OCS Completes Randomization in Precision Medicine Trial for Dry Eye Disease
What happened
Oculis Holding AG (OCS) completed randomization in the PREDICT-1 genotype-based registrational trial of Licaminlimab for dry eye disease (DED). The trial enrolled 176 patients, and reports indicate that two-thirds of those patients carry the TNFR1 genetic variant linked to enhanced clinical response. OCS expects to report topline results around year-end 2026.
