Treating retinal vasculopathies with compound-meglumine
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11951115B2) discloses a method for treating patients suffering from retinal vasculopathy, specifically diabetic macular edema (DME) or diabetic retinopathy (DR). The method involves administering a therapeutically effective dose of a meglumine salt of a compound of Formula I to the patient. The treatment is targeted at patients with specific baseline characteristics, including best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), previous anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment, central subfield thickness (CST), hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels, and intraocular pressure (IOP).
Furthermore, the patent outlines various dosing regimens for the administration of the Compound-meglumine, including loading doses and maintenance doses, to achieve desired outcomes such as CST reduction, absence of macular fluid and exudation, improvement in BCVA, reduction in ocular avascular area, regression in neovascularization, and improvement in diabetic retinopathy severity scale (DRSS). The method also specifies the frequency of administration, ranging from every 2 months to every 12 months, based on the patient's response to treatment. Overall, the patent provides a detailed protocol for the effective treatment of retinal vasculopathy, offering a comprehensive approach to managing these conditions in patients with specific baseline characteristics and treatment history.
