New drug candidate is promising therapeutic option for angiogenic retinal diseases

October 20, 2015 //  by stanselb

A research team led by scientists at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) and the University of New Mexico School of Medicine has identified a small molecule that treats animal models of aged macular degeneration (AMD) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) by preventing the overgrowth of blood vessels that are characteristic of these two retinal diseases.  The new findings, described in the …

Scientists Develop Animal Model for TB-Related Blindness

December 23, 2011 //  by stanselb

Tuberculosis experts at Johns Hopkins and elsewhere have closely mimicked how active but untreated cases of the underlying lung infection lead to permanent eye damage and blindness in people.Lead study investigator and Johns Hopkins infectious disease specialist Petros Karakousis, M.D., says the new animal model should hasten development of a badly needed, early diagnostic test for the …

Mayo Clinic work shows possible Lucentis side effect

November 23, 2011 //  by stanselb

At the Amercian Academy of Opthalmology 115th Annual Meeting, findings were presented from a retrospective study conducted after a Mayo Clinic opthalmologist noticed an increase in intraoccular pressure (IOP) in her patients using Genentech' (Roche) Lucentis (ranibizumab), an FDA-approved drug for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). MARINA (Minimally Classic/OccultTrial of …
