Brief Summary: Primary Objective To evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy (healing) of OXERVATE® 0.002% (20 mcg/mL) cenegermin-bkbj ophthalmic solution in Stage 1 neurotrophic keratitis (NK) patients who enrolled in the DEFENDO study. Secondary Objective To evaluate the long-term efficacy of OXERVATE® 0.002% (20 mcg/mL) cenergemin-bkbj ophthalmic solution in terms of corneal sensitivity, Schirmer I test, tear film break-up time (TFBUT), best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA), and quality of life at 24 and 30 months post-treatment
Detailed Description: NGF0122 (DEFENDO Long-Term Follow-up) study was a Phase 4, multicenter, open label, long-term follow-up study evaluating safety and efficacy in the patients with Stage 1 Neurotrophic Keratitis (NK) who were enrolled in the NGF0120 (original DEFENDO) study and were treated with OXERVATE® 0.002% (20 mcg/mL) cenegermin-bkbj ophthalmic solution for up to 8 weeks in the NGF0120. After completing enrollment in the NGF0120 Study, patients were invited to enter the NGF0122 Study (all standard of care permitted) in which two additional long-term follow-up visits occurred at 24- and 30-months post-treatment to evaluate long-term clinical outcomes. In the NGF0122, study patients enrolled in the NFG0120 study were evaluated starting from week 8, which corresponds to the end of treatment of the NGF0120 study and is to be considered as the baseline of the NGF0122 study itself. Patients were treated per standard of care including additional OXERVATE® 0.002% if deemed appropriate by the Investigator.
