(Ocugen or the Company) (NASDAQ: OCGN), a pioneering biotechnology leader in gene therapies for blindness diseases, today reported first quarter 2025 financial results along with a general business update. “All three of our novel modifier gene therapies are advancing through the clinic and we are on track to meet our goal of three Biologics License Application (BLA)/Marketing Authorization Application (MAA) filings in the next three years,” said Dr. Shankar Musunuri, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Co-Founder of Ocugen. “We remain steadfast in our mission to provide a one-time therapy for life to address considerable unmet medical needs that exist for millions of patients facing the terrifying prospect of losing their vison.” In January, the Company announced positive two-year long-term safety and efficacy data from the Phase 1/2 clinical trial of OCU400 for RP that demonstrated a durable, clinically meaningful, and statistically significant (p=0.005) improvement in visual function (LLVA) in all evaluable treated subjects at two years when compared to untreated eyes.

The OCU400 Phase 3 liMeliGhT clinical trial is open to all eligible RP patients—early to advanced stage RP including pediatric subjects age 5+—regardless of gene mutation (syndromic and non-syndromic forms of RP). OCU400 has the potential to treat all 300,000 RP patients in the U.S. and EU. Alignment was reached with the FDA to move forward with a Phase 2/3 pivotal confirmatory trial for OCU410ST for Stargardt disease, which includes an adaptive design with a masked interim analysis at 8 months. Stargardt disease affects 100,000 people in the U.S. and EU. The Phase 2/3 clinical trial will randomize 51 subjects, 34 of who...
