At ARVO 2022, Dr Jason S. Slakter presents data on the efficacy and safety of OPT-302 when combined with ranibizumab for polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy.

Emily Kaiser, editor of Modern Retina™, sits down with Dr Jason S. Slakter to discuss his ARVO 2022 presentation, “Efficacy and Safety of OPT-302 in Combination with Ranibizumab for Polypoidal Choroidal Vasculopathy.” OPT-302 (Opthea Limited) 2 mg combination therapy results indicated a safety profile consistent with the standard of care anti-VEGF-A monotherapy, but also indicated superior improvements in best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and anatomic improvements compared to monthly ranibizumab (Lucentis®) monotherapy in patients with polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV).
