New drug combo aims to slow diabetic retinopathy
NCT ID NCT07230184
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed Phase 4 trial tested whether adding a second drug (B55R2) to standard treatment (B55R1) works better for people with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, an early stage of diabetic eye disease. 52 adults with mild to severe disease took either the combination or B55R1 alone twice daily for 24 weeks. The main goal was to see if hard exudates (fatty deposits in the eye) improved by at least one grade.

What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could offer a better way to reduce hard exudates and control diabetic retinopathy progression.

This is a small, completed Phase 4 trial with only 52 participants. Results may not apply to all patients, and the benefit over existing treatment may be modest.
