Clinical development for a
future beyond daily drops

Positive results for the BIM-IOL System

The SpyGlass BIM-IOL System is being evaluated through preclinical and clinical trials designed to assess long-term drug delivery, safety, efficacy and durability.* Positive results from multiple clinical trials demonstrate the system’s potential to deliver sustained bimatoprost therapy and maintain visual outcomes comparable to conventional cataract surgery.1,2
In vitro long-term

In vitro long-term release trial*

Objective: Evaluate bimatoprost release from the BIM-IOL System in vitro.1

Results: Data demonstrated consistent daily release of bimatoprost for more than 3 years, confirming the system's ability to provide sustained, predictable dosing over
multi-year periods.1

First-in-Human

First-in-Human (FIH) clinical trial

Objective: Assess the safety and efficacy of the BIM-IOL System containing 75 mcg, 150 mcg, and 300 mcg of bimatoprost.1

Enrollment: Completed June 2022.1

  • Single-center, ex-US prospective trial designed to assess safety and efficacy of the BIM-IOL System in patients with OAG or OHT undergoing cataract surgery
    • 23 patients previously on 1 to 3 topical IOP-lowering medications enrolled following a baseline 
 medication washout period
    • Participants assigned 1:1:1 to receive the BIM-IOL System containing 75 mcg, 150 mcg, or 300 mcg of bimatoprost
    • BIM-IOL System implanted at the time of cataract surgery
    • Multiple time points of follow-up, including at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 36 months. Patients will 
continue to be followed through 7 years
  • Primary efficacy endpoints (assessed at each follow-up time-point):
    • Topical glaucoma medication use
    • IOP reduction from baseline
  • Primary safety endpoints:
    • Best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA)
    • Adverse event (AE) assessment and slit-lamp examinations
    • Endothelial cell density measurement at 12 months

Key efficacy results at 36 months:

⁨37%

mean IOP reduction across all dose groups2

⁨95%

of evaluable patients off all topical IOP-lowering medications2

⁨100%

of evaluable patients achieved BCDVA 20/302

No significant differences in IOP reduction among dose groups2
Mean IOP Reduction Sustained Through 36 Months Across All Doses3

Two subjects were discontinued prior to the 36-month visit: 1 subject withdrew consent after moving outside the country and 1 subject was discontinued after receiving a pancreatic cancer diagnosis and was undergoing palliative care.

Phase 12 Clinical Trial

Phase 1/2 Clinical Trial

Objective: Compare safety and IOP-lowering efficacy of two BIM-IOL System doses (39 mcg and 78 mcg) versus timolol maleate 0.5% in patients with OAG or OHT undergoing cataract surgery.1
Enrollment: Completed November 2024; 12-month interim data reported March 2026.1,4
  • Prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-masked, controlled trial conducted in patients with OAG or OHT undergoing cataract surgery
  • 104 patients enrolled and randomized in a 2:1:1 ratio into 3 treatment groups:
    • BIM-IOL System (78 mcg) and daily artificial tears
    • BIM-IOL System (39 mcg) and daily artificial tears
    • Timolol: monofocal IOL + topical timolol maleate 0.5% twice daily
  • All patients underwent baseline washout of IOP-lowering medications
  • Follow-up visits conducted at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and 3 months, with continued observation planned through 36 months
  • Primary endpoint: Time-matched mean IOP reduction from baseline at Week 2, Week 6, and Month 3
    • IOP measurements taken at 2 time points per visit (8 AM and 10 AM)
  • Secondary endpoints:
    • Mean IOP reduction from baseline
    • Mean IOP time to reintroduction and number of IOP-lowering medications
    • Proportion of eyes achieving BCDVA 20/40 at Months 3, 6, and 12
  • Safety assessments:
    • AEs related to IOL implantation and PGA use
    • Endothelial cell density
    • Findings from slit-lamp examination
    • Patient-reported quality of vision

No serious ocular AEs were observed4

Phase 3 Clinical Trials

We have initiated two identical, registrational, Phase 3 clinical trials to evaluate and compare IOP-lowering efficacy, BCDVA outcomes, and safety of the BIM-IOL System (78 mcg) versus standard of care in patients with OAG or OHT undergoing cataract surgery. Participants will be followed through 36 months, allowing us to compare long-term safety, efficacy, and durability. Each trial is expected to enroll approximately 400 patients across 45 clinical sites.1*
  • Two parallel prospective, multicenter, randomized, masked, controlled Phase 3 trials designed to support regulatory submission
  • Both trials were designed to demonstrate noninferiority of the BIM-IOL System compared to the standard of care (monofocal IOL + timolol)
  • Each trial will enroll approximately 400 patients across 45 clinical sites in the US, New Zealand, and Asia
  • Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive either:
    • BIM-IOL System (78 mcg)
       and artificial tears
    • Surgeon's choice of monofocal IOL with daily topical timolol maleate 0.5% twice daily
  • All patients will undergo a baseline washout of IOP-lowering medications prior to surgery and receive treatment in the study eye

Identical Design for Each of the Two Phase 3 Clinical Trials (SGP-005 and SGP-006)

  • Co-primary endpoints:
    • Time-matched mean IOP change from baseline (8 AM and 10 AM measurements)
      at 2 weeks, 6 weeks, and
       3 months
    • BCDVA of 20/40 or better
      at 12 months
  • Secondary endpoint:
    • IOP change from baseline
    • Time to postoperative introduction of IOP-lowering medications
    • Number of IOP-lowering medications introduced postoperatively
  • Trial duration:
    • Participants will be followed through 36 months to assess long-term safety, efficacy, and durability of IOP control
