AAO Late Breaker: Ang-2 Mediation in DME Therapy

Published: Nov. 25, 2020, 5:01 a.m.

The next generation of therapy for DME patients will require looking beyond the VEGF pathway. In the phase 2 BOULEVARD study, researchers are assessing the safety and efficacy of the angiopoietin-2 mediator faricimab (Roche/Genentech) for the treatment of DME. Could the angiopoietin pathway present a new option for patients? Karl Csaky, MD, PhD, sits down with NRR to review data from the study, which were shared at this year’s AAO Annual Meeting Late Breakers session.  This editorially independent podcast is supported with advertising.
