EyeGate Pharmaceuticals reported a $3.823 million net loss for the second quarter of 2016, compared with a $1.541 million net loss in the second quarter of 2015.

The increased loss was primarily due to expenses related to clinical trials of EGP-437 for treatment of anterior uveitis and of EGP-437 for treatment of inflammation and pain after cataract surgery, as well as continued development of EyeGate Ocular Bandage Gel, according to a company press release.

Additionally, research and development expenses increased by $1.877 million to a total of $2.482 million over the second quarter of 2015. General and administrative expenses also increased to $1.579 million compared with $939,000 in the second quarter of 2015.
