In need to develop drug treatments: (1) the formulation of Message Great Expectations for Santen in Development of Dry Eye Treatment in Europe For over 20 years, I have observed how symptoms accompanying dry eye disease affect the QOL of many of my patients. In Europe, the main treatment for dry eye disease has been tear substi- tutes. However, there has been no effective drug to treat the severe keratitis that accompanies dry eye. Many of these patients have suffered from this condition for years. Ikervis entering the market brings a treatment of the severe keratitis with dry eye, which has not improved despite treatment with tear substitutes. We have high expectations that Santen’s original Novasorb technology used in Ikervis will strengthen application to the surface of the eye as well as be effective in protecting and healing. Dry eye disease is caused by a variety of reasons, including Sjögren’s syndrome2 and meibomian Christophe Baudouin, M.D., Ph.D. gland dysfunction. Further, the illness mechanism differs from one disease to another.

Annual Report 2015 Research and Development guidelines that promote the appropriate diagnosis and treatment of dry eye, and (2) the sharing of patient feedback and information about treatment conditions and other topics. Santen is taking many different initiatives to address these themes. One example is the project by dry eye specialists, where Santen indirectly supports activities designed to set common diagnostic criteria across various countries with different healthcare environments. Another example is the initiative to understand the actual situations faced by dry eye patients in Europe, contribute to the development of dry eye treatment, and provide such feedback to ophthalmologists. In these and other ways, Santen has implemented activities in collaboration with healthcare professionals. Notably, these activities have revealed that it can take a long time for many patients to receive the correct diagnosis. This indicates that dry eye is having a huge impact on the Quality of Life (QOL) of patients. Santen is also taking other steps to help improve patients’ QOL. For example, to ensure that ophthalmologists understand the actual views of patients and their needs, Santen is creating forums to stimulate dialogue between ophthalmologists and dry eye patients at ophthalmological society meetings. Santen is also financially supporting the launch of patient-group websites in Europe. We Are Overjoyed by the Development of a Much Awaited Medication Dry eyes can make our personal, social and professional lives very uncomfortable. Air-conditioning is everywhere—trains, planes, restaurants, offices, theaters, supermarkets—and unbearable for our eyes. Wind and draughts make our eyes red and burn. The pain can be constant, 24 hours a day. I am chairwoman of an association dedicated to supporting and helping patients with Sjögren’s syndrome and other ailments causing dry eye to better understand these diseases and to overpass worsening external factors. We have been waiting for years to have access to a pharmaceutical ocular ciclosporin for severe dry eye treatment. We hope Ikervis will be accessible at the pharmacy next door and not only at a hospital far from home. And even more importantly, we expect it will decrease the frequency and intensity of keratitis and related pain.
