The Uveitis market in the 7MM reached ~USD 1,468.66 million in 2022 and is expected to grow through 2034, driven by rising disease awareness, better diagnosis, and upcoming therapies. The US leads the market, contributing ~USD 759 million in 2022, supported by increasing prevalence and improved detection. Advances in imaging, drug delivery, diagnostics,“omics” technologies, and ocular immunology are deepening understanding of disease mechanisms. Current treatments include corticosteroids, immunomodulators, and, in severe cases, surgical options, though long-term side effects and lack of consensus guidelines remain challenges. Emerging therapies - TRS01, OCS-02, and vamikibart (RG6179) - are expected to shift the treatment landscape, with TRS01 potentially becoming the first nonsteroidal eye drop for noninfectious anterior uveitis.

Uveitis Overview
Uveitis is an inflammatory condition affecting the uveal tract of the eye, which includes the iris, ciliary body, and choroid. It can be caused by infections, autoimmune disorders, trauma, or remain idiopathic. Symptoms include eye pain, redness, blurred vision, light sensitivity, and floaters, and severe cases can lead to vision loss if untreated. Uveitis is classified into anterior, intermediate, posterior, and panuveitis based on the affected region. Diagnosis relies on clinical evaluation, imaging, and laboratory tests. Treatment typically involves corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, and biologics, while emerging therapies aim to reduce side effects and improve long-term disease control.

Uveitis is a severe intraocular inflammatory disease and a major global cause of preventable blindness, often affecting people in their most productive years. Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are critical to prevent complications and long-term vision loss. Treatment progresses from least to most aggressive options, including corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics, and surgery. Major marketed drugs include YUTIQ/ILUVIEN, HUMIRA, and XIPERE.
Uveitis Marketed Drugs
XIPERE: Clearside Biomedical/Bausch+Lomb
XIPERE, a triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension, is the first approved medicine delivery via injection for suprachoroidal use to treat macular edema associated with uveitis in the US. Delivering the medicine to the suprachoroidal space (SCS) allows targeted delivery of the therapy with low levels elsewhere in the eye.
YUTIQ/ILUVIEN: EyePoint Pharmaceuticals/Alimera Sciences
YUTIQ is a sterile nonbioerodible intravitreal implant with 0.18 mg fluocinolone acetonide. It releases the drug at an initial rate of 0.25 μg/day in a 36-month sustained-release drug delivery system. YUTIQ contains a corticosteroid and is indicated for treating chronic noninfectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye. It is preloaded into a single-dose applicator to facilitate the injection of the implant directly into the vitreous. It was approved by the US FDA in October 2018 and launched commercially in February 2019.
Uveitis Emerging Drugs
TRS01: Tarsier Pharma
TRS01, a lead product of Tarsier Pharmaceuticals, first in first-in-class topical immune modulator agent. Dazdotuftide (TRS) is a breakthrough platform technology for treating blinding ocular diseases. TRS was developed to 're-engineer' the immune system. The platform approaches inflammatory diseases from within the system. The technology can effectively treat various autoimmune and inflammatory ocular diseases. TRS01 is a polypeptide conjugate with a dual mechanism of action; the investigational agent induces anti-inflammatory macrophages and inhibits the nuclear factor-kB (Nf-kB) signaling pathway by toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4).
OCS-02 (licaminlimab): Oculis Pharma
OCS-02 (licaminlimab) is a single-chain antibody fragment (scFv) that binds to and neutralizes the activity of human TNFa, with a dual mechanism of action (MoA), anti-inflammation, and anti-necrosis. Unlike full-length monoclonal antibodies, scFv fragments can penetrate ocular surface tissues when used as eye drops due to the smaller molecule size giving it the potential to become the first approved topical biologic for DED (dry eye disease) (OCS-02 was previously known as LME636).
