MUMBAI, Índia, 4 de janeiro de 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- A Sun Pharma anunciou os bem-sucedidos resultados  do teste clínico fase 3 confirmatório para Seciera™ (solução oftalmológica de ciclosporina A, 0.09%), para o tratamento da doença do olho seco. Seciera™ é uma formulação nanomicelar de ciclosporina A 0.09%, nova, própria e patenteada. É uma solução aquosa clara e sem conservantes. Seciera™ está sendo desenvolvida pela Ocular Technologies, uma empresa recentemente adquirida pela Sun Pharma. Depois desta aquisição, a Sun Pharma detém direitos mundiais exclusivos sobre Seciera™ e a está desenvolvendo para comercialização em mercados mundiais, incluindo a Europa e o Japão, bem como diversos mercados emergentes.

Neste estudo fase 3 confirmatório de 12 semanas – randomizado, duplo-cego e controlado por veículo – em centros diversos, 744 pacientes de olho seco foram tratados ou com Seciera™ ou seu veículo. Depois de 12 semanas de tratamento, quando comparado ao veículo, Seciera™ estatisticamente demonstrou melhoria significativa no critério de avaliação primário, a marca de Schirmer (uma medida de produção de lágrimas) (p<0.0001). A demonstração da eficácia da Seciera™, em 12 semanas, é anterior à de outras drogas aprovadas para o olho seco, na mesma classe. [1] Além disso, comparados ao veículo  diversos critérios de avaliação secundários importantes estatisticamente demonstraram melhorias significativas – com alguns mostrando um início de ação ainda mais precoce. Eventos adversos relatados no teste foram de natureza amena a moderada, e similar a outras drogas aprovadas na categoria. [1]-[3] Como a Sun continua a analisar os dados, conclusões adicionais significativas serão compartilhadas nas próximas conferências médicas.

Anteriormente, em um teste clínico fase 2b/3 concluído, com 455 pacientes, Seciera™ demonstrou um rápido início de ação e foi bem tolerada pela população estudada. Com base nos dados publicados, os critérios de avaliação da eficácia e da segurança nesses testes compararam-se favoravelmente a outras formulações de ciclosporina A, com a vantagem do efeito precoce.[1]

De acordo com Dilip Shanghvi, diretor executivo da Sun Pharma, "Estamos contentes de ver os resultados do início prematuro da ação e forte eficácia da Seciera™. Esses resultados são altamente incentivadores para milhões de pacientes do olho seco [4]-[6] de todo o mundo, que ainda precisam encontrar alívio para sua condição. Estamos ansiosos para discutir esses resultados com a FDA dos EUA e combinar os próximos passos do programa".

"Estou muito entusiasmado de ver esses fortes resultados da Seciera™," observou o Dr. Joseph Tauber, investigador do estudo e fundador do Tauber Eye Center, Kansas City, Missouri.  "Como um clínico especializado no diagnóstico e tratamento do olho seco, esta nova formulação da ciclosporina A será um acréscimo único e bem-vindo ao nosso armamento para tratar esses pacientes".

Jerry St. Peter, vice-presidente e diretor da Sun Ophthalmics, acrescentou: "Um imperativo estratégico fundamental para nossa empresa oftalmológica é participar do dinâmico, em rápido crescimento e mal atendido mercado do olho seco, que deve alcançar os US$5 bilhões até 2020.[7] Com base no sucesso deste estudo fase 3 confirmatório, Seciera™ tem o potencial de reforçar nossa emergente linha de produtos oftalmológicos, que inclui o recente lançamento de BromSite™ e programas de desenvolvimento de estágio final para Xelpros™ e DexaSite™."
