Dual-Target Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Therapy for Treating Ocular Neovascularization

Value Proposition· Comprehensive Targeting: Engineered antagonist proteins combine elements of both VEGF receptor (VEGFR)-1 and VEGFR-2 to target all human VEGF ligands and sequester 2 ligand homodimers simultaneously.· Superior Inhibition: Comprehensive ligand blockade inhibits neovascularization more effectively than existing VEGF-A only...

Artificial Intelligence to Predict Onset of Retinopathy of Prematurity

Unmet NeedAccording to the NIH, approximately 14,000 – 16,000 of prematurely born infants within the United States are affected by a form of retinopathy of prematurity (see NIH). Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), is due to incomplete retinal vascularization that has the potential to lead to visual impairment as the infant grows. Currently, there are...

Efficient generation of retinal photoreceptors from stem/progenitor cells.

Unmet NeedApproximately 253 million people worldwide live with vision impairment. Of those with vision impairment, approximately 15% are blind. Most human blindness is caused by the dysfunction or death of retinal photoreceptors. For many eye disorders, there is no way to reverse photoreceptor loss, and efforts to treat vision loss are aimed at slowing...
