ISTA Pharmaceuticals Announces Preliminary Results of T-Pred Studies

Date:9/8/2009

ios during all time points measured. Although T-Pred's prednisolone concentrations in this study were similar to those of the reference product, bioequivalence was not demonstrated. ISTA believes differences in the prednisolone reference product, which included a higher drug concentration in the formulation and a recent change in the reference product commercial product delivery dose, may have contributed to the variations in study results between the two products.

ISTA is discussing the study results with the FDA to determine the best path forward for T-Pred. The Company is working with the FDA to determine the appropriate clinical study or studies to perform in lieu of an additional prednisolone bioequivalence study, although no further clinical studies are planned before 2010.
