Prcis: No significant difference was found between the intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering of omidenepag isopropyl 0.002% once daily (QD) and twice daily (BID). However, adverse events (AEs) were higher in the BID arm; thus, QD dosing is the preferred dosing frequency for further investigation.

To investigate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effects of omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI), a potent and highly selective prostanoid EP2 receptor agonist, as a potential first-line ocular hypotensive agent when combined with existing antiglaucoma agents in conscious ocular normotensive monkeys. Male cynomolgus monkeys were examined under conscious conditions. OMDI ophthalmic solution alone was topically applied to an eye or combined with other ophthalmic solutions at 5-min intervals.

Design: Phase III, randomized, investigator-masked, active-controlled, parallel-group, noninferiority study (ClinicalTrials.govNCT02623738).
The present study investigated the effects of the antiglaucoma agent and selective E2 receptor agonist omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI) on eyelash growth in comparison with a prostaglandin analog (prostamide receptor agonist) in mice. Four-week-old female mice (C57BL/6J) were divided into 3 groups of = 10 each. The groups were administered 3 μL of 0.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFOmidenepag isopropyl (OMDI) is a prodrug of OMD, a selective, nonprostaglandin, prostanoid EP2 receptor agonist. This phase I study aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties, safety, and intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering efficacy of OMDI. Fourteen healthy male volunteers (7 Japanese and 7 Caucasian) 20-35 years of age received 1 drop of OMDI 0.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of omidenepag isopropyl, a selective EP2 agonist, and to determine the optimal dose for further investigation.
Purpose: To investigate the mechanism of the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect of a novel selective prostaglandin E2 receptor 2 (EP2) receptor agonist, omidenepag isopropyl (OMDI).
Methods: The effect of OMDI on IOP and aqueous humor dynamics was evaluated in cynomolgus monkeys with unilateral laser-induced ocular hypertension. In a crossover manner, the hypertensive eye of each monkey was dosed once daily with 20 μL of either 0.
