Therapy for severe uveitis is frequently long-term immunosuppression using systemic corticosteroids and cytotoxic agents, but side effects make long-term therapy difficult. A long-term (>4 year) Phase I/II single armed interventional study using intravenous anti-IL-2 receptor alpha treatments (daclizumab) and a short-term Phase II study evaluating the use of a subcutaneous daclizumab formulation were conducted. Patients were tapered off their systemic immunosuppressive therapy and received daclizumab infusions or subcutaneous injections at intervals varying from 2 to 6 weeks. In the long-term study, seven of ten enrolled patients were tapered from their original immunosuppressive medications and maintained exclusively on repeated daclizumab infusions for control of their uveitis for over 4 years. No patient was permanently removed from therapy for an adverse event ascribed to the medication. The use of 6-week infusion intervals led to recurrence of uveitis, while 2- to 4-week intervals did not. Only one patient developed measurable anti-daclizumab antibodies but this disappeared when subcutaneous therapy was begun. In the short-term study, four of the five patients receiving the subcutaneous formulation met the study endpoints for success within the first 12 weeks. All five were successful by 26 weeks. These studies provide preliminary evidence that regularly administered long-term daclizumab therapy can be given in lieu of standard immunosuppression for years to treat severe uveitis and that subcutaneously administered daclizumab appeared to be a clinically viable treatment strategy. These studies suggest that anti-IL-2 receptor blockade could be useful in the treatment of Th1-mediated autoimmune conditions.
