Intraocular

drug development and the PK-Eye

TM

The PK-Eye™ is a compartmentalised, in vitro model that mimics the dimensions and aqueous outflow of the human eye.

Human clearance times for biologics and membrane permeable drugs can be accurately estimated using the PK-Eye™.

The PK-Eye™ accelerates formulation and late preclinical dose escalation studies that are not possible using in vivo and radiolabeled studies.

Use of the PK-Eye™ permits much better resource allocation for the efficient use of in vivo and radiolabeled studies required for optimised developmental candidates.

Optceutics Ltd is able to conduct high throughput formulation development of intraocular drugs at all stages of preclinical development.
