Brief Summary: This is a pilot study to measure levels of albumin and inflammatory cytokines including Transforming Growth Factor-Beta TGF-β and Interleukin-1 Beta IL-1β in the aqueous humor of post-operative proliferative vitreoretinopathy patients receiving subcutaneous injections of HP Acthar an adrenocorticotropic hormone ACTH analog The study will be conducted at the Wilmer Eye Institute Johns Hopkins Hospital A total of 15 patients will be enrolled and randomized 21 to HP Acthar or standard of care Treatment duration will be 8 weeks and study duration will be 12 weeks There will be a total of 7 study visits baseline day of surgery post-operative day 1 week 1 week 4 week 8 and week 12

Subjects will self-administer subcutaneous injections of 80 units of HP Acthar starting on post-operative day 1 for twice a week until week 8 Subjects in the control arm will be managed per the standard of care Aqueous samples will be obtained at the onset of surgery 1 day 1 week and 8 weeks after surgery Aqueous levels of albumin and inflammatory cytokines including TGF-β and IL-1β will be measured at each time point
