Injectable hydrogels as matrix to retain microparticles for controlled delivery of anti-VEGF proteins for ocular applications
Wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) or diabetic macular edema (DME) are potentially retinal diseases and they are treated by monthly or bimonthly intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) agents such as aflibercept (Eylea®) and ranibizumab (Lucentis®). Because...
