The wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) therapy market has long been dominated by three VEGF inhibitors—Roche / Genentech / Chugai’s Avastin, Roche / Genentech / Novartis’s Lucentis, and Regeneron / Bayer HealthCare / Santen’s Eylea—but competition has intensified since the U.S. approval of Novartis’s Beovu in late 2019. We expect this launch to be followed by six other late-phase therapies for wet AMD, and biosimilars are on the horizon; thus, Eylea’s and Lucentis’s positions will be increasingly threatened as the market becomes more fragmented. In contrast to the treatment of wet AMD, management of patients with dry AMD is limited to minimally effective vitamin formulations because no prescription therapies are approved for this large and underserved subpopulation. However, several novel therapies are advancing in the pipeline for dry AMD, increasing the possibility that an effective therapy may soon emerge. Questions Answered:
