Strong clinical data for Breye Therapeutics’ lead oral asset danegaptide presented at Angiogenesis, Exudation and Degeneration 2026 symposium

  • Prof. Carl D. Regillo, MD, presented clinical data from the Phase 1b trial evaluating Breye Therapeutics’ lead candidate, danegaptide, in 24 patients with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) with associated macular edema
  • Oral treatment was well tolerated, showed signs of clinical effect and retinal imaging data consistent with reductions in vascular leakage, one of the core pathologies of NPDR
  • Reductions in vascular leakage are well-known to precede reductions in Diabetic Retinopathy Severity Scale (DRSS) scores
  • The data support initiation of a Phase 2, randomized clinical trial in patients with NPDR to assess reductions in DRSS scores, which Breye Therapeutics is currently preparing for
