SpyGlass Pharma Announces Positive Topline 12-Month Phase 1/2 Trial Results For Its Innovative BIM-IOL System SpyGlass Pharma, Inc. announced positive 12-month results from the Phase 1/2 trial evaluating its lead product candidate, the Bimatoprost Drug Pad-IOL System (BIM-IOL System), for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients previously diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT) and a concomitant cataract. A total of 104 patients were randomized 2:1:1 to receive the 78 mcg BIM-IOL System (N=51) and 39 mcg BIM-IOL System (N=23) with daily administration of artificial tear drops, or a commercially available monofocal IOL from Alcon, Bausch + Lomb or Johnson & Johnson with twice-daily administration of timolol eye drops as the control group (N=30). At 12 months, the BIM-IOL System achieved: Evaluable patients achieved a 34% and 42% reduction in mean IOP from baseline in the 78-mcg and 39-mcg dose groups, respectively, compared to a 35% reduction in the control group at 8 a.m. Results were similar at the 10 a.m. timepoint. 98% of evaluable patients (48 of 49) in the 78-mcg dose group and 96% of evaluable patients (22 of 23) in the 39-mcg dose group were free from all topical IOP-lowering medications. Evaluable patients (N=72) demonstrated vision improvement, 100% reaching 20/32 or better best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA) and mean BCDVA of 86 letters (equivalent to 20/20 vision). Adverse event (AE) rates were similar across the 78-mcg (41.2%), 39-mcg (43.5%), and control (36.7%) groups. No serious ocular AEs were observed. In January 2026, SpyGlass Pharma announced that the first patients were randomized in two identical registrational Phase 3 trials of the 78-mcg dose of the BIM-IOL System. The Phase 3 trials are largely consistent in trial design with the SpyGlass Pharma Phase 1/2 trial with minor protocol modifications intended to improve consistency across trial arms. The Phase 1/2 trial is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, controlled clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of the innovative BIM-IOL System in patients with OAG or OHT undergoing cataract surgery. A total of 104 evaluable patients were randomized 2:1:1 to receive the 78 mcg BIM-IOL System (N=51) with daily administration of artificial tear drops, 39 mcg BIM-IOL System (N=23) with daily administration of artificial tear drops, or a commercially available monofocal IOL with twice-daily administration of timolol eye drops as the control group (N=30). The primary endpoint is mean IOP reduction from baseline at two time points for each follow-up visit at the 2 Weeks, 6 Weeks, and 3 Months. Secondary endpoints include mean IOP reduction from baseline, mean IOP, time to reintroduction and number of IOP-lowering medications, and improvement of visual performance. The trial also includes typical safety assessments for both medication and IOL. SpyGlass Pharma’s lead product candidate, the Bimatoprost Drug Pad-IOL System (BIM-IOL System), comprising novel, proprietary non-bioerodible drug pads attached to its intraocular lens, was designed to be implanted during routine cataract surgery to reduce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients who have either open-angle glaucoma (OAG) or ocular hypertension (OHT). The BIM-IOL System is designed to consistently deliver multiple years of bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analog approved for topical use by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2001, for the reduction of elevated IOP in patients with OAG or OHT. The company continues long-term follow-up of patients in both the first-in-human trial and Phase 1/2 trial as well as patient enrollment in ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials. SpyGlass plans to work with the FDA to advance the program through 505(b)(2) New Drug Application (NDA) submission and ultimately to potential commercial approval. Announcement • Feb 06
