The FDA has approved Regeneron Pharmaceuticals’ aflibercept injection, Eylea, for the treatment of all stages of diabetic retinopathy.
The approval was based on results of the phase 3 PANORAMA trial, which enrolled 402 patients to investigate Eylea’s effect on the improvement of moderately severe to severe non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy compared with sham injection.
The study included an observational sham injection group and two Eylea treatment groups. After initial monthly dosing protocols, Eylea was dosed every 8 weeks or every 16 weeks, according to a Regeneron press
