EyePoint Slips on Clinical Banana Peel
Well, if EyePoint was aiming for a splash, they sure got it—just not the kind they were hoping for. News dropped like a lead balloon when EyePoint announced their Phase 3 DURAVYU trial results for wet age-related macular degeneration, revealing they missed their primary endpoint. And what did that mean for their stock? A death dive, down over 66%. Investors didn't take this one sitting down.
