This study assesses safety and efficacy of PP-001 after intravitreal injection in patients diagnosed with non-infectious chronic uveitis. PP-001 is a novel small molecule inhibitor of Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH) and has shown pre-clinical efficacy in treatment of non-infectious uveitis. PP-001 is to offer a local treatment alternative to corticosteroids with the objective to reduce or possibly replace steroid intake of non-infectious uveitis patients. In the current study, PP-001 will be injected in ascending doses into the vitreous body of the eye of study participants who suffer from non-infectious uveitis. Participants will be monitored for safety and efficacy evaluation of the study drug.
In this study, PP-001 is assessed for safety and efficacy in patients diagnosed with non-infectious chronic uveitis. PP-001 is a novel small molecule that inhibits a specific enzyme (Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase) and has shown pre-clinical efficacy in treatment of non-infectious uveitis. PP-001 will be administered to participants as a single intravitreal injection in ascending doses.
