About ST266

ST266 is a cell-free platform biologic containing hundreds of proteins and other factors in physiologic levels that are involved in cellular healing, protection of the brain and nerves, and modulation of inflammation. ST266 is the first potential therapeutic focused on treating the underlying nerve degeneration that occurs in glaucoma and optic nerve diseases and injuries through an innovative, non-invasive, targeted intranasal device to deliver ST266 directly to the retina and optic nerve by-passing the blood-brain barrier. Based on successful preclinical studies, Noveome is currently conducting a Phase 1 open-label clinical trial to establish the safety of ST266 in subjects with elevated ocular hypertension by intranasal delivery with topline data expected in 2020.
