Advantage of AH-201-DE :
1.
Dry eye is an aging process of lacrimal gland of eye which is well recognized recently.
2.
AH-201-DE is the first small molecule through antiaging approach for dry eye drug discovery.
3.
AH-201-DE is an endogenous EPO inducer for activating mitochondria biogenesis and hemoglobin production in lacrimal gland.
4.
So far, no effective therapy for dry eye, AH-201-DE can expand the global market for dry eye.
5.
We are on-going the pre-IND meeting to TFDA.
 
Global market for dry eye
 
 
Transparency Market Research(2018,Jan)
estimates that the dry eye disease market will expand at a CAGR of 4.5% over the forecast period between 2017 and 2025. Escalating at this pace, the market, which had a valuation of US$ 5 billion in 2016 in terms of revenue, is projected to rise to US$ 7,780.0 Mn by 2025.

Takeda is offloading dry-eye drug Xiidra to Novartis for up to $5.3 billion, including upfront cash $3.4 billion and milestone based follow-up payments in 2019. Novartis gives up on Xiidra‘s EU approval in 2020 June after EMA regulators there raised “major objections” that ” Specifically, the agency concluded that Xiidra hadn't proven effective across different symptoms of dry eye disease. the improvement was not considered clinically significant,”.
 
Xiidra (Lifitegrast) inhibits an integrin, LFA-1), from binding to ICAM-1. This mechanism down-regulates inflammation mediated by T lymphocytes.
