Summary · why it matters

Bausch + Lomb will discontinue development of its glaucoma eye drop BL1107 after the candidate failed to meet its primary goal in a phase 2 study. The treatment did not lead to visual function improvements after 28 days, despite showing improvement in a smaller phase 1/2a study. The company will continue to pursue the asset as a sustained-release implant for geographic atrophy, with trials for that indication expected to start in 2028.
