Experimental antibody takes aim at eye inflammation
NCT ID NCT07218770
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called REGN7041 in 72 people with active noninfectious uveitis, a condition causing inflammation inside the eye. The drug is an antibody designed to calm the immune system. Since this is the first time it's tested in humans, the main goal is to check safety and side effects. Researchers will also measure drug levels in blood and eye fluid, and see if the body makes antibodies against the drug.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- REGN7041 (an experimental antibody that targets immune cells)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with active noninfectious uveitis, potentially reducing eye inflammation without infection risk.
- What could go wrong
- This is a first-in-human study, so safety and effectiveness are unknown. The drug may cause side effects or not work as hoped. Results are early and may not apply to all patients.

Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. Diagnosis of non-infectious anterior, intermediate, posterior or panuveitis (For anterior uveitis, there must be evidence of inflammation affecting the posterior segment), as defined in the protocol 2. Active disease at baseline, as defined in the protocol 3. Part A only: Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) of ≤65 and \>10 Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study (ETDRS) letters (Snellen equivalent of worse than or equal to 20/50 and better than 20/630) at the screening visit and on day 1 4. Part B only: BCVA of \<75 and \>10 ETDRS letters (Snellen equivalent of worse than 20/32 and better than 20/630) at the screening visit and on day 1 Key Exclusion Criteria: 1. BCVA of ≤30 ETDRS letters (Snellen equivalent of 20/250 or worse) at the screening visit and/or on day 1 2. Intraocular Pressure (IOP) \<5 mm Hg at the screening visit and/or on day 1 3. IOP \>25 mm Hg on day 1. Participants are permitted to take IOP-lowering eye drops 4. Confirmed or suspected infectious uveitis, as defined in the protocol NOTE: Other Protocol-Defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria Apply
