ABOUT
With the recent FDA-approval of Bayer’s Eylea HD 8mg as a durable long-term treatment for Wet AMD and the approval of Genentech’s Vabysmo to be used as therapeutic treatment for RVO, 2024 was predicted to be a big year for the retinal vascular disease drug development as the demand is increasing for therapies to slow down or halt the progression of retinal neovascularization, providing a shining opportunity for drug developers!
Designed alongside experts from retinal preclinical and clinical R&D from the likes of Novartis, Bayer, Boehringer Ingelheim, Ocular Therapeutics and Roche, this industry-focussed agenda tackled the preclinical and translational challenges when fast-tracking drugs into the clinic as well as discovery of novel targets and new modalities to accommodate for the large untreated patient population suffering from retinal neovascularization and blindness.
