Faricimab

Faricimab, an overall good safety and tolerability profile, is a bispecific antibody targeting Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A). Faricimab prevents retinal vascular leakage, cell death and inflammation in retinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and sCNV mouse models. Faricimab demonstrates statistically superior visual acuity gains versus Ranibizumab (HY-P9951). Faricimab can be used for retinal disorders, such as age-related macular degeneration (w-AMD), diabetic macular edema (DME) and macular edema following retinal vein occlusion (RVO)[1][2][3][4][5].
