First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial tested an experimental eye drop called STSP-0902 in 82 healthy volunteers to see if it is safe and how the body processes it. The study involved single and multiple doses, with some participants getting a placebo. The goal is to eventually treat neurotrophic keratitis, a rare condition where the cornea loses feeling and can get damaged.
