Insights

Clearside's upcoming presentations on suprachoroidal delivery platform and CLS-AX program represent important clinical progress for their retinal disease pipeline.

Clearside Biomedical is advancing its innovative suprachoroidal delivery platform with multiple presentations scheduled at the upcoming EURETINA Congress. The company's SCS Microinjector® technology enables targeted drug delivery to the back of the eye, potentially addressing multiple retinal diseases including wet AMD, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, geographic atrophy and ocular cancer.

Most significantly, the company will present Phase 2b results from the ODYSSEY trial for CLS-AX (axitinib injectable suspension) in neovascular age-related macular degeneration alongside details about their Phase 3 program design, which has received FDA alignment. This progression to late-stage development indicates the company is advancing its lead candidate through the regulatory pathway.

Clearside is also expanding its pipeline with a new streamlined Phase 2 trial in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, demonstrating pipeline diversification beyond their initial wet AMD focus. The company's partnership with REGENXBIO for suprachoroidal gene therapy delivery (ALTITUDE study) further validates their platform technology.

The presentations' focus on geographic atrophy is particularly noteworthy, as this represents a significant unmet medical need with growing market potential as the population ages. The company believes their approach may improve efficacy for small molecules and complement inhibition while potentially reducing systemic and anterior segment side effects - addressing key challenges in current treatment options.

These developments collectively showcase Clearside's progress in leveraging their proprietary delivery platform across multiple high-value retinal indications, potentially expanding their addressable market and clinical relevance.

ALPHARETTA, Ga., Aug. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clearside Biomedical, Inc. (Nasdaq: CLSD) (“Clearside� or the “Company�), a biopharmaceutical company revolutionizing the delivery of therapies to the back of the eye through the suprachoroidal space (SCS®), announced today that its SCS delivery platform and CLS-AX program will be highlighted in multiple presentations at the 25th EURETINA Congress from September 4 - 7, 2025 in Paris, France. Victor Chong, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer and EVP, Head of Research and Development will also participate in a panel discussion at the preceding Ophthalmology Futures Retina Forum on September 3, 2025.

Clearside’s suprachoroidal delivery platform is designed to enable targeted treatment for multiple retinal diseases, including wet AMD, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema, geographic atrophy and ocular cancer.

“We are excited to showcase our SCS Microinjector® platform and advancements with our CLS-AX program at these prominent medical meetings in Europe,� said Dr. Chong. “For CLS-AX, we have designed a Phase 3 trial in wet AMD in alignment with the U.S. FDA, and a new, streamlined Phase 2 trial design in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy. In addition, we believe suprachoroidal delivery has the potential to provide a targeted approach for the treatment of geographic atrophy, enabling drug dispersion directly to the choroid and retina while potentially minimizing systemic and anterior segment side effects. This method may offer improved efficacy for small molecules and complement inhibition in both the retinal pigment epithelium and choroid,� Dr. Chong concluded.

About CLS-AX (axitinib injectable suspension)

CLS-AX (axitinib injectable suspension) is a proprietary suspension of axitinib for suprachoroidal injection. Axitinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), currently approved as an oral tablet formulation to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma, that achieves pan-VEGF blockade, directly inhibiting VEGF receptors-1, -2, and -3 with high potency and specificity. Clearside believes this broad VEGF blockade may have efficacy advantages over existing retinal therapies by acting at a different level of the angiogenesis cascade and may benefit patients who sub-optimally respond to current, more narrowly focused anti-VEGF therapies. Suprachoroidal injection of this proprietary suspension of axitinib has demonstrated meaningful potential in Phase 1/2a and Phase 2b wet AMD clinical trials in which CLS-AX was well tolerated and demonstrated a positive safety profile. With suprachoroidal administration of axitinib, there is the potential to achieve prolonged duration and targeted delivery to affected tissue layers by compartmentalizing axitinib behind the retina, thereby limiting drug exposure to the front of the eye.
