Study of Safety and Tolerability of EO2002 in the Treatment of Corneal Edema

The study is designed to occur in 2 groups. The objective with the first group is to preliminarily evaluate the safety of 4 escalating doses. The purpose of the second group is to gather additional safety information on the 3 highest doses when administered according to a randomized schedule and evaluated by masked observers. Group 1: Phase 1 prospective, multi-center, open-label, dose-escalation study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of EO2002 with and without endothelial brushing (EB) or Descemet Stripping (DS) in eyes with corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction that qualify for surgery involving full-thickness corneal transplantation or EK. Four doses will be studied in approximately 21 study participants that meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria. Safety and tolerability will be the primary focus for 26 weeks following treatment with EO2002. Group 2: The three highest doses will be administered to up to 21 subjects in a randomized, double-masked design.
