Dave: you make some good points, but they don’t alter the fact that today’s data were unimpressive in comparison to the Mexican results from two years ago.

GENR has its work cut out to prove that Evizon is safe long-term and is more than just a glorified placebo. Regards, Dew

Dave et al:

I see the market for AMD treatments proceeding in three steps:

1. Find drugs that restore some of the vision loss caused by AMD. So far, Lucentis appears to be the only drug that can do this with regularity.

2. Augment the drugs in item 1) with drugs or slow-eluting devices that can preserve as much of the restored vision as possible.

3. Fine-tune the treatments in 1) and 2) by making them better, cheaper, and more convenient.

--
Convenience does not appear on this list until step 3. GENR longs have made too big a deal about the inconvenience of regular intravitreal injections, IMHO.
