit 2 (Day 1). 
8.4 
Data Analysis Conventions 
All data analysis will be performed by SDC. Statistical programming and analyses will be performed using 
SAS® Version 9.4 or higher. Output will be provided in rich text format (RTF) for tables and portable 
document format (PDF) for tables, listings, and figures using landscape orientation.  
Summaries for continuous and ordinal variables will include the number of observations (n), arithmetic 
mean, standard deviation (SD), median, minimum, and maximum. Minima and maxima will be reported with 
the same precision as the raw values; means and medians will be presented to one additional decimal 
place than reported in the raw values. Standard deviations will be presented to two additional decimal 
places than reported in the raw values. Summaries for discrete variables will include counts and 
percentages. All percentages will be rounded to one decimal place (i.e., XX.X%). Differences between 
active treatment and placebo will be calculated as, Active – Placebo, and change from baseline will be 
calculated as, Follow-up Visit – Baseline.  
Unless otherwise specified, summaries will be presented by treatment group and, where appropriate, visit. 
Listings will be presented by subject number, treatment group, visit, time point, and parameter as applicable 
based on all randomized subjects unless otherwise specified.  
8.5 
Adjustments for Multiplicity 
As this is an exploratory study with no primary or secondary endpoints, there will be no multiplicity 
adjustments and all analyses are considered hypothesis-generating. 
9. Disposition of Subjects 
Subject disposition will be presented in terms of the numbers and percentages of subjects who were 
randomized to masked study drug, with subcategories of dosed with the masked study drug and did not 
dose with masked study drug; who were included in the ITT and Safety Populations; and who completed 
the study and discontinued from the study. Subjects who are not discontinued from the study will be 
considered study completers. Disposition will be summarized by treatment group and overall for all subjects. 
Percentages will be calculated using screened subjects as the denominator unless otherwise specified.  
The reasons for premature study discontinuation will be summarized by treatment group and overall for all 
discontinued subjects. Percentages will be calculated using discontinued subjects as the denominator. The 
reasons for study discontinuation that will be summarized include: lost to follow-up, adverse event (AE), 


Protocol 23-110-0002 SAP, Version 0.3 
05FEB2023 
Confidential & Proprietary 
Page 12 of 27 
protocol violation, administrative reasons, sponsor termination of study, subject request/withdrawal, and 
other. A subject listing will be provided that includes the date of and reason for premature study 
discontinuation. 
The number and percentage of subjects with any deviation will be summarized by treatment group and 
overall for all subjects. The protocol deviations that will be summarized include the following categories: 
non-compliance with informed consent, non-compliance with study inclusion or exclusion criteria, site’s non-
compliance with study treatment, subject’s non-compliance with study treatment, improper protocol 
procedures at site, site’s failure to report serious adverse events (SAE) and/or adverse events (AE), non-
compliance with any scheduled study visit, use of disallowed concomitant medications, subject’s failure to 
follow instructions, and other. A subject listing will be provided that includes the date of the deviation, the 
deviation category, the deviation description, and the classification of whether the deviation was judged to 
be major or minor in a masked review. 
Details of the study randomization, including randomization date, randomized treatment, and actual 
treatment, will also be included within a subject listing. 
10. Demographics and Physical Examination  
10.1 
Demographic Variables 
The demographic variables collected in this study include age, gender assigned at birth (i.e., sex), race, 
ethnicity, and iris color. Subjects who record more than one race will be grouped into a single category 
denoted as Multi-racial in the summary table and will be reported as collected in the subject listing. Iris color 
will be summarized at the subject level. Demographic variables will be summarized for the ITT and Safety 
Populations, separately. 
Age (years) will be summarized, by treatment group and overall for all subjects, using continuous 
descriptive statistics. Age will be reported in years and calculated using the following formula: 
Age (years) = (Informed Consent Date – Date of Birth) / 365.25, truncated as an integer 
The number and percentage of subjects will be presented, by treatment group and overall for all subjects, 
for sex, race, ethnicity, and iris color.  
A subject listing that includes all demographic variables will be provided. 
10.2

11. Medical History and Concomitant Medications 
Listings of medical history, concomitant medications, and concomitant procedures will be generated 
separately, as well as separately for ocular and non-ocular data. 
11.1 
Medical History 
Medical history will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA), Version 
26.1. 
Non-ocular medical history will be summarized using discrete summary statistics and presented by 
treatment group and overall for all subjects at the subject level by System Organ Class (SOC) and Preferred 
Term (PT) using the Safety Population. Ocular medical history will be similarly summarized at the subject 
level. If a subject reports the same PT multiple times within the same SOC, that PT will only be reported 
once within that SOC. As with the PT, if a subject reports multiple conditions within the same SOC, that 
SOC will only be reported once. In the summaries, SOCs are ordered in ascending alphabetical order, and 
PTs within an SOC are sorted by descending frequency for all subjects. 
11.2 
Prior and Concomitant Medications 
Prior and concomitant medications will be coded using the World Health Organization Drug Dictionary 
(WHODrug) Global, B3, September 2023 version and summarized to the therapeutic drug class 
(Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical [ATC] 4 classification) and preferred name. If the ATC 4 classification is 
not provided, then the next highest classification that is provided in the coding dictionary will be used. The 
preferred name will be defined as the active ingredient; if the active ingredient is not provided or includes 
more than two ingredients (e.g., multivitamins), then the drug name will be summarized as the preferred 
name. 
Concomitant medications are defined as those medications listed as having been taken (1) prior to initiation 
of study drug administration and continuing for any period of time following the first administration of study 
drug or (2) at any time following the first administration of study drug. Prior medications are defined as 
those medications that are stopped prior to initiation of study drug administration. 
Concomitant medications will be summarized using the ITT Population. Medications will be tabulated for 
each treatment group using frequencies and percentages. Subjects may have more than one medication 
per ATC text. At each level of subject summarization, a subject will be counted once if he/she reports one 
or more medications. Percentages will be based on the number of subjects in each treatment group. In the 
summaries, ATC Classes and preferred names will be presented in ascending alphabetical order. A listing 
will be provided of prior and concomitant medications. 
11.3 
Concomitant Procedures 
Concomitant procedures will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA), 
Version 26. 1. Concomitant procedures will not be summarized, but a listing will be provided.

12. Dosing Compliance and Treatment Exposure 
In addition to the analyses described in the following sections, subject listings will be provided for study 
drug assignment, study drug instillation, and subject daily dosing diary records. 
12.1 
Dosing Compliance 
Dosing compliance (% compliance) will be assessed by calculating the number of actual doses received 
and comparing that to the number of expected doses as follows: 
Compliance (%) = 
Number of Actual Doses Received 
x 100% 
Number of Expected Doses 
The number of actual doses received will be calculated from the number of used vials recorded in the drug 
accountability eCRF or from the subject diary and in-office instillations. The number of expected doses that 
will be used for calculating compliance will be calculated as:  
Number of Expected Doses = 2 x [(Date of Last Dose - Date of First Dose) + 1] 
for all subjects, regardless of study completion status. 
A categorical dosing compliance variable will also be derived as non-compliant (< 80%), compliant (≥ 80% 
and ≤ 125%), and over compliant (> 125%). 
Dosing compliance (%) will be summarized with continuous descriptive statistics for each treatment group 
using the ITT Population. The compliance category defined above will be summarized with discrete 
summary statistics.  
A subject listing of dosing compliance will also be produced. 
12.2 
Treatment Exposure 
Extent of treatment exposure for completed or discontinued subjects will be calculated in days using the 
following: 
Extent of Exposure (days) = (Date of Last Dose - Date of First Dose) + 1 
Extent of treatment exposure for subjects who were lost to follow-up will be calculated in days using the 
following: 
Extent of Exposure (days) = (Date of Last Recorded Visit - Date of First Dose) + 1 
Extent of treatment exposure for each subject exposed to study drug will be summarized with continuous 
descriptive statistics for each treatment group using the Safety Population. A subject listing of treatment 
exposure will also be produced.

14. Safety Analyses 
All safety analyses will be conducted using the Safety Population. 
14.1 
Adverse Events 
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as any event that occurs or worsens on or after 
the first dose of study drug administration. Only TEAEs will be summarized, however all AEs collected in 
the eCRF will be presented in data listings. All AEs will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory 
Activities (MedDRA), Version 26.1.  
An overall summary will be presented that includes the number of events and the number and percentage 
of subjects who experienced at least one TEAE, by treatment group. This summary will also include 
breakdowns of TEAEs further categorized as ocular (study eye and fellow eye separately) or non-ocular, 
treatment-related TEAEs, treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TE-SAEs), TEAEs leading to early 
treatment discontinuation, TEAEs leading to death, and TEAEs by maximum severity. 
Additional summaries of TEAEs will be provided showing the number and percentage of subjects who 
experienced at least one TEAE by treatment group and classified by the MedDRA SOC and PT. Ocular 
and non-ocular TEAEs will be summarized separately. If a subject reports multiple TEAEs to the same SOC 
or multiple PTs within the same SOC, the subject will be counted only once within that SOC or PT. In the 
summaries, SOCs will be listed in ascending alphabetical order; PTs will be listed in order of descending 
frequency for all subjects within each SOC.  
Separate summaries by SOC and PT will be provided for the following categories of AEs:  
• 
Ocular TEAEs  
• 
Non-ocular TEAEs  
• 
Treatment-related ocular TEAEs 
• 
Treatment-related non-ocular TEAEs 
• 
TE-SAEs 
Summaries of TEAEs by maximum severity will be presented for ocular AEs and non-ocular TEAEs 
separately. The number of subjects with any TEAEs (along with percentages) will be tabulated by SOC and 
PT within each SOC by treatment group. To count the number of subjects with any TEAEs, if a subject has 
multiple TEAEs coded to the same SOC or PT within an SOC, the subject will be counted once under the 
maximum severity. 
All AEs will be presented in a subject listing. In addition, SAEs and AEs leading to study treatment 
discontinuation will be listed separately.

14.2 
Visual Acuity  
The logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity is assessed at each visit using an 
Early Treatment Diabetic Retinography Study (ETDRS) chart. Subjects should use their most recent 
correction to attain their visual acuity (VA). 
The observed and change from baseline visual acuity will be summarized for each eye (study eye and 
fellow eye) using continuous descriptive statistics by visit for each treatment group and for all actively 
treated subjects. A subject listing of visual acuity will also be produced. This listing will include a variable 
that indicates if a subject had a visual acuity change from baseline of ≥0.2 on the logMAR scale. 
14.3 
Slit-Lamp Biomicroscopy 
A slit-lamp biomicroscopy examination of the cornea, conjunctiva, anterior chamber, iris, lens, and eyelid 
will be performed at each visit. The results will be graded as normal, abnormal not clinically significant 
(NCS), or abnormal clinically significant (CS). 
The results will be summarized using counts and percentages for each treatment group and for all actively 
treated subjects at each visit for each eye (study eye and fellow eye). Percentages will be based on the 
number of subjects in each treatment group with responses. Shift tables for the slit-lamp biomicroscopy 
parameters will also be provided comparing each follow-up visit to baseline. A subject listing of the slit-lamp 
biomicroscopy parameters will also be produced. 
14.4 
Undilated Fundoscopy 
An undilated fundoscopy examination of the vitreous, retina, macula, choroid and optic nerve will be 
performed at each visit. The results will be graded as normal, abnormal NCS, or abnormal CS.  
The results will be summarized using counts and percentages for each treatment group and for all actively 
treated subjects at each visit for each eye (study eye and fellow eye). Percentages will be based on the 
number of subjects in each treatment group with responses. Shift tables for the undilated fundoscopy 
parameters will also be provided comparing each follow-up visit to baseline. A subject listing of the undilated 
fundoscopy parameters will also be produced. 
14.5 
Intraocular Pressure 
Subjects’ IOP will be assessed by non-contact tonometry in each eye at each visit. Results will be taken 
from a single measurement and will be recorded in millimeters of Mercury (mmHg). 
The IOP values and changes from baseline for each eye (study eye and fellow eye) will be summarized 
using continuous descriptive statistics by visit and eye for each treatment group and for all actively treated 
subjects. A subject listing of IOP will also be produced. This listing will include identifiers which indicates if 
a subject had an IOP increase from baseline of ≥6 or ≥10 mmHg.

14.6 
Drop Comfort Scale Assessment 
Subjects’ drop comfort will be assessed for each eye at Visits 2, 3, and 4 using the Ora Calibra® Drop 
Comfort Scale, where 0 indicates Very Comfortable and 10 indicates Very Uncomfortable. 
The scale values for each eye (study eye and fellow eye) will be summarized using continuous descriptive 
statistics by visit and eye for each treatment group and all randomized subjects. A subject listing of drop 
comfort results will also be produced. 
15. Other Data 
15.1 
Physical Examination 
Physical examinations of general health, head, eye, ear, nose and throat (HEENT), and other body systems 
will be graded as normal, abnormal not clinically significant (NCS), or abnormal clinically significant (CS).  
A subject listing that includes all physical examination results will be provided. 
15.2 
Visual Analog Scale 
A VAS instrument measures a characteristic that spans a continuum, cannot be precisely or optimally 
measured by, or would lack sensitivity in distinguishing subtle changes on an ordinal scale. VAS will be 
administered to assess the subject’s experience of ocular discomfort (unrelated to study drug instillation), 
where higher score indicates greater discomfort.  
A subject listing that includes all VAS results will be provided. 
16. Interim Analyses 
There will be no interim analyses in this study. To note, the study was terminated early on 16NOV2023. 
17. Changes from Protocol-Stated Analyses 
Changes from the protocol-stated analyses, due to early termination of the study on 16NOV2023, include 
the following: 
• 
Per Protocol population will not be determined.  
• 
No imputation will be used for efficacy or safety endpoints. Specifically, the ITT population will not 
be analyzed using the Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) imputation method and multiple 
imputation. 
• 
Sensitivity analyses will not be conducted as the PP population has been removed and no 
imputation will be used.  
• 
Statistical testing will not be conducted. Descriptive statistics will be utilized for the efficacy and 
safety endpoints.
