Uveitis Uveitis, Posterior Uveitis, Anterior Uveitis, Intermediate Panuveitis | Drug: 4mg CLS-TA Suprachoriodal Injection Drug: Sham Procedure | Phase 3 |
This is a Phase 3, randomized, masked, sham-controlled, multicenter study to assess the safety and efficacy of 4 mg of CLS-TA administered via suprachoroidal injection compared to a sham injection procedure in the treatment of subjects with macular edema associated with non-infectious uveitis.
Qualified subjects will be randomized to receive two suprachoroidal injections of CLS-TA administered to the study eye or two sham injection procedures administered to the study eye approximately 12 weeks apart (Visit 2 and Visit 5). Follow-up visits will be conducted monthly up to 24 weeks (Visit 8).

- Number of Subjects Demonstrating ≥ 15 Letter Improvement From Baseline in Best Corrected Visual Acuity at 24 Weeks [ Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks ]Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) refers to the measurement of the best possible vision that can be achieved following refraction or correction. BCVA was assessed following the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) protocol and was measured in the number of letters read correctly on electronic Visual Acuity (eVA). An increase from the pre-treatment state in BCVA of 15 letters or more represents a clinically meaningful improvement.
- Mean Change From Baseline in Central Subfield Thickness [ Time Frame: Baseline, 24 weeks ]Central subfield thickness (CST) is a diagnostic measurement used in identifying the presence of edema in the circular area 1 mm in diameter centered around the fovea. CST was measured using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). A masked reading center graded the SD-OCT digital images. A negative change from baseline value represents a reduction in macular edema. Only images that were gradable by the central reading center were included in the analysis.
- Number of Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: Baseline to 24 weeks ]Number of subjects with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) reported between the first dose of study drug and study exit.
