Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults ≥18 with active non-infectious intermediate-, posterior-, or pan-uveitis, on stable prednisone therapy, and with prior adequate response to corticosteroids.

Probably not a fit

Patients with isolated anterior uveitis or specific ocular comorbidities may not benefit from this treatment.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This Phase 2 interventional trial compares GenSci048 to placebo in adults with active non-infectious uveitis. Eligible participants must have a history of uveitis for more than one year and remain on a stable prednisone dose, ensuring prior response to corticosteroids. The study focuses on safety and efficacy over a defined treatment period, with outcomes assessed against a placebo control. Enrollment is at a single center in Shanghai, sponsored by Changchun GeneScience Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, GenSci048 could reduce uveitis activity and help patients control inflammation with fewer symptoms.

How similar studies have gone: Previous approaches in similar inflammatory eye conditions have shown signals of benefit with targeted therapies, but results in this exact agent are not yet established.

3. Must have active disease at the baseline visit while receiving a stable dose of oral prednisone maintenance therapy for at least 2 weeks;
4. Must have demonstrated a prior adequate response to oral corticosteroid therapy (equivalent of oral prednisone up to 1 mg/kg/day), as judged by the investigator;
5. No intention to become pregnant and willingness to use highly effective contraception during the study and for 24 weeks after the last dose of study drug;
