Keratoconus (KC) Overview
Keratoconus (KC) also known as the conical cornea, is an eye (ocular) disorder characterized by progressive thinning and changes in the shape of the cornea. The cornea is the thin, clear outer layer of the eye and is normally dome-shaped. Slowly progressive thinning of the cornea causes a cone-shaped bulge to develop towards the center of the cornea in the areas of greatest thinning. Affected individuals develop a blurry or distorted vision, sensitivity to light (photophobia), and additional vision problems. KC has different types based on the shape and location of the thinned cornea. These types include nipple, oval, keratoglobus, and D-shaped KC.
Generally, KC is first diagnosed in young people at puberty or in their late teens. The exact cause of KC is unknown. There are many theories based on research and its association with other conditions such as allergies and genetic causes; however, no one theory explains it all, and it may be caused by a combination of things.
In its earliest stages, KC is known to cause slight blurring and distortion of vision and increased sensitivity to glare and light; these symptoms usually appear in the late teens or early 20s. It may progress for 10-20 years and then slow in its progression. Each eye may be affected differently.
The specific underlying mechanism(s) responsible for KC are not fully understood. Most cases appear to occur randomly for unknown reasons (sporadically). However, a positive family history of KC has been established in some cases. Most researchers believe that multiple, complex factors are required for the development of KC, including both genetic and environmental factors.
Keratoconus (KC) Diagnosis
KC should be suspected in any patient with significant irregular astigmatism, especially if unstable and increasing over time. In the early stages of the disease, there is altered metabolic activity that may lead to biomechanical instability and stretching of the corneal tissues. As the disease progresses, there is accompanying tissue loss. In addition, there is a loss of correlation between the anterior and posterior corneal curvature. Progressive corneal thinning and distortion causes a conical or cone-shaped protrusion, which may be visible at the slit lamp in advanced cases. In early disease, the condition may go undiagnosed unless assessments of the posterior and anterior corneal surfaces are undertaken using corneal tomography.
KC may be diagnosed based upon a complete patient and family history and thorough eye examination. Such an examination may include evaluation of the external appearance of the eyes, visual acuity, eye movements, and visual fields; the use of a special, illuminated microscope that allows physicians to view the eye through high magnification (slit-lamp examination); and/or additional tests or procedures.
Various diagnostic techniques and procedures used for KC include:
Keratoconus (KC) Treatment
The initial treatment for keratoconus often consists of hard contact lenses. A variety of keratorefractive procedures have also been attempted, broadly divided into subtractive and additive techniques. Subtractive techniques include photorefractive keratectomy or laser in situ keratomileusis, although generally, the results of these techniques have been poor. Implantation of intrastromal corneal ring segments is an additive technique in which the implants are intended to reinforce the cornea, prevent further deterioration, and potentially obviate the need for penetrating keratoplasty. Penetrating keratoplasty (i.e., corneal grafting) is the last line of treatment. About 20% of patients with keratoconus will require corneal transplantation. All of these treatments attempt to improve refractive errors but are not disease-modifying.
However, keratoconus management has significantly changed over the last two decades. The advent of new interventions such as cornea cross-linking, intrastromal corneal ring segments and combined treatments provide corneal clinicians a variety of treatment options for the visual rehabilitation of keratoconus patients.
Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) has the potential to slow the progression of the disease. During CXL, in order to achieve a strengthening effect of corneal tissue and arrest keratoconus progression, the use of riboflavin (vitamin B2) is combined with ultraviolet A (UV-A) irradiation. Riboflavin plays the role of a photosensitizer in the photopolymerization process and when combined with UV-A irradiation increases the formation of intrafibrillar and interfibrillar carbonyl-based collagen covalent bonds through a molecular process that has still not been completely elucidated.
The disease epidemiology covered in the report provides historical as well as forecasted epidemiology segmented by Total Diagnosed Prevalent Population of Keratoconus (KC), Severity-specific Distribution of Keratoconus (KC) and Age-specific Distribution of Keratoconus (KC) in the 7MM market covering the United States, EU5 countries (Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and United Kingdom) and Japan from 2017 to 2030.

Ricrolin: Sooft Italia
Ricrolin is a hypotonic ophthalmic solution containing Ribofl¬avin (0.1%), specifically formulated to allow quick passage of Riboflavin into the corneal stroma, either through the healthy epithelium or after de-epithelization or even by using a low-intensity electrical field applied topically (iontophoresis). This solution, used on the eye, combined with an emitter of ultraviolet (UV-A) rays, is indicated for the conservative parasurgical treatment of the keratoconus and of corneal ectasia diseases. When administering Ricrolin using iontophoresis, the transepithelial riboflavin penetration, aided by the application of a low-intensity electric field, facilitates the corneal cross-linking operation by shortening absorption time, thereby reducing patient discomfort.

Keratoconus (KC) Emerging Drugs
IVMED-80: iVeena Delivery Systems
IVMED-80 is the first twice-daily, eye-drop, non-surgical, non-UV light treatment for medical crosslinking of the cornea. The drug, with its copper-based formulation, is reportedly the first eye drop designed to treat keratoconus (KC) without the need for adjunctive laser treatment or surgical intervention. IVMED-80's mechanism of action centers on enhancing the activity of lysyl oxidase (LOX) - the enzyme responsible for corneal collagen crosslinking, and also known to be associated with KC and copper, which is a co-factor of LOX, is the active ingredient of the drug. In February 2019, the company announced the commencement of a 36 patient phase I/IIa pilot clinical study for the treatment of mild and moderate KC (IVMED-80) and presented an abstract of the trial in the 2020 ARVO Annual Meeting.
Product details in the report…
According to the Cornea Research Foundation of America, Keratoconus (KCN) is a disease characterized by thinning and protrusion of the cornea, resulting in an irregular, conical shape. Irregular astigmatism occurs as the KC progresses, and results in blurred vision, which can be impossible to correct with spectacles. Usually, keratoconus occurs in both eyes, and involves the central cornea with the apex of the cone just below the visual axis. Approximately 50-200 of every 100,000 people are afflicted with KC. In the US, a study found a prevalence of 54.5 per 100,000 people.
The current treatment option includes the use of cornea cross-linking, intrastromal corneal ring segments, and other combined treatments, which provide the corneal clinicians a variety of treatment options for the visual rehabilitation of KC patients. In the mildest form of keratoconus, eyeglasses or soft contact lenses are preferred. But as the disease progresses and the cornea thins and becomes increasingly more irregular in shape, glasses and regular soft contact lens designs no longer provide adequate vision correction. The treatment of progressive KC includes corneal collagen cross-linking or CXL, custom soft contact lenses, gas permeable contact lenses, "Piggy backing", contact lenses, Hybrid contact lenses, Scleral and semi-scleral lenses, Prosthetic lenses, Topography-guided conductive keratoplasty (CK), and corneal transplant.
In addition to these therapies, the US FDA has approved Avedro's Photrexa and Photrexa Viscous photoenhancers indicated for use with the KXL System in corneal collagen cross-linking for the treatment of patients with progressive KC and post-LASIK ectasia. Although the EMA does not approve this therapy; however, it was used in Europe way before its FDA approval in April 2016 as a CE marked product.
Cross-linking is approved by the FDA for halting the progression of KC. Once the condition progresses, FDA has approved Intacs or a cornea transplant as more advanced treatment options. Crosslinking utilizes riboflavin drops (Vitamin B2) and ultraviolet light, which interact with the corneal tissue to create "cross-links" between corneal proteins. This strengthens the cornea, which is weak in keratoconus, to decrease KC progression.
In addition to standard riboflavin formulations comparable to the US FDA-approved ophthalmic solutions, a variety of modified riboflavin formulations are in use in regions outside the United States and are regulated under the CE Mark in the European Union. These formulations have not been evaluated by the US FDA and are not approved for sale in the United States. These formulations include the Avedro's family of CE marked riboflavin (VibeX Xtra, VibeX Rapid, ParaCel, MedioCROSS TE, MedioCROSS M, MedioCROSS D, and MedioCROSS H), Lightmed's Collagex riboflavin (vitamin B2) family of products which includes- Collagex-Isotonic, Collagex-Hypotonic, Collagex-Trans-Epithelial (TE), Collagex-Rapid, and Collagex-Plus and Sooft Italia's Ricrolin.
Other than these CE marked products that are being marketed in Europe, Peschke Riboflavin is also available in the European market. These solutions are also available in different formulations, namely Peschke TE, Peschke M, Peschke D, Peschke H, and Peschke L.. These Peschke Riboflavin solution formulations are used in conjunction with the PXL Platinum 330 system.
The current pipeline holds a major unmet need for the novel and potential emerging therapy. The emerging emerging-market holds IVMED-80, which is under development by iVeena Delivery Systems to treat KC without the need for adjunctive laser treatment or surgical intervention. The drug is in phase I/II clinical-developmental trial.
