BioCryst and Clearside Biomedical Enter Partnership to Develop Avoralstat for Diabetic Macular Edema Using Clearside’s Proprietary SCS Microinjector®

ALPHARETTA, Ga. and RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C., Nov. 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BioCryst Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: BCRX) and Clearside Biomedical, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSD) today announced the entry into a license agreement enabling BioCryst to develop its investigational plasma kallikrein inhibitor, avoralstat, with Clearside’s SCS Microinjector® to deliver avoralstat directly to the back of the eye through the suprachoroidal space to treat patients with diabetic macular edema (DME).

Key Points:

“Many DME patients are not effectively controlled with anti-VEGF therapy, so it is exciting to target plasma kallikrein by combining avoralstat with delivery into the suprachoroidal space using Clearside’s proprietary SCS Microinjector.
Avoralstat has high potency and low solubility, which are two characteristics important to achieving potential efficacy with reduced dosing frequency in the eye for DME patients.
Avoralstat was previously evaluated in an oral formulation in a Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with hereditary angioedema (HAE).
“Treating patients with DME by delivering avoralstat directly to the suprachoroidal space using the SCS Microinjector expands the reach of our proprietary SCS injection platform to a greater number of patients.
