From EU label extension:

<Said Michael Devoy, MD, chief medical officer of Bayer, “This new treatment regimen for Eylea has the potential to reduce the number of injections and clinic visits to less than 4 in the second year for certain neovascular AMD patients, while still maintaining strong visual outcomes and the ability to see.” >

To effective compete with iv-avastin, modified 2-nd year (and further years) of ~4 injections/year bring Eylea PRICE-COMPETITIVE! That was why REGN want strong label on 12/16 w regimen addition to label. However, appears that Japan data do not apply to US-market...something that REGN need to evaluate in future. IF 4/6 mg Eylea dose can extend interval to 12/16w in wast majority after first 3 monthly injection...patent expiration IP issue and market straight will tip over toward REGN, in their favor.

REGN management need to be bit more aggressive on this issue, without giving to many details to competitors!
