## What Ocular Therapeutix does

Ocular Therapeutix, Inc. is an integrated biopharmaceutical company focused on retinal disease and ophthalmic products. Its lead investigational product, AXPAXLI (OTX-TKI), is an axitinib intravitreal hydrogel based on its ELUTYX bioresorbable hydrogel technology. AXPAXLI is in a Phase 3 registrational program for wet age-related macular degeneration, known as the SOL program, and in a Phase 3 registrational program for diabetic retinal disease, including non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, known as the HELIOS program. The company's commercial product DEXTENZA, a drug-eluting intracanalicular insert, is approved by the FDA for ocular inflammation and pain following ophthalmic surgery and for ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis. The ELUTYX technology is also used in OTX-TIC, a travoprost intracameral hydrogel that completed a Phase 2 trial for open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The company is evaluating next steps for OTX-TIC. The exudative retinal disease market that AXPAXLI targets accounted for approximately $9.4 billion in U.S. annual estimated revenues in 2025, according to a third-party report. AffaMed Therapeutics Limited holds a license and collaboration for DEXTENZA and OTX-TIC in certain Asian geographies.
