Ocugen Announces Positive Preliminary Phase 2 Data from OCU410 Modifier Gene Therapy

for Geographic Atrophy Secondary to Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration

 

· Phase 2 (~50% of patients evaluated to date at 12 months) shows 46% lesion growth reduction vs. control
· There are no OCU410-related serious adverse events reported across the Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials to date

 

MALVERN, Pa., January 15, 2026 (Globe Newswire) — Ocugen, Inc. (Ocugen or the Company) (NASDAQ: OCGN), a pioneering biotechnology leader in gene therapies for blindness diseases, today announced positive preliminary 12-month data (~50% of patients evaluated to date) from the Phase 2 ArMaDa clinical trial evaluating OCU410 (AAV5-RORA), its novel modifier gene therapy for geographic atrophy (GA) secondary to dry age-related macular degeneration (dAMD). The global prevalence of dAMD is 266 million worldwide, and GA – the late stage of dAMD – affects approximately 2-3 million people in the United States (U.S.) and Europe.

 

There are limited options for patients with dAMD in the U.S. and current therapies involve frequent (monthly or every other month) injections and have unwanted side effects that can affect vision. Outside of the U.S., there are no approved products available, leaving approximately 2 million patients in Europe without a treatment option.

 

Key findings from Phase 2 include:

 

· 46% lesion growth reduction (medium + high dose vs. control; p=0.015; N=23) at 12 months
· Medium dose achieved 54% lesion reduction (p=0.02; N=10) vs. high dose 36% (p=0.05; N=8) compared to control
· 50% responder rate with patients achieving >50% lesion size reduction vs. control
· Subgroup (N=14, subjects with ≥7.5 mm2 at baseline) showed 57% greater reduction in lesion size compared to control

 

New findings from Phase 1 (N=9) include:

 

· In evaluable subjects (N=7) ellipsoid zone (EZ) loss was 60% slower in OCU410-treated eyes compared to untreated fellow eyes at 12 months
· EZ-RPE complex loss reduced in treated eyes versus fellow eyes, demonstrating photoreceptor + RPE preservation

 

In both the Phase 1 and Phase 2 clinical trials no OCU410-related serious adverse events were observed and no cases of endophthalmitis, retinal detachment, vasculitis, choroidal neovascularization, or optic ischemic neuropathy have been reported to date.

 

GA is a multifactorial disease with a complex etiology that involves genetic and environmental factors. The current treatment options for GA in the U.S. are limited to those targeting a single mechanism—the complement pathway—requiring frequent intravitreal injections, either monthly or every other month. By contrast, OCU410 is a multifunctional modifier gene therapy, which targets multiple pathways associated with GA.

 

"The OCU410 Phase 1 and Phase 2 results mark a pivotal moment for Ocugen's modifier gene therapy platform and GA patients worldwide," said Dr. Shankar Musunuri, Chairman, CEO, and Co-founder of Ocugen. "Delivering 60% slower EZ loss in Phase 1 and 46% lesion growth reduction in the Phase 2 preliminary analysis demonstrates the capability of our multi-pathway RORA approach. We look forward to reporting full data from the OCU410 Phase 2 clinical trial later this quarter and initiating Phase 3 in 2026.”

 

"The clinical development journey of OCU410 has been remarkable," said Dr. Huma Qamar, Chief Medical Officer of Ocugen. "Our Phase 2 randomized trial delivered robust anatomic efficacy that was statistically significant across multiple analyses.

 

 


 

Critically, our safety data across 60 patients has shown no drug-related serious adverse events, no inflammation signals, and no injection complications to date, supporting a favorable risk-benefit profile." “As a practicing retinal specialist, OCU410's clinical profile is genuinely exciting for geographic atrophy patients - including a reduction in ellipsoid zone loss observed in Phase 1, which may serve as a potential marker of retinal health, and a reduction in lesion growth seen in Phase 2,” said Lejla Vajzovic, MD, FASRS, Director, Duke Surgical Vitreoretinal Fellowship Program, Professor of Ophthalmology with Tenure, Adult and Pediatric Vitreoretinal Surgery and Disease, Duke University Eye Center, and Retina Scientific Advisory Board Chair of Ocugen. With these promising results, I believe OCU410 has the potential to set a new standard of care with a single treatment for life.”

 

In the Phase 2 study, the safety and efficacy of OCU410 in patients with GA secondary to dAMD are being assessed. Fifty-one (51) patients were randomized 1:1:1 into either of two treatment groups (medium or high dose) or a control group. In the treatment groups, subjects received a single subretinal 200-µL administration of 5 x 1010 vector genomes (vg)/mL (medium dose) or 1.5 x 1011 vg/mL (high dose), while the control group remained untreated. The Company remains on track for a Biologics License Application (BLA) filing for OCU410 in 2028, aligned with its strategy to advance three regulatory submissions for marketing authorization in three years.

 

About dAMD and Geographic Atrophy

 

Geographic atrophy is an advanced form of dAMD characterized by progressive degeneration of the macula, leading to irreversible central vision loss. Millions of patients worldwide are affected by GA, with a particularly high burden in aging populations in the United States and Europe. Despite recent approvals, treatment options remain limited and require chronic intravitreal injections, underscoring the need for innovative, durable therapies that address multiple disease mechanisms. dAMD affects approximately 10 million Americans and more than 266 million people worldwide. It is characterized by the thinning of the macula, the portion of the retina responsible for clear vision in one’s direct line of sight. dAMD involves the slow deterioration of the retina with submacular drusen (small white or yellow dots on the retina), atrophy, loss of macular function, and central vision impairment. dAMD accounts for 85-90% of all AMD cases.

 

About OCU410

 

OCU410 is an investigational, intravitreally administered, AAV5-based gene therapy that delivers RORA (retinoid-related orphan receptor alpha), a nuclear receptor that regulates key pathways involved in retinal homeostasis, including oxidative stress response, complement regulation, inflammation, and lipid metabolism. OCU410 is being developed as a one-time gene therapy for patients with GA secondary to dry AMD. OCU410 has received Advanced Therapy Medicinal Product (ATMP) classification from the European Medicines Agency.
