Previously, Teva was established as the European commercialisation partner of FYB201, Formycon's biosimilar to ranibizumab (Lucentis).

Panelists discuss how aflibercept 8 mg demonstrates improved durability and maintenance of visual gains compared with 2-mg dosing, potentially reducing treatment burden while maintaining a similar safety profile.

The collaboration between KIST and Huons BioPharma will span 14 months.

Panelists discuss how treat-and-extend dosing with aflibercept 2 mg allows for individualized treatment intervals while maintaining vision gains. However, optimal extension timing must be carefully determined based on disease activity markers.

In this study, researchers examine immune mechanisms in ocular diseases like uveitis, AMD, DR, and GO, highlighting microglial roles, targeted therapies, and promising advances in immunotherapy.

The conference will be held January 13-16, 2025 in San Francisco, CA.

The publication is entitled, “Design and Characterization of a Novel Intravitreal Dual-Transgene Genetic Medicine for Neovascular Retinopathies.”

Panelists discuss how aflibercept’s molecular structure contributes to its clinical efficacy as a standard treatment for retinal vascular diseases.

Panelists discuss how anti-VEGF therapies have dramatically improved visual outcomes in patients with age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema over the past decade. Key challenges persist, including treatment burden, adherence, and identifying optimal dosing regimens for individual patients.

Espansione Group is known for photobiomodulation (PBM) technology – the Light Modulation Low-level Light Therapy (LLLT) along with the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology.

ONS-5010 did not meet the pre-specified non-inferiority endpoint at week 8.

The company begins Phase 1 trials of oral GAL-101, targeting amyloid beta aggregation. Promising safety and efficacy in ophthalmic models suggest potential for treating dry AMD, glaucoma, and neurodegenerative eye diseases.

EyePoint Pharmaceuticals has dosed the first patient in the LUCIA Phase 3 trial of Duravyu for wet AMD. The study evaluates Duravyu’s efficacy, durability, and re-dosing every 6 months in both treatment-naïve and previously treated patients. Topline data is anticipated in 2026.

The trial is expected to close randomization in early December 2024.

Sozinibercept will be featured as part of an oral presentation at the annual FLORetina Congress being held on December 5-8, 2024 in Florence, Italy.

In a study, a team of Korean researchers developed an AI model using OCT images to predict neovascular AMD treatment outcomes after anti-VEGF injections. The model highlights AI’s potential in personalized ophthalmic care.
