A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11873334B2) discloses a method for treating various ocular conditions in a subject by administering a specific antibody. The antibody comprises a first domain that activates Tie2 and a second domain that binds to and inhibits the function of VEGF. This method is particularly useful for treating conditions such as diabetic retinopathy, neovascularization, vascular leak, increased intraocular pressure, ocular edema, diabetic macular edema, wet age-related macular degeneration, ocular inflammation, and retinal vein occlusion.

The method allows for the administration of the antibody through various routes such as intravitreal, subcutaneous, or systemic, with the therapeutically effective amount ranging from about 0.25 mg to 200 mg. Additionally, the patent specifies that the subject being treated is a human, and the therapeutically effective amount can vary from about 1 mg/kg to 10 mg/kg or from about 1 mg to 50 mg, depending on the specific ocular condition being targeted. This patent highlights a novel approach to treating ocular conditions by targeting both Tie2 activation and VEGF inhibition, offering potential benefits for patients suffering from a range of eye-related issues.
