KDR2-2, as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has a strong inhibitory effect on VEGFR2 and a moderate inhibitory effect on PDGFR-β. It can be used for the treatment of corneal neovascularization. The main purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of KDR2-2 suspension eye drops in the treatment of corneal neovascularization. This study is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled clinical study. A total of 60 patients with corneal neovascularization were enrolled in this study, and they were randomly divided into 4 groups, including the control group, the KDR2-2 low-concentration (4mg/ml) group, the medium-concentration (10mg/ml) group, and the high-concentration (20mg/ml) group, with 15 subjects in each group. The control group applied 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops, and the test groups applied KDR2-2 suspension eye drops with 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops. Patients applied KDR2-2 eye drops four times daily for 6 weeks and were followed up to 10 weeks. The follow-up time points were baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal. Relevant ophthalmological examinations (including visual acuity, intraocular pressure, slit lamp microscopy, central corneal thickness measurement, corneal fluorescein staining assessment, corneal sensitivity measurement, corneal confocal microscope examination, and anterior segment and fundus photography) are performed at each time. And the ocular tolerability score and adverse events of each patient were recorded. By comparative analysis, the efficacy and safety of KDR2-2 eye drops in the treatment of corneal neovascularization were evaluated.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Control group | No Intervention | Patients in the control group received 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops (0.1% fluorometholone + 0.05% tacrolimus eye drops for patients after corneal transplantation). The patients applied 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops 4 times daily for 10 weeks. Patients were instructed to continue with their usual ophthalmic medication regimens, such as topical antibacterial and antiviral drugs. | |
| Low-concentration group | Experimental | Patients in the low-concentration group applied 4mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eye drops 4 times daily for 6 weeks. The rest of the medication regimen is the same as the control group. |
|
| Medium-concentration group | Experimental | Patients in the medium-concentration group applied 4mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eye drops 4 times daily for 6 weeks. The rest of the medication regimen is the same as the control group. |
|
| High-concentration group | Experimental | Patients in the High-concentration group applied 4mg/ml KDR2-2 suspension eye drops 4 times daily for 6 weeks. The rest of the medication regimen is the same as the control group. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| the changes of the size and extent of corneal neovascularization | The efficacy of KDR2-2 eye drops treatment on corneal neovascularization was evaluated by comparing corneal anterior segment photographs acquired at baseline with photographs acquired on the follow-up visits. Size and extent of CNV was investigated by four primary metrics: (1) neovascular area ratio, the ration of the area of the neovascularization to the area of the cornea, (2) vessel length (VL), the total length of the vessels projected into the cornea, (3) vessel caliber, the mean diameter of the corneal vessels, and (4) Corneal neovascularization progression/stabilization/regression rate | Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| the changes of visual acuity | The uncorrected visual acuity and best corrected visual acuity were assessed through ETDRs chart at baseline and all the follow-up visits. The alterations in visual acuity were evaluated in all patients. | Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |

| the changes of intraocular pressure |
The intraocular pressure of the patients was assessed by iCARE at baseline and all the follow-up visits. The alterations of intraocular pressure were evaluated. |
| Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the changes of central corneal thickness | The central corneal thickness was assessed by anterior segment OCT at baseline and all the follow-up visits. The alterations in central corneal thickness were evaluated. | Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the changes of conjunctival hyperemia score | The conjunctival hyperemia score was assessed by severity from 0 (no signs of conjunctival hyperemia) to 3 (serious conjunctival hyperemia) by the clinician at baseline and all the follow-up visits.The changes of conjunctival hyperemia score were evaluated. | Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the changes of corneal fluorescein staining score | The corneal fluorescein staining score was assessed by NEI grading system by the clinician at baseline and all the follow-up visits.The NEI grading system divides the cornea into 5 zones: central, superior, temporal, nasal, and inferior. For each zone, the amount of corneal fluorescein staining is graded on a scale of 0 to 3: 0=normal or negative slit-lamp findings; 1=milder superfacial stippling; 2=moderate or punctate staining, including superfacial abrasion of the cornea; and 3=severe abrasion or corneal erosion, deep corneal abrasion, or recurrent erosion. The alterations in corneal fluorescein staining score were evaluated. | Baseline, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication, and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the changes of corneal sensation | The corneal sensation was assessed through Cochet-Bonnet aesthesiometer by the clinician at baseline and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal. The corneal sensation was assessed at five points on the cornea, including the central, superior, temporal, nasal, and inferior points. | Baseline and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the morphological changes of corneal subepithelial nerve | In vivo confocal laser scanning microscopy was performed by the clinician at baseline and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal. The density and length of the corneal subepithelial nerve were analysed. | Baseline and 4 weeks after drug withdrawal |
| the changes of ocular tolerability score | Ocular tolerability score (including ocular tolerability, burning sensation, pain, itching and blurred vision) was assessed by severity from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe) by questionnaire. | 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks after medication |
