Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This application is a continuation of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 892,849, filed August 28, 2019. The benefit of this application is claimed, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, as if set forth herein. No. 6,239,999, filed on Oct. 1, 2003, and incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [Background technology]

[0002] Thyroid eye disease (TED) is also known as thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), Graves' ophthalmopathy, or Graves' eye disease. Orbitopathy (GO), thyrotoxic exophthalmopathy, hypothyroid ophthalmopathy and several other Also known as TAO, it is a condition associated with thyroid dysfunction. Active TED usually lasts 1-3 years and is characterized by swelling in the soft tissues of the orbit. Active TED is characterized by an ongoing autoimmune / inflammatory response that affects the soft tissue within the eye. Involved in tissue swelling and remodeling. Autoimmune / inflammatory reaction in active or acute TED. Inactive TED or chronic TED is a term used to describe the long-term / permanent sequelae of active TED.

[0003] The cause of TED is unknown. TED is typically associated with Graves' hyperthyroidism. It is associated with thyroid disease, but can affect the thyroid gland, orbital and periorbital tissues, and rarely the pretibial bones. Other autoimmune disorders causing lesions on the skin (pretibial myxedema) or digits (thyroid acromegaly) It can also occur as part of a condition called TED, which primarily affects the orbital and periorbital soft tissues. TED is an autoimmune orbital disease that secondarily affects the eyes and vision. Inflammation and swelling of tissue (mainly eye muscles and fat) causes the eyeball to be pushed forward out of the socket. The eyes become bulging (protruding), a phenomenon called exophthalmos or proptosis.

[0004] One major rural Minnesota community-based study found that the annual incidence of TED was The incidence is estimated at 16 cases per 100,000 women and 2.9 cases per 100,000 men. It is 2.5 to 6 times more common in men than women, with a female predominance, although However, severe cases occur more frequently in men than in women. , 30-50 years old, and severe cases appear to be more frequent in patients over 50 years old. Most cases of TED do not result in vision loss, but the condition can cause visual impairment. Power-threatening lagophthalmos keratopathy, troublesome diplopia (double vision), and compressive thyroid optic neuropathy can occur. There is a possibility that it may be rubbed.

[0005] TED may precede, occur simultaneously with, or be associated with systemic complications of thyroid dysfunction. Ocular manifestations of TED include upper eyelid retraction, eyelid lag, swelling, Redness (erythema), conjunctivitis and swelling of the eyeball (exophthalmos or exophthalmos), conjunctival edema, periorbital edema, These include changes in eye movements and saccadic eye movements, which can have significant functional, social, and cosmetic consequences. is.

[0006] Many of the signs and symptoms of TED, including proptosis and intraocular congestion, are caused by orbital adipose tissue and periorbital This is due to the expansion of the muscles in the orbital fat. New fat cells are generated in the orbital fat (fat The volume of adipose tissue increases by the formation of adipose tissue between the orbital adipose tissue and extraocular muscle fibers. Accumulation of hydrophilic glycosaminoglycans, primarily hyaluronic acid, in the surrounding connective tissue This causes the fat compartment to expand further and the extraocular muscles to enlarge. and produced by fibroblasts present in the extraocular muscles, and its in vitro synthesis IL-1β, interferon-γ, platelet-derived growth factor, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and several cytokines and growth factors, including insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) Stimulated by.

[0007] TED is generally considered to be an autoimmune orbital manifestation of Graves' disease (GD). However, clinically relevant ocular lesions occur in the Graves' thyroid gland. Only about 30% of patients with hyperactivity have this condition, which is mechanistically distinct and discrepant between conditions. The molecular mechanism underlying TED remains unclear. The production of autoantibodies that function as agonists of the thyroid hormone receptor (TSHR) is a key factor in the development of Graves' disease. It is recognized that TSHR is involved in hyperthyroidism. When thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) are overproduced, the metabolism of many tissues is stimulated. This will be the case.

[0008] In active TED, autoantibodies induce swelling of connective tissue and fat. This is in part due to stimulating the over-synthesis of hyaluronan. The cells and B cells become infiltrated, causing inflammation and extensive remodeling. It has been suggested that they may have a similar pathogenic role in the development of dynamic TED. In fact, a positive correlation between anti-TSHR antibodies and the degree of TED activity was found. However, a definitive association has not been established, and some patients with TED The thyroid gland remains euthyroid throughout the course of the disease.

[0009] Antibodies that activate the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) have also been found. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, this reported that TSHR and IGF-IR form a physical and functional complex in orbital fibroblasts, and that I Blocking IGF-IR reduces both IGF-I and TSH-dependent signaling. Blocking IGF-IR using antibody antagonists This reduces both TSHR- and IGF-I-dependent signaling. thus preventing the pathological activity of autoantibodies that act as agonists of either receptor. It has been suggested that it can be harmful.

[0010] IGF-IR is a widely expressed IGF-1 receptor that is involved in regulating the growth and metabolic functions of many cell types. IGF-IR is a heterotetrameric protein consisting of two subunits, tyrosine kinase (TIK) and ATP. IGF-IRα is a kinase receptor that contains the ligand-binding domain, while IGF-IRα is a kinase receptor that binds to IGF-IRα. GF-IRβ is involved in signal transduction and contains tyrosine phosphorylation sites. Monoclonal antibodies against IR have been developed and are being used in several types of solid tumors and lymphomas. It is being evaluated as a treatment for lymphoma.

[0011] Treatment of Graves' hyperthyroidism involves identifying the underlying pathogenic autoimmune disorder. There is no treatment that targets the immune system, so it is not perfect. Moderate to severe activity The treatment of TED is becoming more complex. In recent years, its pathogenesis has become better understood. However, TED remains a therapeutic challenge and presents a therapeutic dilemma. There are no approved medications for treating TED. ) and oral glucocorticoids are used to treat patients with moderate to severe active TED. Although it has been used, satisfactory results have been scarce. Partial responses have occurred in many cases. It is not uncommon for adverse events to occur and ultimately, Many patients require rehabilitation surgery when their condition progresses to inactive TED. do.

[0012] Recently, the use of biological agents that can specifically mediate the pathogenic mechanisms of TED has become available. In 2015, two small-scale single-center randomized clinical trials (RCTs) The efficacy of rituximab (CD20+ B cell depletion) compared with placebo or ivGC, respectively, was The effects of antihistamines (antihistamines, anti ... The first test was negative (no difference from placebo), but the second test was positive (compared to ivGC). Therefore, rituximab for moderate to severe active TED was The effectiveness of the yroid Association / European Group on Grav The guidelines published by the European Union for Orbitopathy (EUGOGO) state: Rituximab is available as a second-line treatment for patients who have a poor response to an initial course of ivGC. Rituximab is also indicated. Adalimumab, etanercept, and inflammasomes are also indicated. Liximab or other potential therapeutic agents such as monoclonal antibodies or small molecules that block the TSH receptor There is no reliable evidence for current therapeutic agents. The use of tocilizumab, a monoclonal antibody, is also being evaluated based on the current RCT. It remains as it is without being cut off.

[0013] As mentioned above, it has been shown to be effective and safe in well-powered prospective placebo-controlled trials. There is no medical treatment for moderate to severe TED that has been proven to be safe. To date, most clinical trials have been placebo-controlled and have not included high-dose glucocorticoids. The use of cyclophosphamide alone or in combination with radiation therapy has been shown to improve inflammation-related outcomes in patients with active eye disease. It has been suggested that it may reduce signs and symptoms, but only minimally impacts breakouts, Dose-limiting adverse reactions may occur.

[0014] Immunoglobulins activate IGF-IR signaling in patients with GD and TED Furthermore, IGF-I synergistically enhances the activity of thyroid-stimulating hormone. IGF-IR is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor with roles in development and metabolism. and stimulate immune function, making them potential therapeutic targets in autoimmune diseases. GF-IR is expressed by orbital fibroblasts and T and B cells in patients with GD and TED. IGF-IR signals to TSHR by transactivating it. In vitro studies on orbital fibroblasts and fibrocytes showed that IGF-IR inhibitors Antibody toxins are IGF-I, thyroid-stimulating hormone, thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin, and GD and It has been shown that it can attenuate the activity of immunoglobulins isolated from TED patients. These observations support the efficacy of teprotumumab (completed) in patients with active moderate to severe TED. Fully human IGF-IR inhibitor monoclonal antibody) trials were promoted. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]

[0015] An effective amount of an insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF 1R) inhibitor is administered to treat thyroid eye disease (TE). D) treating or reducing the severity of TED, including administering to a subject having TED. and methods to achieve specific therapeutic endpoints in the treatment of TED, e.g., proptosis, diplopia, Methods for reducing TED clinical activity scores and subsets and individual measures thereof, and Provided herein are methods for improving the quality of life of patients with ED.

[0016] Specific IGF-1R inhibitors inhibit the production of TSHR and IGF by orbital fibroblasts and fibrocytes. -IR can be reduced, and IGF-I, TSH, thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin Attenuated activity of immunoglobulins isolated from patients with phospholipid and TED (TAO or GO) It is possible.

[0017] As explained above, TED (TAO or GO) is still not adequately treated. Before the approval of teprotumumab (TEPEZZA™), the main Medical therapy consisting of ticoids has limited efficacy and safety concerns. Broad-spectrum immunosuppressive treatments for D, such as glucocorticoids and rituximab, have been shown to reduce the incidence of ptosis. It is well known that cumulative administration of three different ivGCs limits the reduction in IVG production. Large-scale RC using doses (2.25 g, 4.98 g, and 7.47 g of methylprednisolone) At T, the average reduction in protrusion was 0.6 mm, even with the highest dose. There was no difference in the results with the use of ximab. Furthermore, the progression of TED (TAO or GO) , usually requiring less invasive surgical treatment such as orbital decompression. Previous therapies for the treatment of O) have not only had limited efficacy, as discussed above, but also The IGF-1R inhibitor monoclonal antibody Tesla has been used in clinical trials for several years. Protumumab has proven effective in treating TED.

[0018] As stated by those skilled in the art, "the most remarkable and unexpected effect of teprotumumab is a treatment-related reduction in exophthalmos [i.e., proptosis].” Immunosuppressive treatment of GO It is well known that the reduction of exophthalmos is limited, but the method disclosed herein The method reduced exophthalmos by an average of 2.46 mm (compared to 0.15 mm in the placebo group). These results could not have been achieved with any medical treatment and were not achieved with orbital resorption. The results are comparable to those obtained with pressure (Piantanida, E. and Bartalen a,LJ Endocrinol Invest,2017,40,885-887) .

[0019] Although teprotumumab is effective in treating TED, it is not available to all patients for various reasons. may not necessarily benefit from treatment with teprotumumab. Alternative treatments for TED, e.g. For different drugs that can be administered by alternative models and alternative schedules There remains an unmet medical need for DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0206] The "intention-to-treat" population is all clinical trial subjects randomized according to the randomized treatment assignment. Randomized controlled trials often face two major challenges: non-compliance and cross-over. One promising solution to this problem is the intention-to-treat (ITT) approach. There is a statistical concept called ITT analysis. ITT analysis is an analysis that takes into account non-compliance, protocol deviations, withdrawals, and non-compliance. Anything that happens after randomization is ignored. An intention-to-treat analysis does not consider the original randomized treatment assignment. In the ITT analysis, the evaluation of treatment effect is generally conservative. If complete outcome data are available for all randomized subjects, the intention-to-treat approach is The per-protocol group is a group of any major protocols. Defined as the subset of the ITT population that completed the study without any rule violations. For example, ,Gupta SK,Intention-to-treat concept;A r eview,Perspect Clin Res.2011 Jul-Sep;2(3 ):109-112.

[0207] As used herein, "thyroid eye disease (TED)" and "thyroid-associated eye disease (TAO)" , "thyroid inflammatory eye disease (TIED)", "Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO)" or "Graves' The terms "orbital disease (GO)" and "ocular orbitopathy" refer to the same disorder or condition and are used interchangeably. All of these are part of a family of autoimmune thyroid disorders, most commonly Graves' disease (GD). However, it sometimes refers to inflammatory orbital lesions associated with other diseases, such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

[0208] “exophthalmia” and “exophthalmos” (exophthalmos) halmus), exophthalmia or exorbit The term anterior projection, displacement, bulging or protrusion of an organ (also known as ism) As used herein, this term refers to the projection or displacement of the eyeball from the orbit to the front of the eye. The terms exophthalmos and exophthalmos have similar meanings in some arts and are often used interchangeably. are thought to be used interchangeably in the case of Some attribute exophthalmos to severe or endocrine-related protrusion. Furthermore, for example, patients with TED (TAO or GO) Some people use the term exophthalmos to describe exophthalmos related to a person's eyeballs.

[0209] As used herein, the terms "exophthalmos" and "proptosis" are used interchangeably. It refers to the protrusion, displacement, bulging or protrusion of the anterior side of the eyeball from the orbit. It has an opening for expansion and a hard bony structure, so it is difficult to see the soft tissue of the orbit from the side or back. Any increase in tissue content will result in the eyeball being displaced forward. Protrusion of the globe can be caused by a variety of factors, including infection, inflammation, tumor, trauma, metastasis, endocrine disorders, vascular diseases, and extraorbital pathologies. TED (TAO or GO) can occur as a result of several disease processes, including: is recognized as the most common cause of exophthalmos in adults. Bilateral (as is common in TAO or GO) or unilateral (as is common in orbital tumors) It can be either lateral or non-lateral.

[0210] The degree of exophthalmos can be measured using an exophthalmometer, which measures the degree of forward displacement of the eyeball. This device allows for the corneal graft to be inserted from the lateral orbital rim to the cornea. It is possible to measure the distance ahead to the front.

[0211] Using computed tomography (CT) scans and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), The degree of exophthalmos or proptosis may also be assessed. CT scans may be used to assess TED (TAO or GO). It is an excellent imaging diagnostic method for diagnosing hypertrophied extraocular muscles. In addition to providing information about the underlying cause of the eye injury, a CT scan can also provide the surgeon or clinician with information about if orbital decompression is required. provides a depiction of the bony anatomy of the fossa. MRI with its multiplanar and inherent contrast capabilities provides a Provides excellent images of the orbital contents without the radiation exposure associated with T-scan examinations. provides better images of the optic nerve, orbital fat, and extraocular muscles, whereas CT scans do not provide a clearer picture of the orbit. The bone structure can be better observed.

[0212] Orbital ultrasound is a rapid and reliable method of evaluation, and is therefore often used in conjunction with TED (TAO or It can also be used to diagnose and evaluate GO. Hyperreflectivity and hypertrophy of the extraocular muscles are easily recognized. Serial ultrasound examinations can also be used to assess the progression or stability of ocular disease.

[0213] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that protrusions can be easily achieved based on currently available technology or technology that may become available in the future. Or the best manner for diagnosing and assessing the degree of exophthalmos can be determined.

[0214] The normal range of protrusion is generally accepted to be 12-21 mm; It should be noted that the values ​​of β vary with age, sex, and race. In healthy adult Caucasian men, the mean distance of exophthalmos is 16.5 mm, with the upper limit of normal being 21. In adult African Americans, the average is 18.2 mm, which is above normal. The limits are 24.1 mm for men and 22.7 mm for women. The average was 15.2 mm in men and 14.8 mm in women, and in Iran, the average was 20-70 years old. The mean mean for the two groups was 14.7 mm. In Taiwanese adults, normal subjects and subjects with Graves' ophthalmopathy were In comparison with the subjects with normal blood pressure, the average reading was 13.9 mm, while in the normal group, In the TED group, it was 18.3 mm.

[0215] Variability may also exist within population groups. In four ethnic groups in southern Thailand, The mean protrusion measurements ranged from 15.4 mm to 16.6 mm. In patients, the median measurement was 13 mm and the upper limit was 17 mm. In their study, the upper limits were 20 mm in men and 16 mm in women.

[0216] The mean or upper limit of exophthalmos or proptosis varies widely, but is greater than 2 mm between the eyes. It is recognized in the art that such differences are meaningful and not normal.

[0217] Any person skilled in the art, such as an ophthalmologist, surgeon, or other clinician skilled in the knowledge and treatment of eye disorders, For example, what is the normal value for prominence based on the subject's age, sex, and race? Know and have the ability to diagnose or assess the presence or absence of protrusion and track its progression do.

[0218] Activity measurement or evaluation Several classification systems have been devised to assess the clinical manifestations of TED (TAO or GO). In 1969, Werner established the NOSPECS classification (physical signs or symptoms) Symptoms reported include no symptoms, signs only, soft tissue lesions, proptosis, extraocular muscle signs, corneal lesions and blindness. (Werner, SCAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology almology, 1969, 68, no. 4, 646-648).

[0219] A revised version of NOSPECS was also published by Werner in 1977, and since then It is widely used (Werner, SCAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology, 1977, 83, no. 5, 725-727). The classification grades clinical severity and is divided into active TED (inflammatory progressive) and non- It does not provide a means to distinguish between active TED (non-inflammatory, stationary). Based solely on the severity of symptoms, without regard to whether the disease is active or inactive. In 1989, Mourits et al. The Clinical Activity Score (CAS) was described as a method for assessing the severity of sexual disease (Mour Its et al.,British Journal of Ophthalmol ogy, 1989, 73, no. 8, 639-644). This score is a classic indicator of acute inflammation. The classification of active and inactive disease is based on clinical signs (pain, redness, swelling, and functional impairment). This classification was proposed as a clinical classification for easily distinguishing between the two conditions, and was revised in 1977. (Mourits et al., Clinical Endocrinology (Y, 1997.47, no.1, 9-14). This protocol is further explained below. .

[0220] As used herein, the term CAS refers to the protocols and methods described below. This refers to the scores as disclosed in the table below. If each of the parameters listed is present, 1 point is awarded. The sum of all points is The total defines clinical activity and provides the CAS. For patients with GO, only items 1-7 are scored. A CAS of ≥3 / 7 indicates active GO. For patients assessed at the second or subsequent time point (typically 1-3 months later), items 8-10 The 10-item CAS scale is also scored, with a CAS of ≥ 4 / 10 indicating active disease. Similar studies exist, but clinical trials are more applicable to longitudinal studies involving multiple assessments. Scales of items are commonly used.

[0221] CAS consists of the following seven components: 1. Spontaneous retrobulbar pain, 2. Pain with intentional eye movement (upward, leftward, and downward gaze), 3. Conjunctival redness, 4. Redness of the eyelids, 5. Chemoedema (swelling / edema of the conjunctiva), 6. Swelling of the caruncle / folds, and 7. Swelling of the eyelids. Each component is scored as present (1 point) or absent (0 point). The score for each effectiveness assessment is the sum of all items present, The scale ranges from 0 to 7, with 0 or 1 representing inactive disease and 7 representing severe active eye disease. A change of more than 2 is considered clinically significant.

[0222] Item 1, spontaneous orbital pain, is pain or pressure on or behind the eye. This pain may be due to excessive synthesis of extracellular matrix, fluid accumulation, When the volume of the orbital tissue increases due to cell infiltration and cell swelling, the pressure inside the orbit increases. Item 2, which causes orbital pain when gazed at, is the upper, Pain in the eye when looking or trying to look downward or to the side, i.e. upward, downward, or to the side Pain with eye movement or pain in the eye when trying to gaze upward, downward or to the side This type of pain can be painful, especially when trying to gaze upwards, as it stretches the inflamed muscles. "Stretching pain" can be caused by an increase in intraorbital pressure. It is not elicited by pressing the eyeball with a finger, as would be expected if These types of pain can also be reduced after anti-inflammatory treatment. Pain is directly related to autoimmune inflammation in the orbit, which can be used to assess the activity of TED. It is believed to be useful for

[0223] Swelling in TED (TAO or GO) is caused by chemosis (edema of the conjunctiva) and the caruncle and / or lacrimal gland. These are seen as swelling of the semilunar folds or lumbar folds. Both are signs of TED activity. Swollen eyelids may be caused by edema, fat loss from the orbital septum, or fibrous degeneration. In addition to swelling, other symptoms that may indicate active TED include redness and / or or pain in the conjunctiva, eyelid, caruncle and / or semilunar fold.

[0224] Other grading systems for the assessment of TED (TAO or GO) have also been developed. Two such examples are the VISA classification (visual acuity, inflammation, strabismus and appearance) (Dolman ,P.J.,and Rootman,J.,Ophthalmic Plastic and and Reconstructive Surgery,2006,22,no.5,319 -324 and Dolman,PJ,Best Practice&Resea rch Clinical Endocrinology&Metabolism,20 12,26,no.3,229-248) and the European Group of G raves'Orbitopathy (EUGOGO) classification (Bartalena, L. ,et al.,European Journal of Endocrinolog y,2008,158,no.3,273-285). Both systems are NOS Guidelines for assessing signs of activity and degree of severity based on the PECS and CAS classifications More importantly, they allow clinicians to guide the treatment of GO patients. EUGOGO is a European service, while VISA is a North American service. and Canada. VISA and EUGOGO protocols Because the rules are not compatible, only one of them must be used as the reference for a particular patient. Not possible.

[0225] Graves' Ophthalmopathy Quality of Life (GO-QoL) In addition to proptosis (or exophthalmos) and CAS, the quality of life in Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO-Qo Quality of life (QoL) was also assessed using the QoL questionnaire. In some embodiments, the method is designed to determine whether the patient has improved quality of life after the treatment. The questionnaire may be prepared by administering an antibody or antigen-binding fragment thereof to a subject in accordance with the methods disclosed herein. side effects after treatment with steroids compared with glucocorticoids or It is possible to determine whether the

[0226] The GO-QoL questionnaire has two self-assessment subscales. The first subscale concerns the impact of visual function on daily activities, while the second subscale concerns self-perception. Each subscale has eight questions, each of which is about the perceived impact of one's appearance. ) Yes - Totally agree; (ii) Yes - Somewhat disagree; or (iii) No - Answer "I don't think so at all." Score each question from 0 to 2, then add up the raw scores. Mathematically convert the symptoms to a 0-100 scale, with 0 being the most negative impact on quality of life. 8% change on a 0-100 scale. The score combination is considered clinically meaningful. The raw scores from the test are taken and converted back into a single 0-100 scale.

[0227] Severity measurement For the palpebral fissure, the patient should sit relaxed at a fixed distance and look in primary position. In the case of eyelid swelling, the measurement / assessment is based on the "absent" category. The severity of the symptoms is either "bad / pending," "moderate," or "severe." Eyelid redness is not present. Conjunctival redness is either absent or present. do.

[0228] Chemoedema may be either absent or present. Inflammation of the caruncle or fold may be present or absent. Exophthalmos can be either absent or present for an individual patient. The same intercanthal distance was measured in millimeters using a TEL exophthalmometer. Subjective diplopia was scored from 0 to 3 (0 = no diplopia; 1 = intermittent, i.e., with fatigue or Diplopia in the primary position of gaze upon waking; 2 = non-constant, i.e., diplopia at the extremes of gaze; 3 = non-constant, i.e., diplopia at the extremes of gaze; = constant, i.e., continuous diplopia in primary or reading position). In the case of ocular muscle involvement, Corneal lesions are either absent / punctate or keratopathy / ulcer In the case of optic nerve lesions, i.e., best corrected visual acuity, color vision, optic disc, relative afferent pupillary defect Symptoms of optic nerve compression may be present or absent. If so, check the field of view.

[0229] Severity classification Sight-threatening thyroid eye disease: Patients with thyroid optic neuropathy (DON) and / or corneal disorders. The category warrants immediate intervention.

[0230] Moderate to severe thyroid eye disease: Eye disease may require immunosuppression (if active) or surgical intervention. The risk of injury (if inactive) is sufficiently high to justify the risk Patients without sight-threatening disease. Patients with moderate to severe thyroid eye disease usually undergo one of the following: had one or more of the following: eyelid retraction ≥ 2 mm, moderate or severe soft tissue lesions, Exophthalmos ≥ 3 mm, normal for race and sex, non-permanent or permanent Diplopia.

[0231] Mild thyroid eye disease: The features of thyroid eye disease are insufficient to justify immunosuppression or surgical treatment. Patients usually experience only one or more of the following: Present: Minor eyelid retraction (<2mm), mild soft tissue lesions, exophthalmos, but not related to race and gender The normal value for the stenosis is <3mm, there is no transient diplopia or double vision, and the lubricant Responsive corneal exposure.

[0232] Assessment of diplopia by Gorman grading The Gorman scale for subjective diplopia includes four categories: No vision (non-existent), double vision (intermittent) when patient is tired or wakes up, extremes of gaze Diplopia (non-constant) in the primary or reading position and persistent diplopia (constant) in the primary or reading position.
