Omidenepag isopropyl, a prodrug, is hydrolyzed in the eye to the active form (Omidenepag) which functions as a selective, nonprostaglandin, prostanoid EP2 agonist, has been developed by Ube Industries and Santen Pharmaceutical as an ophthalmic solution (EYBELIS®) for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Omidenepag isopropyl increases the outfow of aqueous humor via both the uveoscleral outfow and the trabecular outfow pathways, resulting in potent and stable reduction in intraocular pressure (IOP). In September 2018, omidenepag isopropyl ophthalmic solution 0.002% was approved in Japan for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. On September 22, 2022, the FDA approved Santen’s Omlonti (omidenepag isopropyl), for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
