INSITE VISION ANNOUNCES AZASITE TRIAL DATA

March 14, 2006

InSite Vision has announced top-line results from the second of two required Phase III clinical trials to evaluate the safety and efficacy of AzaSite (1.0 percent azithromycin solution in DuraSite) anti-infective eye drops in patients with bacterial conjunctivitis.

In a study to show superiority of AzaSite relative to vehicle, patients treated with AzaSite had a significantly higher clinical resolution rate, the trial's primary efficacy end point and a significantly higher bacterial eradication rate, a secondary end point, than those receiving placebo. Importantly, the study also showed that AzaSite was safe and well-tolerated.
