XIPERE Market Summary

Key Factors Driving XIPERE Growth

1. First FDA-Approved Suprachoroidal Therapy for Uveitic Macular Edema

• A major growth driver for XIPERE is its first-in-class status. In October 2021, the therapy became the first and only treatment approved in the US for delivering medication into the suprachoroidal space to treat macular edema associated with non-infectious uveitis.
• This delivery route allows targeted drug placement between the sclera and choroid, enabling higher drug concentrations at the retina while potentially reducing exposure to other ocular structures.
• Being the first commercial therapy using this technology gives XIPERE a significant competitive advantage and early market penetration, particularly among retinal specialists seeking alternatives to conventional intravitreal steroid injections.

2. Large Addressable Patient Population

Uveitis represents a significant cause of vision impairment worldwide. Epidemiological estimates indicate that:

• Approximately 350,000 patients in the United States suffer from uveitis.
• More than 1 million patients globally are affected.
• Roughly one-third of these patients develop uveitic macular edema (UME), the main indication for XIPERE.

Macular edema is the leading cause of vision loss in Uveitis Patients, making effective treatment essential for preserving vision. The increasing incidence of autoimmune disorders and inflammatory eye diseases is expected to expand the patient pool eligible for therapies like XIPERE.

3. Strong Market Growth in the Uveitis Treatment Segment

The overall uveitis treatment market is expanding steadily due to improved diagnosis, aging populations, and advances in targeted ocular therapies.

• The US uveitis treatment market was projected to reach around USD 550 million by 2024.
• Globally, the market is expected to exceed USD 1 billion.
• Broader analyses suggest the global uveitis treatment market could grow from about USD 2.3 billion in 2023 to USD 4.5 billion by 2032.

As a differentiated therapy addressing a major complication of uveitis, XIPERE is well positioned to capture a share of this expanding ophthalmology market.

4. Targeted Drug Delivery Technology Improving Clinical Outcomes

The proprietary SCS Microinjector® platform developed by Clearside Biomedical enables localized delivery of corticosteroids directly to the posterior segment of the eye.

Compared with conventional intravitreal injections, this approach offers potential advantages:

• Improved drug concentration at the retina and choroid
• Reduced exposure to anterior eye structures
• Potential reduction in steroid-related complications such as cataracts or elevated intraocular pressure

The adoption of advanced drug delivery technologies in ophthalmology is a major driver for physician adoption and long-term market growth.

5. Expanding Global Regulatory Approvals and Geographic Expansion

Another key growth driver is the ongoing geographic expansion of XIPERE approvals and commercialization partnerships.

Key milestones include:

• United States FDA approval (2021)
• Commercial launch in the US by Bausch + Lomb
• Health Canada approval in 2025

This global expansion into Asia-Pacific and other international markets could significantly increase the drug’s commercial reach.

XIPERE Market Recent Developments

• In July 2025, Clearside Biomedical, a biopharmaceutical company revolutionizing the delivery of therapies to the back of the eye through the suprachoroidal space (SCS®), announced that Health Canada has granted approval for XIPERE (triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension) for suprachoroidal use in the treatment of uveitic macular edema (UME).

XIPERE Drug Summary

XIPERE (triamcinolone acetonide injectable suspension) is an FDA-approved, sterile, preservative-free corticosteroid formulation (40 mg/mL) designed for suprachoroidal administration using the SCS Microinjector, targeting macular edema associated with uveitis. As a synthetic glucocorticoid, it acts primarily as a corticosteroid hormone receptor agonist, providing potent immunosuppressive and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting inflammatory mediators, reducing vascular permeability, and stabilizing the blood-retinal barrier to improve visual acuity and retinal thickness.

The recommended dose is 4 mg (0.1 mL) via single suprachoroidal injection, offering targeted posterior segment delivery with minimized systemic exposure compared to intravitreal or periocular routes, and it has demonstrated rapid efficacy, durable response up to 6 months, and a favorable safety profile in the Phase III TANZANITE trial.
