QLT reports initial proof of concept data for punctal plug delivery technology
Date:5/12/2008

oday are an early indication that QLT's drug elution technology has the potential to provide a meaningful therapeutic benefit. To generate proof of concept data for the Company's proprietary punctal plug drug delivery system, QLT is currently enrolling patients in the CORE study, a Phase 2, randomized, double blind trial to assess the safety and efficacy of its latanoprost punctal plug delivery system for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension at three different doses (low, medium, high). The medium dose of latanoprost in the CORE Study was used in the trial that is being reported today.
