EYET - From Yahoo thread


eyet - presentation - A lot of comments on Lucentis. I thought this was a very good presentation. I think the hit on eyet may be over done in the near term.

27% increase in vision in Macugen in early disease was close to Lucentis.

Need for head to head trials and 2 years of Lucentis data.

50% more injections with Lucentis over 2 years.

Data at ARVO presentation shows the vegf is needed for Nuron survival. Lucentis may hurt that process by blocking all vegf.

Macugen only drug started on Diabetic Rhet. phase 3 and retinal vein inclusion.

Macugen with PDT - phase 3 started. early small study phase 1 60% 3 line gain

Macugen with microspheres - Less dosing
