VIDEO: Researchers investigate tyrosine kinase inhibitors for wet AMD
In this Healio Video Perspective, Sophie J. Bakri, MD, discusses data presented at the Retina Society meeting that investigated the antiangiogenic profiles of three tyrosine kinase inhibitors: vorolanib, axitinib and sunitinib.
“While all the TKIs that we studied can inhibit all VEGF receptors and were shown to inhibit angiogenesis better than bevacizumab, vorolanib accomplished these things without impacting Tie-2 function and without binding melanin,” she said.
