    NEW YORK, May 12, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN), a clinical stage ophthalmic company developing a pipeline of advanced therapeutics based on its proprietary microdose array print (MAP™) platform technology, today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.

    First Quarter 2021 and Recent Business Highlights

    • U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted the Company’s New Drug Application (NDA) for the Company’s pupil dilation agent MydCombi™ and has notified the Company that the PDUFA date is confirmed for October 28, 2021.
    • Secured new $25 million credit facility through Silicon Valley Bank (SVB).
    • Completed patient enrollment in the Company’s Phase 3 VISION-1 study of MicroLine for the improvement in near vision in patients with presbyopia and anticipates top-line results in the coming weeks. Results from VISION-1 will help inform the design of a planned second Phase 3 study, VISION-2.
    • Announced an exclusive partnership agreement with EVERSANA, a leading commercial service provider to the life science industry, to help commercialize and distribute MydCombi in the United States.
    • Appointed Dr. Julia Haller, renowned ophthalmologist and scientific leader, to Eyenovia’s Board of Directors.

    Dr. Sean Ianchulev, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer of Eyenovia, commented, “The Eyenovia team has made substantial progress in advancing towards its clinical, regulatory, and commercial goals during the first quarter of 2021. We look forward to our PDUFA date for MydCombi on October 28th of this year. In preparation for the anticipated approval, we were pleased to announce an exclusive agreement with EVERSANA to help lead distribution of MydCombi in the United States.  If approved, MydCombi would be the first microdosed ocular therapeutic applied with our proprietary high precision smart delivery system, the Optejet®.”

    “Regarding our Phase 3 VISION-1 clinical study evaluating our proprietary pilocarpine formulation, MicroLine, which is also delivered via the Optejet, for the improvement of near vision in patients with presbyopia, we have completed patient enrollment and anticipate top-line results in the coming weeks. We remain focused on advancing our late-stage clinical programs, while preparing to transition into a commercial-stage ophthalmology company. I believe we have set the stage for a transformational year in 2021,” concluded Dr. Ianchulev.

    First Quarter 2021 Financial Review

    For the first quarter of 2021, net loss was approximately $5.4 million, or $(0.21) per share, compared to a net loss of approximately $5.5 million, or $(0.31) per share, for the first quarter of 2020.

    For the first quarter of 2021, the Company reported license fee revenue of $2.0 million from its license agreement with Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited and a corresponding cost of revenue representing payments to Senju Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. of $800,000.

    Research and development expenses totaled approximately $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to approximately $3.6 million for the same period in 2020, an increase of approximately 16.9%.

    For the first quarter of 2021, general and administrative expenses were approximately $2.3 million compared to approximately $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2020, an increase of approximately 25.2%.

    About Eyenovia, Inc.

    Eyenovia, Inc. (NASDAQ: EYEN) is a clinical stage ophthalmic company developing a pipeline of advanced therapeutics based on its proprietary microdose array print (MAP™) platform technology. Eyenovia is currently focused on the late-stage development of medications for presbyopia, myopia progression and mydriasis. For more Information, visit www.eyenovia.com.

    About MicroLine for Presbyopia

    MicroLine is a pharmacologic treatment for presbyopia. Presbyopia is the non-preventable, age related hardening of the lens, which causes a gradual loss of the eye’s ability to focus on nearby objects and is estimated to affect nearly 113 million Americans. Current treatment options are typically device-based, such as reading glasses and contact lenses. Pilocarpine ophthalmic solution is known to constrict the pupil and improve near-distance vision by creating an extended depth of focus through its small aperture effect. Eyenovia believes that its administration of pilocarpine using the Company’s high precision microdosing technology could provide a meaningful improvement in near vision while enhancing tolerability and usability.

    About MicroPine for Progressive Myopia

    MicroPine (atropine ophthalmic solution) is Eyenovia’s investigational, potentially first-in-class topical treatment for the reduction of pediatric myopia progression, also known as nearsightedness, in children ages 3-12. It has been developed for comfort and ease-of-use in children, and its microdose administration is designed to potentially result in low systemic and ocular drug exposure.   MicroPine has been licensed to Bausch Health Companies, Inc. in the United States and Canada, and Arctic Vision (Hong Kong) Limited in Greater China and South Korea.

    About MicroStat (MyCombi™) for Mydriasis

    MydCombi is Eyenovia's first-in-class fixed-combination micro-formulation product (tropicamide 1% - phenylephrine 2.5%) candidate for pharmacologic mydriasis (eye dilation), which is targeted to improve the efficiency of the estimated 80 million office-based comprehensive eye exams performed every year in the United States, as well as the estimated 4 million pharmacologic mydriasis applications for cataract surgery. Developed for use without anesthetic, Eyenovia is developing MicroStat to help improve the efficacy and tolerability of pharmacologic mydriasis.

    About Optejet® and Microdose Array Print (MAP™) Therapeutics

    Eyenovia's Optejet microdose formulation and delivery platform for ocular therapeutics uses high-precision piezo-print technology to deliver 6-8 μL of drug, consistent with the capacity of the tear film of the eye. We believe the volume of ophthalmic solution administered with the Optejet is less than 75% of that delivered using conventional eyedroppers, thus reducing overdosing and exposure to drug and preservatives. Eyenovia's patented microfluidic ejection technology is designed for fast and gentle ocular surface delivery, where solution is dispensed to the ocular surface in approximately 80 milliseconds, beating the ocular blink reflex. Successful use of the Optejet has been demonstrated more than 85% of the time after basic training in a variety of clinical settings compared to 40 – 50% with conventional eyedroppers. Additionally, its smart electronics and mobile e-health technology are designed to track and enhance patient compliance.
