Faricimab, a bispecific antibody that targets the endothelial cell growth factors vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and angiopoietin-2 (Angpt2), was recently approved for treating neovascular age-related macular degeneration and diabetic macular edema. Here, Koh and Augustin review how mechanistic studies have translated into therapies, while Campochiaro evaluates their impact and value for clinical practice.
法西单抗是一种靶向血管内皮生长因子-A(VEGF-A)和血管生成素-2(Angpt2)这两种内皮细胞生长因子的双特异性抗体,最近被批准用于治疗新生血管性年龄相关性黄斑变性和糖尿病性黄斑水肿。在此, Koh和Augustin回顾了机制研究如何转化为治疗方法,而Campochiaro则评估了它们对临床实践的影响和价值。
